Irrigation can reduce water stress and the incidence of disease
Blueberries work best when irrigated with water and fertilizer such as drip irrigation, which is deposited directly into the root zone - where the plant needs it. Irrigation systems deliver water and nutrients to plants at a constant rate, with no waste or runoff. The high efficiency of the irrigation system reduces the input cost. To ensure that the whole land yield is higher and the product quality is stable.
Irrigation systems reduce management costs and water and fertilizer use
Drip irrigation systems require conventional irrigation to reduce costs by up to 50%. Agricultural growers can schedule irrigation cycles to better match the water and fertilizer requirements of each growing season, thus reducing the amount of water and fertilizer used.
Irrigation systems provide relief from frost
Irrigation Irrigates blueberries while protecting against frost in some cases. When blueberries begin to grow in spring, the new buds are vulnerable to frost damage, and the irrigation system increases the temperature and humidity of the air to prevent frost.
