Diseño y construcción de elementos para optimizar un sistema de riego por aspersión en la Quinta “La Delicia” (San Juan, cantón Riobamba).

Abstract

The present work of Titling dealt with the design and implementation of elements for a Technified lrrigation System, for which the different requirements and characteristics of the Fifth "La Delicia" were analyzed in order to meet the objectives established, several factors were determined through an lnsitu visit, where the lack of water resources established requirements for the implementation of elements (water collector, dewatering, reservoir tank and sprinklers) was determined, which served as a basis for the calculation of the agronomic and hydraulic design of the water system irrigation. Therefore, training and awareness sessions were held among the inhabitants of the area where the project was developed, using didactic tools, accessories and materials used in the implementation of irrigation system, so that the population was able to witness its application and operation , a thorough investigation in the agronomic, hydraulic field was sown, thus sowing knowledge that can be applied together to obtain an innovative and efficient irrigation system. With the help of the Cropwat 8.0 software, the calculation of the water needs of the crops was developed, based on weather data and environmental conditions of the parish, it is the previous step to the hydraulic calculation of the irrigation, where practical formulas were managed that allowed obtaining the minimum possible losses during the circulation of water through the hydraulic circuit. In conclusion, the different elements that integrate the spray system were built under the design parameters with a net dose of 27.72 mm, considering a frequency between irrigation of 4 days, using a sprinkler, it is recommended to provide, maintenance Preventive newspaper to the entire irrigation system through the cleaning of filters in the reservoir, filters in sprinklers due to the presence of impurities through training.
