Because water is delivered carefully and directly to the ground, drip irrigation is renowned for its ability to irrigate plants effectively. Tubing is used in the garden & landscape irrigation system to transport water from a source to drip emitters. Water is practically dripped from emitters to plant root zones using drip irrigation tubing that is snaking through landscaping beds and groundcover regions. Drift occurs when wind propagates water from an irrigation canal to areas that don't require it and it is not a problem with drip irrigation. A garden & landscape irrigation system may give 1 to 4 gallons of water per hour to a landscaping bed.
