Compare drip and micro-sprinkler for your crop and move forward with a defined project. Perin evaluates wet region, flow, pressure and operation to specify a system compatible with the cultivation, water source and property conditions.

## Drip and microsprinkler suit different designs.

In drip, emitters apply water at points or bands along lines. In microsprinkler, the emitter distributes water over a region close to the plant. The comparison must consider the layout of the crop and the region that needs to receive water, instead of choosing only based on the nominal flow of a component.

Perin presents these alternatives for fruit growing and other crops. On the pages by crop, you will find planning points for avocado, lime, banana and coffee. They help prepare the conversation; they do not establish the same solution for all crops of that type.

## Emitters, lines and sectors are project decisions.

Enter spacing, plant age and plot design. Soil, terrain and available water help define the layout of the lines, division of sectors and operating conditions. Changes in cultivation or expansion of the area must be included in this assessment before reusing an installation.

Ask for the proposal to explain the chosen method, the position of the emitters, the division of sectors and filtering. Saying that a piece of equipment is pressure-compensating does not eliminate sizing: selection and operating range must respect the manufacturer's data. Also inform which existing structures you intend to take advantage of.

## Filtration is part of the system.

Emitters may lose flow due to obstructions. The water must be evaluated to define the necessary protection; A filter alone does not resolve all physical, chemical or biological causes of clogging. Inspection, cleaning and monitoring of operation are part of the routine.

Record the origin of the water and the changes noticed throughout the year. Inform if there are already filters, reservoir, pumping or fertigation. This data makes it clearer to evaluate a new implementation or the suitability of a system in use.

## Discover an application published by Perin.

Fazenda Santa Clara, in Timburi/SP, appears in the portfolio with 12 hectares of avocado. Perin's technical publication describes pressure-compensating micro-sprinkler, disc filtration with automatic backwashing, fertigation, pump house and reservoir. The case page brings together the available data and video.

This record shows a solution applied to a specific property. To discuss your area, introduce the crop, municipality and water source. Design, supply, installation and automation must have the scope defined in the proposal, without assuming that all items in another case will be necessary.

## FAQ

**Is localized irrigation the same thing as drip?**

Drip is one of the forms of localized irrigation. Microsprinkler is also part of this group when it distributes water in defined regions close to plants.

**Does localized irrigation guarantee water savings?**

The result depends on design, maintenance and management. The choice of technology, in itself, does not guarantee a reduction in consumption or a percentage of savings.
