Download or read book Irrigation of Orchards written by Samuel Fortier and published by . This book was released on 1910 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Orchard irrigation in the arid and semiarid regions of this country varies in practice, according to water supply, climate, soil and situation of the land, and in cost of installation and maintenance of the system. The right selection of land for an orchard tract should be the irrigator's first step toward profitable fruit production. Expensive devices should not be used for distributing water in orchards of low value and small return, but valuable orchards, yielding large annual returns will justify the best-known devices for successful irrigation. Prevention of waste of water should be a chief object of the irrigation not alone for the sake of economy but for the good of the orchard as well. A discussion of the factors essential to the successful irrigation of orchards as well as of different methods used is presented in the following pages." -- p. [2]
