SUBSURFACE DRIP
IRRIGATION SYSTEM.
Subsurface drip Irrigation Systems (SDI) are a suitable agronomic option for all type of crops: fruit trees (almond, vineyard, olive, pistachio, peach tree, etc.) and field crops (corn, vetch, barley, alfalfa, etc.).
The SDI is an irrigation technique that allows the localized application of both water and nutrients under the soil surface. This practice allows an even more efficiently usage of the water, energy and fertilizers, becoming the best alternative from an economic, agronomic and ecologic point of view.
