What is drip irrigation?

Drip irrigation is the irrigation system that delivers water and nutrients directly to the plant’s roots zone, in the right amounts, at the right time, so each plant gets exactly what it needs, when it needs it, to grow optimally. Drip irrigation is the most efficient water and nutrient delivery system for growing crops. With the help of drip irrigation farmers can produce higher yields while saving on water as well as fertilizers, energy and even crop protection products.
