4a process by which precisely controlled amounts of water drip directly into plants from pipes.2 sets
5water is sent through plastic pipes-with holes in them-that are laid along rows of crops2 sets
6preserves precious water resources by letting precise amounts of water drip onto plants from pipes2 sets
7high-efficiency irrigation method in which water is delivered at low pressure through burried mains. type of micro-irrigation.2 sets
8a method of supplying irrigation water through tubes that drip water onto soil at the base of each plant1 set
9type of irrigation in which water is directly put into the ground instead of being sprayed over the plants to reduce evaporation.1 set
10preserves water by letting precise water onto plants1 set
11a process in which pipes placed near plant roots drip only as much water as the plants need1 set
12a system of crop irrigation involving the controlled delivery of water directly to individual plants through a network of tubes or pipes1 set
13using small pipes that drip water above ground to conserve crop water1 set
14involves delivering small amounts of water directly to individual plants. water is released through perforated tubing mounted above or below ground near the roots of individual plants. this method was originally developed in israel for use in arid regions having limited water available for irrigation. it is highly efficient, with little waste of water. some disadvantages of drip irrigation are the high costs of installation and maintenance of the system. therefore, it is only practical for use on high-value cash crops.1 set
15a process by which precisely controlled amounts of water drip directly onto plants from pipes, thus perserving precious water resources in dry areas1 set
16a process by which water drips in plants1 set
17releases water slowly to a specific area in the plants' roots1 set
18using computers that measure out how much water each plant receives1 set
19a method of supplying irrigation1 set
2090-95% efficiency, above or below ground pipes deliver water to individual plant roots1 set
21holes in pipe allow water to drip directly on the soil around the roots of each plant. very little water is wasted when crops are watered this way.1 set
22method which saves water and fertilizer by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either onto the soil surface or directly onto the root zone, through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters.1 set
23the process of a system of tubes with small holes that allow water to drip out onto the root zone of plants1 set
24above- or below-ground pipes or tubes deliver water to individual plant roots.1 set
25a process by which precisely controlled amounts of water drip directly onto plants from pipes, thus preserving precious water resources from dry areas.1 set
26a process by which precisely controlled amounts of water drip directly onto plants from pipes, thus preserving precious water resources in dry areas1 set
27a method of supplying irrigation water through tubes that literally drip water onto the soil at the base of each plant1 set
