| Abstract | Water scarcity forces saline water to be used in the Bohai Rim Region, China. However, emitter clogging is a persistent and widespread problem in drip irrigation systems when irrigating with saline water. To find a suitable lateral flushing regime for drip irrigation systems using saline groundwater, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of five different lateral flushing frequencies. The lateral flushing frequencies were at 1-, 5-, 10-, 30- and 50-day intervals using saline and fresh groundwater. The total duration of irrigation was 100 days, with a total application of 122 h for each water source. The drip irrigation system consisted of hydrocyclone separator, disc filters and screen filters with inline-labyrinth emitters and thin-wall laterals. The results of this experiment are trusted only at such conditions, and show that emitter discharge and uniformity decreased in all treatments. Flushing laterals every 5 days was adequate to control emitter clogging for drip irrigation systems applying the fresh groundwater, while the other three less flushing frequencies failed to prevent clogging. Emitters in the saline groundwater treatments clogged earlier and more severely than those in the fresh groundwater treatments. Five flushing frequencies under drip irrigation using saline groundwater failed to prevent clogging. Based on the findings above, to better control emitter clogging, freshwater is suggested to be used to flush laterals following irrigation with saline groundwater and longer flushing duration is recommended, which needs further study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
