MULTI-SUPPORT SPRINKLING MACHINE FOR PRECISION IRRIGATION Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A01G25/09 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: multi-support sprinkling machine for precision irrigation comprises a transit pipeline, self-propelled supporting carts, additional pipelines and sprinkling devices. The additional pipelines are equipped with electromagnetic flow regulators. The additional pipelines are connected with radiometric soil humidity sensors, automatic soil samplers, control units and mechanisms for varying the sprinkling height. The humidity sensors and the soil samplers are equipped with GPS/GLONASS receivers. The control units are made with the possibility to supply fertilizers and pesticides to the additional pipeline. The mechanisms for changing the sprinkling height are connected with a portable weather station.

EFFECT: possibility of changing the irrigation norm along the pipeline length, depending on soil humidity in a particular area.
