These researchers used many calculations and graphs to show that in general, the inclusion of APLTVs as a built-in component of the low-cost drip irrigation system can potentially increase crop productivity and yield.application/vnd.ms-powerpointen-USIn CopyrightIrrigationUniversity of the Philippines Los BañosAdjustable Pressure-loss Lateral Takeoff Valves (APITVS)Takeoff valvesUniformityDrip irrigationAsabeWater distributionField ScaleImproving the water distribution uniformity of a low-cost drip irrigation system using adjustable pressure-loss lateral takeoff valvesPresentation
