Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro irrigation, also known as trickle, drip, localized, high frequency, or pressurized irrigation, is an irrigation method that saves water and fertilizer by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either onto the soil surface or directly onto the root zone, through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. It is done throug

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro irrigation, also known as trickle irrigation, drip irrigation, localized irrigation, or high frequency or pressurized irrigation, is an irrigation method that saves water and fertilizer by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either onto the soil surface or directly onto the root zone, through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. It is done through narrow tubes that deliver water directly to the base of the plant. Clogging is a menace in the success of drip irrigation system, and the situation is more complex under subsurface drip irrigation. Irrigation planners and engineers have found a variety of innovative methods to help to minimize clogging. This valuable resource addresses this critical problem, covering: The mechanics and maintenance of micro irrigation systems to prevent clogging Emitter clogging How chemigation, such as acidification and chloration, can be used to help prevent clogging Flushing and filtration systems on the performance of micro irrigation systems How to evaluate the uniformity coefficients How to evaluate micro irrigation systems in connection with municipal wastewater How to minimize clogging when using municipal wastewater The special problem of clogging in subsurface drip irrigation The book will serve as a reference manual for professionals in biological and civil engineering, horticulture, soil and crop science, and agronomy, as well as for graduate and undergraduate students in related fields. It will be a valuable reference for professionals who work with micro irrigation/wastewater and water management, for technical agricultural centers, irrigation centers, agricultural extension services, and other agencies that work with micro irrigation programs.
