Abstract: Pressure-irrigation systems and, in particular, micro-irrigation provide an effective methodology for increasing irrigation efficiency. However, emitter clogging is a major problem in micro-irrigation systems, especially under irrigation with treated wastewater (TWW). Currently, farmers treat their… read more here.
