The components of a drip irrigation system
A drip irrigation system comprises drip tape or tubing delivering water directly to plants, emitters regulating water flow, filters preventing clogging, pressure regulators maintaining consistent pressure, backflow preventers ensuring water safety, connectors joining components, mainline tubing distributing water, and end caps and flush valves for system maintenance. Together, these components efficiently deliver water to plants, conserve water, and minimize weed growth and disease risk.
