ABSTRACT

Usually professional assessment is required before investing in a drip irrigation system. A consulting firm, with engineers and agronomists, can make a viability study based on the information relevant to the case. This information is valuable for a large scale as well as a small scale business. Some basic considerations for the viability study are:

1.Water and land resources. 2.Conditions of the agricultural business. 3.Pattern to follow with the new irrigation system.
