Abstract

The paper illustrates results of a triennial research project, carried out from 2009 to 2011 in North Italy, to compare drip and hose reel sprinkler irrigation of annual crops under the same agronomical and climatic conditions. Analysis of 22 case study (11 comparisons) shows similar crop yield response under drip and hose reel irrigation, while irrigation efficiency of drip is lower than sprinkler in most cases. According to project outcomes, selection and management of irrigation system is of paramount importance for sustainable irrigation.
