Depending on the crop grown, a subsurface drip system is the most water efficient irrigation system as it delivers water directly to the root zone and experiences virtually no wastage from evaporation or run off. The most efficient subsurface system is Subsurface Textile Irrigation which uses up to 60% less water than surface irrigation and 30% less than conventional subsurface drip irrigation. Subsurface Textile Irrigation has a long life span, requires less maintenance, is simple to retrofit and is the safest way to use recycled water as it disperses the water undergound and there is no tunneling of water to the surface. STI is used throughout the world to irrigate crops, sports fields, public parks and gardens and even residential back yards and green roofs.
