You can buy micro-drip irrigation in Ukraine in a different configuration
To be precise, drip irrigation is an optimal water flow system that is delivered to the soil in the form of drops. This allows you to organize the irrigation of plants during a long absence of the owners in the premises, when, thanks to special droppers, the soil will not dry out. But micro-drip irrigation can be organized using a low-pressure fogging system. Moreover, under certain conditions, this will allow fertilizers to be applied.
Misting system for micro-drip irrigation
Not so long ago, we covered the topic of choosing artificial fog systems, where we touched in detail on atomizer or nozzle designs. Depending on the pressure of the system and the characteristics of the spray, you can change it, and using the fogging system, you can do micro-drop irrigation by setting the size of the drop.
Moreover, you can connect such a system to automation and activate it not only in time, but also depending on climatic parameters. For example, when the air temperature rises above a certain norm.
A depressurized fogging system can become a scheduled drip irrigation system in your greenhouse. It can be used for foliar feeding. In this case, it will be necessary to connect to a liquid fertilizer tank or install a separate system for this purpose.
Advantages of mist system for micro-drip irrigation:
- regulation of liquid supply parameters;
- the possibility of carrying out foliar feeding for soluble fertilizers;
- the ability to control the size of the drop;
- low labor intensity;
- scheduled work;
- connection and activation of the system using climate sensors and a hygrometer.
Obviously, such micro-drop irrigation systems with adjustable drop size are in demand in greenhouses, but can also be installed in the field.
Fog system for open farm areas
Large fogging systems can also work in the field, protecting farm plantings from heat and drought. For these purposes, the development of individual equipment is required, in which irrigation will be combined with a drip feeding system. The most expensive element will be the deployment of a mist supply system to the nozzles in the field.
Several foggers can be connected to such a micro-drip irrigation system, which will work according to a predetermined scenario. Despite the high cost of installation, such a system significantly reduces the labor intensity of field irrigation. Fog generating systems can be static or mobile depending on the chosen form factor.
