• Irrigated agriculture occupied around 18% (275 million hectares) of the total cultivated area on the planet (1.5 billion hectares), consuming about 70% of the total quality water used, which is higher than the amount consumed by the sector. (21%) and domestic consumption (9%) (SANTOS, 1998).
• the irrigated area is approximately 16 million hectares, distributed mainly in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Peru.
• the world's irrigated area contributes 42% of total production.
• the irrigated area corresponds to 18% of the cultivated area, but contributes to 42% of the total production (CHRISTOFIDIS, 2002).
• Irrigated agriculture in order to remain environmentally sustainable, needs to be efficient in using water for irrigation, as well as in the use of agrochemicals that are applied to plants or soil can cause contamination of groundwater resources.
• the efficient use of irrigation water can be achieved by acting on: a) the existing irrigation structure in terms of crop types, irrigation systems and water use management; b) irrigation management methods and c) techniques that allow increased efficiency of water use.

• the main production zones are in the semi-arid and tray areas, where the municipalities of Irecê, Ribeira do Pombal and Barreiras are highlighted as trading centers.
• Rice (consisting of seven species, Oryza barthii, Oryza glaberrima, Oryza latifolia, Oryza longistaminata, Oryza punctata, Oryza rufipogon and Oryza sativa) is a plant in the grass family that feeds more than half of the world's human population. It is the third largest cereal crop in the world, only surpassed by corn and wheat. And rich in carbohydrates.
• rice In order to be successfully cultivated, rice needs plenty of water to maintain room temperature within appropriate ranges and, in traditional systems, labor intensive. It grows well even on very sloping land and it is customary in the Southeast Asian countries to find terraces where it is grown. In In either case, water keeps moving, although it circulates at a very slow speed.
• irrigation Of the technologies used for food production the most known and important is irrigation.
• the objective of irrigation is to supply water to the plants in the necessary quantity and at the appropriate time, to obtain adequate production levels and better product quality.
• An adequate irrigation system should be able to provide the producer with the possibility of making use of the water resource with maximum efficiency, increasing crop productivity, reducing production costs and thus maximizing the return on investments.
• Irrigation in agriculture is an important factor in crop yield. By controlling irrigation, more optimized growing conditions can be created and maintained, thereby increasing crop yield on a given amount of land. Irrigation is achieved at a price, requiring irrigation equipment and water to supply irrigation equipment. In some parts of the world available water is scarce, so it is advantageous to use available water resources in the most conservative and cost-effective way possible.
• Irrigation of soils that do not directly support plant growth is a waste of water.
• Other forms of loss include evaporation, which varies depending on climate, temperature and relative humidity. In arid regions, these losses are substantial, leading to increased irrigation costs.
• Drip irrigation is a relatively new technology that can save water, energy and increase profits. So drip irrigation can help solve three of the most important problems in irrigated bean and rice crops - water scarcity, increased pumping (energy) costs and falling farm profits.
• Drip irrigation is defined as a frequent, slow and accurate application of water through line or point emitters on the below surface of the at a small operating pressure (20 to 200 kPa) and at a low discharge rate (0.6 to 20 LPH), resulting in partial wetting of the soil surface.
• surface drip irrigation The application of water to the soil surface as drops or small flow through emitters placed at a predetermined distance along the side of the drip is called surface drip irrigation (Fig. 14). It can be of two types - online or integral surface drip system. The full drip line is recommended for sugar cane.
• Underground Drip (SDI): The application of water below the surface through emitters mounted on the inner wall of the (1.0 - 3.0 LPH) discharge ratio drip line generally has the same range as full surface drip irrigation. This water application method is different and should not be confused with the method where the root area is irrigated by water table control, referred to herein as sub-irrigation.
• the integral drip line (thin or thick wall) is installed at a predetermined depth in the soil depending on soil type and crop needs. There are two main types of SDI - "mono cultivation” and "multicultural".
• Effective drip technology requires more intensive application of crop, soil, climate, engineering, and economic factors than flood irrigation typically does. New management perspectives and skills are required for planting configuration, land preparation, drip design characteristics, irrigation scheduling, fertigation, operation & system maintenance.
• the filtration system is the assembly of independently controlled physical components used to remove suspended solids from irrigation water. Irrigation water filtration is vital for drip irrigation schemes to prevent blocking of emitters as the internal passages of the emitters are very small.
• Filtration system design recommendations should include location, size, specification of available suspended material sizes, filter types, and maintenance requirements.
• a primary filter should be placed after the pump and fertigation unit to remove fine and large particles from the stream.
• Secondary filters can be used from the primary filter to remove any particles that may pass through the primary filter during normal or cleaning operations. When secondary filters are used, the size of the openings is usually larger than the primary filter to minimize the attention required.
• the filter flow openings should be small enough to prevent unwanted particles from entering the system.
• the size of the filter should be based on the diameter of the emitter opening or the type and size of contaminants to be filtered.
• the filter capacity must be large enough to allow a nominal flow without frequent cleaning. Filters that are manually cleaned should require more than a daily maintenance. Sizes should be the most economical with the lowest friction losses ranging from 0.3 to 0.5 bars.
• Types Filtering should be done using different types of filters; screen (for inorganic impurities and water of moderate quality or following primary filtration with sand and disc filters) disc (for removal of impurities of organic and inorganic origin, algae included), hydrocyclones (for separation of sand or silt from water well or river filters) and sand or medium filters (for open wells, open reservoirs, streams, etc.).

• drip irrigation systems In most drip irrigation systems it is driven from the easel assembly to a secondary line to which the drip lines are connected. Although there are several types of dripperlines that are used, they are all designed to distribute water evenly over the entire design area of a given field block. A variation in the discharge rate of the dripperline emitters that is acceptable is on the order of 8 - 10%.
• Dripper lines vary in sender design, quality, discharge uniformity, and cost. From the outside, most lines of integral drippers look alike. Even so, there are differences between products, particularly emitters. Consistency and superior performance of an integral dripper line depend on the quality of its emitter. Several years of experience have shown that the following factors must be considered when selecting the line of drippers that should be on the surface or buried throughout a complete crop life cycle. Dripper lines come in a wide range of wall thickness. Construction and thickness of the dripperline should be sufficient to reduce the risk of the pipe being bent or caught by traffic in the field such as mechanical loaders, farm machinery, etc.
• Nominal diameters are 16 mm and 22 mm. A larger diameter will allow water to be supplied to a larger length of dripperline before pressure drops below design requirements. This results in cost savings of secondary lines.
• the mobile or self-propelled sprinkler irrigation system is powered by hydraulic energy, consisting of a hydraulic cannon (cannon sprinkler), mounted under a platform, which moves on the ground simultaneously irrigating. It requires a propulsion engine, a cannon-type sprinkler, a high-pressure hose (up to 500m), a wire rope or a coiled spool (depending on the type of movement) and a platform for installation.
