Design a Drip Irrigation System for a fully matured orchard with the layout below.
Assume that the field is level, maximum time for irrigation is 8 hours per day, allowable pressure variation in the emitters is 20%, the maximum suction lift at the well is 20 m , the ET rate is 8mm? day and the matured orchard shades 70% of the area; trickle irrigation efficiency is 85%. Sections 1 and 2 are to be irrigated at the same time and alternated with sections 3 and 4. Each tree is to be supplied by 5 emitters. Required area for each tree is 36
K=0.000073 and x=0.63
