Choose Ideal Sprinkler Product For Your Farm:
In the Sprinkler System, the distance between the sprinklers is primarily determined based on the planting pattern of the field crops and the agriculture mechanical vehicles and tools used in the Field. Nevertheless, there are other factors to consider. The closer the sprinklers are spaced, the more units and pipes you will require, and the higher your sprinkler system cost will be. On the other hand, wider spacing makes it harder to obtain uniform water distribution, especially in wind areas.
- Sprinklers Flow Rate And Overall System Precipitation Rate
It is important to choose a sprinkler solution that can provide the daily crop needs and avoid run-off that creates uneven water distribution and soil erosion. You should look for a precision irrigation system whose precipitation rate correlates to the soil’s infiltration capacity. Unlike center pivots or rain guns which have high hourly flow, Precision sprinkler systems have low to medium precipitation rates, so they don’t generate runoff.
- The Droplet Size Of Sprinklers
Aggressive jets can injure young crops, expose seeds, and create soil erosion or provoke soil crusting. on the other hand, very fine jets can produce small droplets of water which may shift with the wind or evaporate affecting the uniform distribution of the water. Look for a sprinklers system that can reach the required distance and maintain even distribution patterns, but will not damage your crops.
