Unpowered Measured Irrigation Training Manual for Smallholders
Published on by Bernie Omodei, Owner at Measured Irrigation in Technology
Measured irrigation is a new method of irrigation scheduling that responds to the prevailing weather conditions. This means that you use much less water without affecting the yield.
It is assumed that a smallholder is using drip irrigation (either pressurised or gravity feed) on a garden or a small plot of land. Using the Unpowered Measured Irrigation Controller (UMIC), you can upgrade your drip irrigation system so that all your plants are irrigated automatically. Provided you have a continuous water supply to UMIC, you can leave your garden unattended for weeks.
This will allow you to become involved in other activities away from the garden; for example, travelling to the market to sell your produce.
