Untitled

It is a common misconception that drip irrigation was invented in Israel. There is no question that much of the product innovation in this field occurred in Israel and that Israel companies have contributed significantly to the industry, but they can't take all the credit for its development.

No credit is taken. The facts are that drip irrigation system, with plastic pipes and the new plasic drippers, was invented and first used and developed in Israel by Blass. It does not change the contributions made earlier and later.--Ybact 13:33, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We should expand the information about the development of drip irrigation. Please add any other information that you may have about its history. H2O 19:42, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is a book in Hebrew by Simcha Blass named "WATER IN STRIFE AND ACTION" describing drip irrigation (Blass was the the most known water engineer in Israel in its first years ,and in Jewish Yishuv, cheif engineer planning the Israeli main water carrier etc.) He emphasizes the role of his son in the invention.--Ybact 12:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a site that proves Simcha and Yeshayahu Blass (Simcha's son) hold the patent for microirrigation. http://www.microirrigationforum.com/new/archives/patent-first.htm --Gilabrand 11:24, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Garden drip irrigation

I suggest include information about universal quick connector for hoses and faucets and the more used types of hoses 0.15'' (4 mm), 1/2'' (12.5 mm), 5/8'' (16 mm) and 3/4'' (19-20 mm) for surface and higher sizes for subsurface . --Nopetro (talk) 13:20, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

History

Is the phrasing of the following in the History section correct: "using velocity to slow water"? Something seems a bit wrong or incomplete to me, but I don't know enough about drip irrigation technology to fix it. FurnaldHall (talk) 11:59, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DRIP SYSTEM IS THE NEED OF THE HOUR —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.197.163.250 (talk) 04:22, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to add in some facts about the introduction of drip irrigation in California on what percentage of irrigated crops used the drip system and how that number has increased over the years.Chnugent (talk) 19:30, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Micro irrigation

The term Micro irrigation is a category of irrigation system. Drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, mist irrigation etc. are come under this category. Basin irrigation ,Channel irrigation etc. are come under the category of Macro irrigation system. Therefore, term micro irrigation is not exactly another name for drip irrigation--சஞ்சீவி சிவகுமார் (talk) 10:52, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

drip irrigation on United States farms

this important article needs expansion. One area that should be expanded, from my provincial point of view, is the status and future development of it on farmland in the USA, particularly in the West and Midwest.--Rich Peterson76.218.104.120 (talk) 02:02, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I liked the list of pros and cons and don't think it would be improved by combining the points into a neutral or balanced section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JPLeonard (talk • contribs) 20:58, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
