Description	Drip irrigation is being widely accepted in the world and becoming increasingly popular in areas with water scarcity and salt problems. In regions where good quality water is either insufficient or not available, saline water irrigation is inevitable; thus drip irrigation has gained immense value in some specific situations with not only good quality water but saline water, too. Drip irrigation is being used in many areas with surface water too, that is, water from streams/canals and rivers, which contain various sizes of sand particles and sand concentrations. Drip irrigation is based on a very slow and frequent application of water from relatively small nozzles or orifices, with discharge rate of 1 to 10 lph. In order to achieve such a small discharge, the passage and orifices must be very small. In most cases, the diameter of an emitter orifice is less than 1 mm.
