ADVANTAGES OF BUBBLER SYSTEM


Bubblers are visible and problems are noticeable.

Bubblers require minimal filtration.

Bubblers flow rate and wetted area are easy to adjust.

Bubblers are durable and require little maintenance.

Depth of water penetrations in the root zone is improved appreciably.

The system allows better weed control.

The soil between trees remains dry to allow easy cultural and harvesting operations.

Fertilizer can be mixed with irrigation water for directly reaching root zone to improve crop yields and quality.

Use of saline water becomes possible due to dilution effect through frequent application of water.

Energy requirements to operate the system are low at 15-25 psi.

Growth of bacteria, fungi, pests that thrive in moist environment is reduced due to drier conditions around the plant.

Uniformity of application is relatively high and the system can be laid for all topographic conditions.

The system requires minimal labor requirements to operate and maintain.
