CHAPTER :4 METHODOLOGY 4.1 GENERAL: 4.1.1 IRRIGATION DEFINATION: Irrigation is a define as to the process of artificially applying water to the soil for various crops. 4.1.2 IRRIGATION ENGINEERING: Irrigation engineering is the science deal with operation and maintenance, planning, construction, designing of different irrigation works. It includes , Construction of head works Weir and barrage are constructed Canal systems is construction Construction of hydroelectric power Reservoir and dams are created 4.2 METOD OF IRRIGATION: The following the methods of irrigation are as below: Surface irrigation methods subsurface irrigation methods Sprinkler irrigation method Drip irrigation method Flow chart of various irrigation method 4.3 Drip Irrigation: 4.3.1 Introduction: Drip irrigation is one of the modern development method of irrigation it is becoming increase in popular in areas with water scarcity and salt problems. It is also know as a trickle irrigation system. Drip irrigation method was introduced in Israel. In India being increasing in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Kerala, and Karnataka.
In drip irrigation, water is applied in the form of drops directly near the roots of the plants through a special outlet device called an emitter. these emitters have drip nozzles to supply water very slow rate, these rate from about 2-10 litres per hours. The water applied is just sufficient to keep the soil moisture within the desirable range for the plant growths. 4.3.2 Types of drip irrigation system Surface drip irrigation system: The water on ground that seeps down to the plant roots is known the surface drip irrigation system. Subsurface drip irrigation system: The water under the surface of the ground that is already at the plant roots is known as a subsurface drip irrigation system.
4.3.3 Components of drip irrigation system: Motor Head unit Pressure guage PVC pipe Fitting End cap Valve Punching Sub main pipe Lateral pipe Advantages of drip irrigation : Water requirement is less. Evaporation losses are quite low. Water logging is avoided. The drip irrigation is quite suitable for small trees and widely spaced plants. It is most suitable for irrigation of fruit plants.
Weed growth is minimized. The method is quite suitable for where the water is limited. Soil erosion is minimized. Labour cost is less than other irrigation methods. Reduce the risk of disease. Disadvantages of drip irrigation : Initial cost of various components is very high.
Due to change in the crops may result in frequent replacement of trickle lines. This method is not suitable for closely planted crops. The sun can affect the tubes use for drip irrigation, shortening their usable life. If the water is not properly filtered and the equipment not properly maintained, it can result in clogging.
Drip tape causes extra cleanup after harvest. Comparison between different irrigation system: Surface irrigation Sprinkler irrigation Drip irrigation Highest water requirement Low water requirement 65% of that required in surface irrigation Least water requirement 20 to 30% of the required in surface irrigation Problem of soil erosion Soil erosion is controlled soil No soil erosion Suitable for all types of soils expect very light soils Suitable for all types of soils, including highly permeable soils Suitable for all types of soils, including less permeable soils Land is lost under canal section and field channels Maximum use of land Maximum use of land as no need of field channels etc. Requires preparation of land No land levelling is required No land levelling is required Initial charges are negligible but labour charges are high High initial cost and operating charges Low initial cost and operating(labour) charges All the surface soil of saturated Entire surface area is wetted Least surface area near root of the plant are wetted Wasteful use of water Water is used effectively compare to surface irrigation No wastage of water as water is directly supplied to root zone High percolation losses and leaching down of fertilizers Localized application of fertilizer is absent Minimum percolation loss, Reduce leaching down fertilizer Less effective in water distribution efficiency 65 to 70% effective in water distribution efficiency 90% effective in water distribution efficiency Wild weed and pest growth Weed and pest growth and diseases are less Weed, pest and insect troubles are least CHAPTER:5 DESIGN OF SYSTEM 5.1 WORK FLOW CHART: INTRODUCTION AIM/OBJECTIVE SITE SELECTION & VISIT DATA COLLECTION CALCULATION WORK DESIGNING OF SYSTEM CONCLUSION 5.2 DETAIL OF THE FIELD UNDER PROJECT: Survey number 18 Area under irrigation 1.99 ha (19900 m2 ) Crop Banana + chilli 5.3 DESCPTION OF FIELD: We visited the Rajubhai’s farm in Bardoli, collected the detail of surface drip irrigation system and we understood the whole system, we observed that in the farm the irrigation canal is not available so, farmer used private boring system and fulfils the requirement and the drip irrigation system is good workable.
