Abstract
The performances of drip irrigation systems used by farmers engaged in tomato cultivation were measured in the study. For this purpose, the technical performance of some drip irrigation systems in the villages of Ankara province Ayaş district in the Central Anatolia Region was measured. To measure the performance of drip irrigation systems, 4 lateral drip points on each manifold and 4 dripper points on each lateral were selected. In the study, the Application Efficiency (Ea) 29,5-63,6%, Uniformity Coefficient (CU) 81,4-94,3%, Distribution Uniformity (DU) 62.8-91.4%, Emission Uniformity (EU) 58,4-87,7%, Actual Application Efficiency of Lower Quarter (AELQ) 33,4%- 61,2% and Potential Application Efficiency of Lower Quarter (PELQ) 52,5-78,9% was determined. According to the findings obtained in the research, it was determined that there were design problems in the system in all tested areas.
