4. Subsurface trickle
Water applied through small emitter
openings below the soil surface
Basically a surface system that's been
buried (few inches to a couple feet)
Permanent installation that is "out of the
way"
Typical Subsurface Drip Tubing Installation for Row Crops
30 in
Non Wheel-
Track Row
12 14 in
Drip Tubing
Wetting Pattern
60 in
60-inch drip line spacing is satisfactory on silt loam & clay loam soils
Distribution Network
a. Mainline :mainline transports water within
the field and distribute to sub mains
H Qm
Horsepower required (hp) = 75 x p x m
13 x 100
Therefore, gm of bleaching powder required = ----------- = 37 gms
35
Chlorine test
Take 10 ml sample from an emitter
Add drops of free chlorine indicator and count the No. of drops and multiplied
by 0.1 which will give the chlorine content of the irrigation water
ACIDIFICATION
Assume acid treatment is for 30 minutes
Discharge for 30 minutes = 2625 liters
Recommended dosage of 1 liter of acid in 1000 lit of water
2625
Hence, acid needed = ------------ = 2.625 liter of acid
1000
Consider Venturi suction rate = 50 lph
So, Venturi suction volume for 30 minutes = 25 liters
Stalk solution for acid treatment
Hence, Pour 2.625 liter of acid in 22.375 liter of water
