It is a quick irrigation
equipment for
versatility - the travellers can irrigate a very wide range of
crops and operate well on extremely undulating terrain.
|
 |
Low labour requirement - several
travellers can easily be operated by one man and the labour consist mostly
on driving a tractor and moving the equipment form one hydrant to the
other one. Set up time is minimum, at the end of the irrigation cycle most
units automatically disengage the drive unit and some disconnect from the
water source, allowing unattended operation. |
 |
One machine can irrigate more than 10 ha/day,
applying 20-25 mm of water. One reel can operate up to 6.5 ha in a
single pull/run. |
 |
High distribution uniformity (at the
optimum operation level) - the continuous movement of the traveller
provides a high uniformity of water application.
|
 |
Adaptable to almost any shaped and sized
field and can operate around obstructions. |
 |
Portable - easy to transfer from field to field
or farm to farm.
|
 |
Application rate can be adjusted for
variability in soil moisture conditions in the field, even during one run.
|
 |
Easy to use, operate
and maintain.
|
 |
Can irrigate waste water and animal
manure. |
