ABSTRACT:
A mechanized irrigation system and method of irrigation is disclosed and claimed. The system 10 comprises a main irrigation pipe 11 carrying a plurality of sprinklers 15 for applying liquid to a land 13 in relatively smaller regions along the pipe 11. A wheeled support structure supports the pipe 11 in a position spaced above land 13. Secondary sprayer carrying pipe 18 is rotatably mounted on and communicates with the main pipe 11. The main pipe 11 is anchored at 14 and is connectable to a hydrant. The arrangement is such that the secondary pipe 18, in use, distributes at least some of the liquid to be applied to the land 13 at a rate higher than the infiltration rate of the land over a larger region thereby to limit run-off of the liquid.
