What are the advantages of the clockwise sprinkler compared with the traditional sprinkler?

Clockwise sprinkler is a kind of sprinkler irrigation, which can be driven either electrically or hydraulically. It is widely used in areas with a wide area of cultivated land. It is a kind of multi-functional self-propelled sprinkler. What are the advantages of needle sprinkler compared with traditional sprinkler at that time?

1. Save water consumption

Because the water loss of sprinkler irrigation system is very small, the irrigation intensity and quantity can be well controlled, the irrigation is uniform and the utilization rate of water is high. The irrigation uniformity of sprinkler irrigation can generally reach 80% to 85%, the effective utilization rate of water is more than 80%, and the water consumption is 30% to 50% less than that of surface irrigation.

2. Save labor

Due to the high degree of mechanization of sprinkler irrigation system, there is no need for manual ridging and canal repair, which can greatly reduce the labor intensity of irrigation and save a lot of labor. The efficiency can be 20-30 times higher than that of surface irrigation.

3. Increase crop yield

As irrigation water is transported and distributed to the field through a variety of sprinkler irrigation equipment, it works in a controlled state, so it can be accurately supplied according to the water supply conditions and the law of crop water demand. In addition, sprinkler irrigation can also adjust the field microclimate, use sprinkler irrigation to increase air humidity and reduce air temperature in the dry and hot wind season, which can achieve good results; sprinkler irrigation can be used to prevent frost in early spring. Practice shows that sprinkler irrigation can increase the yield by 15% to 25% compared with surface irrigation.

4. Have strong adaptability

One of the outstanding advantages of sprinkler irrigation is that it can be used for various types of soil and crops, which is limited by topographical conditions. For example, sprinkler irrigation can be used on sandy land or where the slope of the terrain reaches 5% and surface irrigation is difficult. In areas with high groundwater level, surface irrigation makes the soil too wet, which is easy to cause soil salinization. Sprinkler irrigation can be used to adjust the water status of the upper soil to avoid salinization. Because sprinkler irrigation has low requirements for topography, it can save a lot of engineering quantity of farmland surface leveling.

5. Improve the utilization rate of cultivated land.

The use of sprinkler irrigation can greatly reduce the land occupation of internal ditches and ridges in the field, increase the actual sown area, and increase the utilization rate of cultivated land by 7% to 15%.
