Abstract

FRISKA MARIA PANGGABEAN: Pattern analysis of Drip irrigation using cigarette filter and infussion tube as an emitter on inceptisol soil, supervised by EDI SUSANTO and AINUN ROHANAH. Irrigation efficiency on trickle irrigation system is higher than others, but it can only be applied by the rich farmers who have big finance, due to high investation for infrastructure, irrigation systems, and equipment. Effective and efficient water utilization are very important in plants cultivation in dry area to fulfill water requirement. Drip irrigation is considered as one of the alternative in fulfilling water requirement in correct time, volume and quality. The parameter used were water content, wetted area value, irrigation uniformity, and efficiency. The results showed that wetted area value was 0,075 m, irrigation uniformity was 92,54 %, and irrigation efficiency was 96,95%.
