Abstract

Pulse irrigation refers to the practice of irrigating intermittent fashion with fixed time off and on until the entire irrigation water is applied. Under pulse irrigation system amount of irrigation water and operation time play a key role in reducing excess flooding, study of soil moisture distribution pattern under pulse irrigation (drip), influencing irrigation levels through pulse irrigation (drip), response of pulse irrigation (drip) for vegetable crops. Based on the literature revived application of irrigation water through pulse irrigation (drip) increased the yield of crips head lettuce, green gram and potato crop on sandy soil by 5.78 %, 19.89 % and 40 %, respectively. The soil moisture distribution pattern close to the field capacity after adoption of 10 pulses per day in case of bell paper study. The reviews pointed that pulse irrigation (drip) system can be useful in terms of water saving, maintaining soil moisture close to the field capacity, increasing soil moisture horizontally in the root zone than vertically, increasing yield.
