| Abstract | ||
| Several types of turf irrigation equipment are available to best meet the landscape requirements: from long range sprinklers that throw water for more than twenty meters to a small sprayer that splash water for 2-5 meters or less. So, selecting the right equipment is an important part of landscape irrigation. Uniformity of water distribution, water use rationalization and total costs are the major concerns for design and management of turf irrigation systems in Egypt. Therefore, the aim of this research was to evaluate the performance of Spray sprinklers PS and Rotator sprinklers MP on the distribution pattern uniformity of soil moisture content and water use efficiency of turf grass (Paspalum 10), under deficit irrigation management. | ||
