CONSTRUCTION OF SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEM IN DEMONSTRATION FARM WAZIRI UMARU FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC, BIRNIN KEBBI
Abstract
The need to irrigate farms by a method that will replace the natural rainfall when not available led to the design and construction of the sprinkler irrigation system. In this project, a sprinkler irrigation system was designed, constructed and installed. The design was based on using a rotating sprinkler system to irrigate a small size plot. The facility was designed for different crops like tomatoes, potatoes and onion. The result revealed that the discharge of the system is 0.0009m3/sec.
