Water Source can be a river, a channel, a hydrant or a bore hole. Also, it is the perfect solution for the untreated or treated waste water disposal (especially used in dairy farms).

Water Supply System - The mainline can be PVC or PE, 100-150-200-225-250 mm in diameter, portable or buried to get the water to the centre pivot base.

Power Requirement

Pumping System - Usually mid size pumps, from 1500-2500 L/min, are used to operate the entire pivot at once.  Only low to moderate pressure is required. The pump can be diesel or electric, single or multiple stage or multiple pumps operating in series or parallel.

Filtration Method - Mechanical: media or screen filtration is required, based on the water quality and sprinkler nozzle sizes.

Equipment Description

Required Pressure - The system operates at a relatively low pressure 25-65 psi (1.7 - 4.5 bar).

Automatic Control System

Topography

Fertigation/Chemigation

Application Efficiency - Under normal operation/management  and maintenance the application efficiency can be up to 85%-95%.
