Development and test of a gated pipe used for furrow irrigation

A new kind of gated pipe is presented. Detailled information on the description of the materials used, the associated costs, the construction procedures and its applications to field situation is given. The flow rate from each gate was found to vary from zero to 4 l/s, approximately, depending on the water head applied on each outlet. Some advantages of using this type of gated pipe to delivery water to a furrow irrigated area are discussed.
