Development of drip irrigation system for sustainable agriculture / Muhammad Tajudin Mohmad Musa
Irrigation can be defined as replenishment of soil water storage in plant root zone through methods other than natural precipitation. Irrigation is seen to have found its roots in the history of mankind since earliest beginning. It helps reduces the uncertainties, particularly the climatic uncertain...

The data is being recorded each week using the soil moisture meter in the time period of 5 weeks. The data will be collected in the morning (before) and the evening (after) drip irrigation. Based on the result, the drip irrigation system definitely saves more water and help to increase and retain soil moisture of plants thus gave more sustainability for the plant which in area that have problem with water resources can used this method as a way to handle with the problems.
