DESIGN OF DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM IN STRAWBERRY PLANT (FRAGARIA SP): CASE STUDY IN PANDANREJO VILLAGE, BUMIAJI SUB-DISTRICT, BATU CITY

摘要

The engineering and technological innovation of drip irrigation systems is a very important development for farmers. Increasing the quality and quantity to achieve export products in agriculture, especially in horticultural products can be achieved through this innovation. Through this innovation, it is expected to increase regional income, and bring many multiplier effects, for example improving quality, the stability of market prices to the welfare of farmers. Application of drip irrigation systems are in Pandanrejo Village, Bumiaji Sub-Distric, Batu City. Based on this research, that was tested five influence consists of average of the emitter output, head losses, coefficient uniformity, variation in debit emitter, flow variations in the emitter. Drip irrigation system is suitable for plants such as strawberry plants. The results in this research are an average emitter output of L2 is 1.768 lt/hr and the lowest value is L3 with average emitter output 1.704 lt/hr, average head losses of L3 more higher than L2 and L1, the highest value of coefficient uniformity produced by L2, The value of average coefficient variation L3 0.250 and the lowest average is L2 with the value of average coefficient variation 0.180, P3 has higher more than P2 and P1. Increased pressure make flow variation value increased.
