What is Sprinkler Irrigation?

Sprinklers irrigation dominates automatic irrigation applications worldwide. They range from small
pop up spray head sprinklers used in a typical lawn or garden to larger rotating sprinklers for commercial
or agricultural applications. Low volume automatic irrigation is also gaining popularity because it
can provide water efficiency of up to 98% for the appropriate applications. Low volume irrigation
uses bubblers, drip emitters and micro sprays to deliver precise amounts of water slowly and
evenly, at or near the plants roots, eliminating waste. These components in combination with
advanced controls that adjust watering schedules according to weather conditions and plant
needs make up some of the most efficient systems available today.
