Summary

Purposes of studies are to perfect sprinkling technology by "Ku­ban" sprinkler as well as irrigation network components, to reduce irrigation water expenses for gift, to increase irrigated lands effi­ciency, to develop recommendations on sprinkling technology of agricultural and secondary crops, and give recommendations for new EPP design. Climate is continental. Relief is weakly undulated. Soils - middle and heavy loam. Ground water table is 1.1-1.5 m, salinity degree doesn't exceed 0.38-0.39 g/1). EPP area is 61.1 ha (net), land use efficiency 0.97. Water supply - over canal ЛКР, sprinkler feeding from canal lined with concrete plates. Agricultural crops - cotton, ambary hemp, alfalfa. Control - furrow irrigation. Comparative tests showed: crop yield increase on plot with sprinkling - 1.2 t/ha (27%); water saving - 40%; operational costs reduction

Key words
