What is water-saving irrigation equipment? What is the current situation in our country?

Water-saving irrigation equipment refers to the general designation of mechanical equipment with water-saving function for irrigation. Its types mainly include sprinkler irrigation, micro-irrigation, and all-plastic water-saving irrigation systems (including: hose three-way valve, low-pressure outlet valve, semi-fixed sprinkler irrigation and mobile type). As the lifeline of the country's economy and a large water user, agriculture has been using the traditional and backward flood irrigation method for a long time due to reasons such as ideology, capital, and technology, which greatly wastes human and material resources. The gradual promotion of water-saving irrigation equipment in the vast rural areas of China has become a mainstream of agriculture in modern society. However, the strength of domestic related equipment manufacturers is uneven, and the majority of farmers must pay great attention when choosing suitable agricultural tools.

Water-saving irrigation is a basic modern engineering technology. Whether it is engineering water-saving, agricultural water-saving, or management water-saving, it must be based on the realization of industrial production of water-saving irrigation materials and equipment. It can be said that this is a large-scale And one of the preconditions that must be solved for water-saving irrigation. Through more than 20 years of hard work, my country has established a certain foundation in water-saving irrigation technology research and engineering practice. In contrast, the development of supporting industries and related industries is slow, and it is difficult to adapt to the needs of large-scale popularization of water-saving irrigation. The current situation Not optimistic.

The equipment used in different forms of water-saving irrigation projects has certain commonalities, but more of them are characteristics, so the equipment is often developed and matched around various water-saving irrigation technologies to form their own systems. At present, there is a demand for engineering material equipment, pipeline water transportation engineering material equipment, etc. in the market. Sprinkler irrigation equipment: The sprinkler irrigation equipment produced in my country mainly includes large, medium, small, and light sprinkler irrigation machines, water pumps for sprinkler irrigation, buried pipelines for sprinkler irrigation and ground mobile pipelines, sprinklers, and auxiliary equipment. The area of ​​sprinkler irrigation projects in my country has reached 19 million mu, of which about 75% use light and small sprinkler irrigation machines, the area of ​​sprinkler irrigation by large and medium-sized sprinkler irrigation machines accounts for about 10%, and the semi-fixed pipeline sprinkler irrigation accounts for about 15%. Micro-irrigation equipment: The micro-irrigation equipment produced in my country mainly includes the first key equipment such as filters and fertilizer applicators, pipes and connectors, drip irrigation pipes (belts), micro-sprinklers, and infiltration irrigation pipes.
