This video is for smallholders using gravity feed drip irrigation on a small plot of land or garden. The most commonly used scheduling method is programmed scheduling but this method wastes a lot of water because it does not respond to the prevailing weather conditions. By upgrading from programmed irrigation scheduling to measured irrigation scheduling, water consumption may be reduced by 50% or more without affecting the yield. The cost of upgrading to measured irrigation is just the cost of a bucket (or evaporator) and a steel pipe.
