Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 The drip irrigation technology has gained popularity in India. In the past, when locally manufactured emitters or drippers were not available, microtubes were exclusively used as emission devices. Microtubes represent the simplest and most cost-effective precursor to all modern types of emitters or drippers. These are small-bore, black polyethylene tubes and can be classified under long-flow-path emitters. Micro tubes still are used in drip irrigation due to its simplicity and low cost. Their primary advantage lies in their ability to operate at lower pressure compared to other emitters, making them a practical and economical choice for many farmers.
2 This standard prescribes the requirements and methods of tests for polyethylene micro tubes of inside diameter 0.9 mm to 1.2 mm for drip irrigation system.
