Abstract

The mechanization of sprinkler irrigation systems for more efficient irrigation
with reduced labor began soon after the first systems were installed
near the beginning of this century. Milo B. Williams (2) documented this
statement when he wrote: "Engineers have devised systems of piping and special
spray equipment for irrigating all areas by spray methods and have introduced
automatic devices which reduce labor." This paper will discuss the mechanization
of sprinkler irrigation to date and give some possible future trends.
