Abstract
Various methods and types of control equipment for automating
border and basin irrigation are described. Mechanical gates include
dual function turnout gates that both open and close and a trapezoidal
center-of-pressure check gate for a lined ditch. Cablegation systems
are used to irrigate either borders or basins with or without cutback.
Field tests and systems using feedback are described.
