Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of climatic factors viz., wind velocity, relative humidity and atmospheric temperature over the drift loss under sprinkler irrigation. The influence of climatic factors, Sixteen combinations of four sprinkler nozzle diameters and four pressures were studied for each irrigation with ragi as test crop. It was found that only wind velocity had consistant, positive and significant influence on the drift loss.
