	Irrigation System \| Aaron's Rain Barrels
		Irrigation from a rain barrel needs to be slow and metered so when you are away from your house for a few days your barrel(s) will not be empty before you return.
		Both the irrigation spigot and regular spigot are threaded to use ordinary garden hose.
		The difference between the irrigation system and our standard rain barrel is that this unit has two spigots (one being the irrigation spigot - both are threaded for garden/soaker hose).

	CIT - Irrigation System Selection
		Solid set systems are similar in concept to the hand-move lateral sprinkler system, except that enough laterals are placed in the field that it is not necessary to move pipe during the season.
		The pipe laterals for the solid set system are moved into the field at the beginning of the season (after planting and perhaps the first cultivation), and are not removed until the end of the irrigation season (prior to harvest).

	Selecting A Sprinkler Irrigation System
		The sprinkler system capacity is the flow rate needed to adequately irrigate an area and is expressed in gallons per minute per acre (gpm/acre).
		The linear move (sometimes called a lateral move) irrigation system is built the same way as a center pivot, with moving towers and spans of pipe connecting the towers.
		The traveling big gun system uses a large capacity nozzle (3/4 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter) and high pressure (90 to 125 psi) to throw water out over the crop (175 to 350 foot radius) as it is pulled through an alley in the field.

	Irrigation Systems
		The same system operated in the late evening when wind speed is low and humidity is high may only lose 15 percent of the water applied to evaporation.
		Irrigating at night and in the early morning will not cause increased disease problems unless the wetness period of the plant leaves is increased.
		These valves are buried in the irrigation area in a valve box, which is a plastic pail with a lid that permits access to the valve in the ground.

	P1508 Irrigation System Selection
		Furrow irrigation is one of the oldest controlled irrigation methods known and one of the few methods that has changed the least.
		The cable tow system is usually cheaper; it requires a wider alley to run in so the hose doesn't get kinked; the hose life may be shorter, and the cable pulls the system while the hose drags behind.
		Drip irrigation is a highly efficient system and is effective in watering tree crops, trellis crops, or high-value horticulture crops.

	Efficient Irrigation AG-508-6
		Sprinkler irrigation may be as simple as a single sprinkler attached to a garden hose, or it may be a complex system of underground pipes and pop-up spray heads.
		Drip irrigation is recommended for use on trees, shrubs, and flowers in the high- and moderate-water-use zones of the landscape to maximize efficiency.
		Several types of drip irrigation systems can be adapted to suit a variety of applications, from watering individual trees and shrubs to beds of annuals, herbaceous perennials, ground covers, or mixed borders.

	Landscape Network \| Landscape Design Ideas - Irrigation
		Irrigation design is fairly complex, requiring expert knowledge of pipe size and material, ways of boosting water pressure, routing and concealing irrigation plumbing and hardware, safety and water quality protection.
		The goal for a landscape irrigation plan is 100 percent survival rate of plants, using the minimum amount of water to do the job.
		Generally, micro irrigation is not suited for lawns and turf, but groundcover, shrubs, and even dwarf fruit trees are good candidates for drip or trickle irrigation.

	Irrigation System Controllers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		The state of the system (for example measured soil-moisture using a sensor as illustrated in Figure 2) is compared against a desired state and a decision based on this comparison is made whether irrigation should be applied or not.
		Systems of this type (with different levels of complexity), are quickly being developed, and some have become commercially available in the past few years.
		Irrigation timers are simple controllers consisting of clock units capable of activating one or more subunits of the irrigation system at specified times.

	Factors to Consider in Selecting a Farm Irrigation System
		In general, for a linear move system to be feasible, the ratio of length to width should be at least 2:1; that is, the irrigation system is no more than one-half as long as the lateral travel distance.
		Most systems are supplied with water from a ditch that extends the length of the field or from a large hose that the system drags along as it travels through the field.
		Pipelines on linear systems are generally 5 to 8 inches in diameter, depending on the system capacity and lateral length.

	An Introduction to Drip Irrigation
		Irrigation with drip can be more efficient because evaporation is reduced, runoff is reduced or eliminated, deep percolation is reduced, and irrigation uniformity is improved so it is no longer necessary to "over water" parts of a field to adequately irrigate the more difficult parts.
		Drip irrigation systems can be designed and managed so that the wheel rows are sufficiently dry so that tractor operations can occur at any time at the convenience of the producer.
		For example, with furrow irrigation systems, typically 4 acre-feet/acre or more of water is applied to onion fields in the Treasure Valley of eastern Oregon and southwestern Idaho.

	Evaluating Your Landscape Irrigation System; G93-1181-A
		Another factor to adjust in your irrigation system is water pressure.
		The final factor in efficient irrigation is one that is most often forgotten: your landscape may have changed since installation.
		Irrigate, i.e., run your system, for at least 15 minutes and then measure the depth of the water in each can.

	CIT - Selecting a Drip Irrigation System for Vineyards
		The purpose of this “Irrigation Note” is to provide a basis for thought when considering the purchase of a drip irrigation system for vineyards.
		While the neighbor’s system may be serving him or her well, it may or may not be the system for you.
		If two systems were generally equal in cost, but one required a 40 horsepower motor and the other required a 50 horsepower motor, this could have significant cost implications on operational costs.

	irrigation system layout - Drip Irrigation
		Drip irrigation can be the most efficient type of irrigation, but it is not suitable for all types of landscaping, and must be designed and installed carefully.
		In order to allow periodic flushing of debris, the layout of a drip irrigation system must be linear like a snake, not branching like a tree.
		Individual emitters are often used for drip systems and may be required in some places such as hanging pots, but they are prone to plugging even with filters installed.
