Well-controlled flooding creates the ideal conditions for the development and good yield of rice, for example, while increasing the efficiency of applied inputs. Therefore, start by having the soil well leveled – cover wells and correct the slope of the land by means of a correct layout of taps – and the channels, conductors, drains and pumps in optimal conditions of use to be able to start the irrigation just at the moment when that the plant needs it and that the flooding is complete, is essential.
To ensure the efficiency of the system of channels and conductors, in addition to building them correctly, it is essential to keep them in good condition, free of sediments, weeds and leaks.
