ABSTRACT

In this study, a Drip Irrigation System design was proposed at the

agricultural areas of Sitio Migbanday, Claveria, Misamis Oriental. In the system,

crops were propagated by small drops of water coming from the emitters that were

installed along the small pipes that were called as laterals. Required water

consumption of the crops were calculated, considering the type of soil and climate,

followed by the analysis of pipe design for the main, sub-main lines and laterals.

Analysis of flow were calculated by the use of EPANET 2.0 Software, with the

hydraulic model created for the design.

With minimum Crop Water Requirement of 0.69 L/day, which is needed for

the early stages of plant growth, and maximum Crop Water Requirement of 1.48

L/day, which is needed for the latter stage of the plant growth, the minimum and

maximum demand of water were determined which had the values of 39.342 L/day

and 84.387 L/day, respectively. Average Discharge of the source found out to be

1.16 L/day, which is the volume of water to be used to propagate plants per day.

With the design of 100.22 cu. m capacity Reinforced Concrete water

storage, 100-mm diameter HDPE pipe for main lines, 100-mm diameter HDPE

pipe for sub-main lines,75-mm diameter manifold pipe, 20-mm diameter pipe for

the laterals, and 0.5L/hr PCJ Point-Source Emitter, the Drip Irrigation system was

at its most efficient when the crops were propagated at a time period of

approximately 3 hours with a demand rate of 0.000139 L/sec.

The Equipment, Materials for the construction and labour cost Php

4,604,255.67 and from the Cost Benefit Analysis of the Project, Cash Returns was

achieved after 5 years, and was proved to be cost-effective, with a Cost-Benefit

Ratio of 1.798095428.
