Technological solutions are environmentally friendly safe watering with wide-ranging sprinkler machines

Abstract

Erosion processes in the Russian Federation remain one of the main sources of loss of soil and crop fertility resources, deterioration of land conditions. The implementation of an environmentally safe irrigation process with wide-coverage sprinklers is an urgent problem and requires improvement of technology, technological techniques for soils with low water permeability. The aim of the study was to optimize the operating mode and technological methods of irrigation with wide-reach sprinklers, adaptation to conditions changing during the irrigation period, exclusion of over-watering and water erosion of soils. The article discusses the schemes of differentiated distribution of irrigation norms and the movement of wide-reach sprinkler machines of circular and frontal action, ensuring compliance of the irrigation norm with the level of moisture reserves of field areas at the time of their watering, reducing the environmental burden on the soil and preserving fertility.
