1. Provides watering opportunities during any time of the day without being dependent upon wind speed.
2. Facilitates farming by utilizing modest water applications without running the risk of plant stress.
3. Energy dependency is reduced significantly since watering can be done via a low pressure area.
4. Increases efficiency and quality of productfrom 20-90%.
5. Product ripens 2-3 week earlier.
6. Cultural transactions can be executed far more easily. Working for demand reduces.
7. Water loss becomes minimal and water savings increase by 50% via surface flowing and vaporization.
8. Activities such as applying manure and disinfectant can be executed more efficiently via the drip irrigation systemwithout running the risk of burning/origin problem (from diluted compost solution).
9. Provides a good air exchange for the land.
10. Reduces disease and rate of foreign plant development plus the cost to peck up the ground via workmanship is quite low.
11. Prevents the loss of ground and soil erosion.
12. It is easily used on downgrade land.
13. It causes less ground stiffening.
14. It is far easier to water wide fields utilizing very little flow, plus setting and removing is easy.
15. Effectiveness of practicable ground water increases, enabling plants to grow more heartily. You will benefit from a high quality, fruitful and standardized product.
16. The drippers placed by fixed distance in the pipe provide the water given to the origin of plant. The growth of the plant is thereby standardized, providing continuous field capacity due to short and discrete water transactions.
17. It ensures efficient water usage, even if the recources contain a high degree of salt. (By the way — the loss ration for plants actually reduces!)
18. You benefit from a 60% savings in compost and decontamination costs (compared to classicl irrigation systems).
19. Loss of water never happens since surface flow and outflow to the depth are both prevented.
20. It provides watering possibilities, even in fields that don’t have enough natural water resources.
21. It provides a one-time reaping opportunity since equal water and compost sharing between plants generates great benefits.
22. Plants need greater origin to obtain water in applied via classical irrigation systems.
23. Plants benefitting from a Drip Irrigation System thrive since water is applied directly to the origin. Additionally, this method significantly reduces disease and bacteria propogation.
24. Drip irrigation systems can be easily applied whenever desired in specific amounts according to climate conditions, special demands of plants and their growth periods.
25. Drip irrigation systems are never adversely effected by wind, rugged grounds or thermal fluctuations like traditional irrigation systems because they are 100% homogeneous — they provides equal watering possibilities.
