Because of the irrigation method; Provides early harvest opportunity Due to the way of irrigation; there is no water loss. It is the irrigation system with the highest efficiency.

The drippers in the Drip Irrigation Pipes can become clogged due to algae, sand, silt, clay, heavy metals that may be found in the water, algae residues, bacterial mud etc. For this reason, filters should be used in systems where drip irrigation pipes are used.
The pressure is taken as 1 bar in the determination of the flow size of the drip irrigation pipes, in the project design and in the description of the pipes (TS ISO 9261). Carbonate accumulations in the pipe are cleaned by injecting 0.5 – 1.0% HCl solution into the pipes.
