Drip irrigation
Drip Irrigation
Drip irrigation is an efficient and cost-effective method of watering gardens and yards, especially popular in arid regions and increasingly being adopted in the Northeast. Unlike other irrigation methods like sprinklers, which are only 65-75% efficient, drip irrigation achieves up to 90% efficiency in delivering water directly to plants. It minimizes water runoff and evaporation, ensuring that water reaches the plant root zone where it’s needed most. This targeted delivery system results in healthier plants while conserving water.
Benefits of Drip Irrigation
Drip irrigation works by placing tubing with emitters along the ground beside plants. These emitters gradually release water directly into the soil at the root zone, maintaining optimal moisture levels for improved plant productivity and quality. Additionally, drip irrigation offers several benefits:
- Prevents disease by reducing water contact with plant leaves, stems, and fruit.
- Keeps the rows between plants dry, making access easier and reducing weed growth.
- Saves time, money, and water due to its efficiency.
- Decreases labor as the system requires less manual intervention.
- Increases effectiveness on uneven terrain, ensuring consistent watering.
- Reduces nutrient and water leaching below the root zone, maximizing resource use.
Venturi / 2 inch
Venturi injectors provide an efficient and cost-effective way to deliver liquid nutrients through drip irrigation, ensuring precise fertilizer application. Made from durable, chemical-resistant plastic, they offer proportional dosing based on the system’s flow rate.
- Venturi is used for injecting fertilizers and chemicals through a drip irrigation system.
- Venturi fertilizer injectors are a highly efficient and cost-effective method to deliver liquid nutrients to plant roots via drip irrigation.
- Fertigation occurs simultaneously with irrigation.
- Liquid fertilizers are absorbed more effectively by plants.
- The system is easy to install.
- It is both economical and highly efficient.
- Ensures consistent and regulated fertilizer injection.
