Advantages and limitations <strong>of</strong> drip irrigation system<br />

As already discussed, drip systems have gained popularity as efficient, water-conserving irrigation systems. However, as you plan for your landscape and gardening<br />

needs, consider that there are both advantages and limitations <strong>of</strong> these systems.<br />

Advantages<br />

1. Conserve water by applying moisture only where it is needed, and by eliminating drift, potential run<strong>of</strong>f and most evaporation.<br />

2. Are relatively simple to design and install.<br />

3. Provide a more constant level <strong>of</strong> moisture to plant roots.<br />
