The advantages of water-saving drip irrigation for fruit trees?

Advantages of drip irrigation for fruit trees 1, increase yield, improve quality because of this compared to other irrigation methods, drip irrigation fruit tree yield due to drip irrigation has a uniform irrigation, irrigation water and fertilizer dissolved in water directly to the fruit tree root zone, can be timely and appropriate to meet the growth of fruit trees need water and nutrients to the advantages of the year to the improvement of the quality of the fruit has been improved. Second, save irrigation water As drip irrigation through the closed pipeline system of irrigation water from the water source directly to the roots of fruit trees, eliminating the channel transmission process of evaporation and seepage loss field runoff and deep seepage loss, etc., so that the irrigation water and only wet the fruit tree root zone of the local soil, but also more than the surface of the irrigation method reduces the plant rows of the soil between the evaporation loss, field runoff and deep seepage loss, etc., so that the utilization rate of irrigation water The utilization rate of irrigation water is significantly improved. The test results show that drip irrigation saves about 50%-70% of water compared with surface irrigation. This is the drought and water shortage of hilly and mountainous areas and high lift irrigation area, make full use of the limited water resources, expanding the irrigation area of fruit trees has a particularly important significance. Third, conducive to the growth and development of fruit trees can effectively promote the growth of the tree, increase the synthesis and accumulation of leaf nutrients Fourth, labor-saving Installation of drip irrigation system in the orchard to achieve the pipeline water transmission and fixed irrigation device (drip head) irrigation, not only greatly improve the irrigation efficiency, but also saves labor. In the hilly area, drip irrigation does not need to build terraces and land leveling, eliminating the need to repair drains, picking up water for medicine and other labor, but also indirectly saves a lot of labor. Fifth, energy saving, low operating costs in the case of wells or irrigation station water supply, due to drip irrigation water, than sprinkler irrigation or surface irrigation to reduce the amount of pumping, so it also reduces the energy consumption and operating costs. Although drip irrigation system operation requires a certain working pressure, more than ground irrigation to consume part of the energy, under the conditions of irrigation, drip irrigation due to water saving and energy savings are generally far more than the drip irrigation energy consumption. Six, you can use salt water drip irrigation As drip irrigation so that the soil around the root system is often kept wet, even if the irrigation water contains more salt, the soil capillary action of the irrigation water and soil salts can be transported to the edge of the wet zone to reduce the salt on the fruit tree hazards. Therefore, in the irrigation water salt content is higher, not suitable for the use of ground irrigation or sprinkler irrigation in the region, you can use drip irrigation for irrigation.
