The Drip Tape Medium Row Crop Kit from DripWorks makes it easy to irrigate up to 20 100-foot rows or 1/8 acre efficiently and economically. This row cover kit includes 2,000 feet of drip irrigation tape, 100 feet of mainline tubing and a filter and PSI regulator.
You also get all the hardware you need for connections as well as hold-down stakes and more. An optional timer is available for fully automatic operation.

The Medium Kit includes 2,000' of 15 mil low flow, 8" spaced drip tape which is enough to water up to twenty 100' rows. 2,000' of low flow drip tape uses approximately 400 gallons per hour (GPH). This kit must be divided into two watering zones using the included hose Y (HYVHPL) due to the limited capacity of the 1/2" mainline tubing (240 GPH). Do not exceed a maximum of 1,200' of low flow drip tape in either watering zone.
Use the included hose Y to manually switch between watering zones or automate this kit by adding a hose thread, battery-operated timer (not included) at the faucet, and replacing the hose Y with the Galcon Alternator valve (not included). If installing a timer, we recommend using a high-pressure hose extension to relieve the weight of the timer assembly from the faucet.
Important Notes:
The pressure regulator in this kit requires a minimum of 0.5 GPM (30 GPH) to begin regulating the water pressure to the 10 PSI needed for the drip tape. We recommend using at least 150' of drip tape in your system to meet this minimum flow rate. Using less than 150' of drip tape at a time may cause leaking at fittings and possibly damage the drip tape.
Time-Saving
Farmers can save time and labor costs as they can automate the watering process with a timer, allowing them to focus on other important farm tasks.
Customizable
The kit may be customizable to fit specific row crop spacing and field configurations, with the ability to add or remove drip tape, emitters, and fittings as needed.
Precise Water Delivery
DripWorks Row Crop Drip Irrigation Kit provides precise water delivery to crops, as it delivers water directly to the root zone, reducing water waste due to evaporation, runoff, or overspray.
