5.78 WINE – RECOMMENDED DRIP LINES
Recommended Drip Lines
Drip irrigation provides
uniformity across years of production due to less reliance on rainfall.
However, just as important, is uniformity across the field. You do not want
uneven water and fertilizer applications where some vines receive too much
treatment, and others receive too little. For a high-quality harvest, you need
uniform application to all vines.
This is achieved through Pressure Compensating (PC) Drip Lines. When you
are on hilly place. In farms on flat plots, you use cheaper SUBSURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION
(SDI) T-TAPE.
PC Drip Lines contain drippers that each have a flow regulating membrane.
This membrane compensates for changes in pressure across the line so that every
dripper emits the prescribed water flow per hour.
As the diagram below shows, over a slope of five
meters, the pressure increases by 26% toward the bottom of the slope. Without a
PC drip line, the result would be that vines at the lower end of the slope
would receive 25% more water and nutrients then those at the highest elevation.
With PC drip lines, all vines receive the same water regardless of the
pressure.
It is not just sloping ground, pressure also fluctuates across blocks due
to friction of the tube. For vineyards where precision is critical, PC drip
lines are a must.
We have the widest range and highest quality pressure compensated drip
lines available. Options include cylindrical, flat and on-line drippers,
anti-siphon and no-drain options (for SUBSURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION), and a wide
range of flow rates and diameters.
