Overview

How we make plantation irrigation tubing

The outlets are formed into the tube from the inside at set distances, with round outlets and no seam along the tube. Laid along the crop rows and connected to a pump, it waters the whole row at once, with low water use and low energy cost.

It is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to irrigate a farm: quick to install and maintain, and light to move between fields. It needs more pressure than slot tape, so it is not suited to gravity-fed systems.

Where it is used

Can irrigation tubing work with a gravity tank?

Micro-pore tubing needs more pressure than slot tape, so it works best with a pump rather than a gravity-fed tank.

Why choose polytube irrigation?

It is quick to install, cheap to run and uses little water and energy, which makes it one of the most economical ways to irrigate.
