Fundamentals of Hydraulic Pumping of Drip Irrigation Technology

This article presents the results of field studies on the study of the process of sediment settling in the settling tanks of the drip irrigation system, carried out on farms in the Bukhara, Kagan, Peshku and Ramitan districts of the Bukhara region, which are supplied with water from the Amudarya River. Calculation of the process of settling sediments in sedimentation tanks was carried out according to the method of A.G.Khachatryan and a graph of the relationship between the length of the sedimentation tank and the degree of sediment clarification was determined. As the length of the settling tank increases, the settling rate of the mud increases, i.e., the settling rate of the 41 m long settling tank is 30-40%, while that of the 300 m length is 55-65%. As a result, recommendations have been developed to substantiate the optimal parameters of sedimentation tanks for various natural conditions.
