Master of Science in Agricultural Engineering, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2008. Adviser: Engr.Cesar C. Carriaga. A gravity-type drip irrigation system was designed and evaluated at the Central Experimental Station of Cavite State University in Indang, Cavite with cucumber as test crop. The irrigation system was designed to deliver the peak daily crop water requirement of a cucumber plant. The discharge rate of the emitters is 1.8L/hour. The system was constructed from cheap and locally available materials. Results of the system evaluation revealed that the distribution efficiency at 1.8meters head is of 97.7% and with distribution uniformity of 98%. Such high values of distribution uniformity efficiency indicate a good design of a gravity-type drip irrigation system. Emitter clogging, which is a common problem in drip system was controlled so well by ensuring good fertilizer solubility and proper straining of the chicken manure. The drip system had an initial cost of P6, 711.50 for a total area of 84 square meters. The treatments used were: (i) drip irrigation Method + organic manure; (ii) drip irrigation Method + inorganic fertilizer; (iii) Manual irrigation system + organic manure; (iv) manual irrigation system + inorganic fertilizer and results showed that the treatments significantly affected the plant's performance in terms of leaf width, plant height, root length and the yield. Drip irrigation system with inorganic fertilizer produced the greatest leaf width, plant height, root length and the yield. | |
