DIY Solar Drip Irrigation
Published on by Bernie Omodei, Owner at Measured Irrigation in Technology
This document is for smallholders using gravity feed drip irrigation on a small plot of land.
Before reading this document I recommend that you watch the YouTube video with the title “DIY solar drip irrigation”:

By reading these guidelines, a farmer is taking the first step towards automating their drip irrigation system so that he or she can leave their plot unattended for weeks.
At sunset each evening, water will be automatically pumped from the farm pond to the header tank, and all the plants will be automatically irrigated by measured irrigation.
This will allow the farmer to spend more time generating income from other activities away from the farm; for example, travelling to the market to sell their produce.
The total cost of automating the drip irrigation system will be less than $200.
