DESIGN PROJECT

A farmer intended to develop 1 ha plantation near Padang Besar, Perlis. As consultant, you are assigns

to advice the farmer with the design project for irrigation and water resources management . The

crops are:

3. Greenhouse planted with tomato plant with drip tape-Mollisols

4. For field crop (maize) with sprinkler

5. For hybrid rice with surface irrigation-Vertisols

6. For hybrid rice with terraces irrigation-Oxisols

7. For okra plantation with furrow -Alfisols

8. Subsurface irrigation for Roselle - Histosols

9. Nursery irrigation for palm oil tree - Entisols

10. For tree crops plantation - Ultisols

Includes in your report:
