What is the Microirrigation Forum

Microirrigation is the universal term for drip, trickle or microspray irrigation systems. It is a growing technology which has the potential to maximize crop productivity while conserving soil, water and fertilizer resources. This technology also continues to prove that it protects the environment.  The purpose of this forum is to provide an information arena which focuses on the technical and management aspects of microirrigation systems. The Microirrigation Forum also serves as the home page for Trickle-L, an Internet discussion list regarding this technology
