Abstract

A tow line sprinkler system consists of one or more
sprinkler laterals made from 30 or 40 foot lengths of
sprinkler tubing rigidly connected together. The laterals
are towed from one set to the next with a tractor.
Excluding the cost of the tractor, which is used for
other farm functions, the tow line system is the most
economical mechanical move system available and is
convenient for pasture, hay and grain crops.
