Abstract

Technical and economic efficiency of the drip irrigation for intensive orchards
has been justified by the example of Nor Artamet community in the Kotayk
region. The working principle of drip irrigation system, its performance indices,
as well as crops irrigation regime applied in the intensive orchards has been
investigated and collated with the same indices recorded in the traditional
orchards irrigated through surface irrigation method.
It has been proved that the vegetation period in the intensive orchards
cultivated through drip irrigation is distinguished by high economic indices and
profitability.
Thus, the latest irrigation technologies definitely ensure development of
intensive agriculture.
