What is Drip Irrigation?

Drip irrigation is the most efficient water and nutrient delivery system for growing plants. It delivers water and nutrients directly and at the right time to the root zone of the plant. Thus, it ensures that each plant receives the water and nutrients it needs at the right time and helps the plants grow at optimum levels. Thanks to drip irrigation, farmers can achieve higher yields while saving on water, fertilizers, energy and even plant protection products.

How does it work?

Water and nutrients are delivered to the field in pipes called "dripper lines," which contain smaller units known as "drippers." Each emitter emits droplets containing water and fertilizer, resulting in water and nutrients being applied directly to the root zone of each plant.
