I NEED MORE POINTS ABOUT BAMBOO DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM

Answer 1

Bamboo Drip Irrigation System:- For more than 200 years, the farmers of North-Eastern part of India, in the state of Meghalaya, have been using an indigenous technique of bamboo drip irrigation to irrigate their plantation crops. These farmers of Khasi and Jayantia hill areas have developed this system of tapping springs and stream water to grow betal leaves, black pepper and arecanut.
The bamboo drip irrigation system is based on gravity and the steep slopes facilitate in implementing it. water from an uphill source is tapped and brought to the plantation by a main bamboo channel. Usually these water sources are far off from the plantations and the main bamboo channel runs hundreds of metres and in some cases even few kilometers. the water is then regulated through a complex bamboo network of secondary and tertiary channels to all the parts and corners of the plantation, right up to the bottom of the hill. These bamboo networks usually have 4-5 diversion stages before water is delivered at the base of the plant. 18-20 liters per minute of water from the main channel gets reduced to 10-80 drops per minute at the end of the network. After this long journey, the water tickles or
drips drop by drop at the base of the plant.
The cost involved in building the system is minimal. Bamboo is available freely in this region. Usually the farmer himself sets up the system in his plantation with the help of only 1-2 labourers.
