Irrigation System using Plastic Film Applied to Cultivated Furrows to Capture Rain Water or Water from Irrigation Systems that Simulate Rain and Method of Installation

Abstract

The present invention is related to an innovative irrigation system using plastic film applied to cultivated furrows to capture rain water or water sprayed by irrigation systems that simulate rain; characterized by a plastic film installed in the valleys between adjacent furrows where an amount of dirt is first moved from the sides of the adjacent furrows, forming a mound to support the film, which forms a dome or convex channel to capture rain water or sprinkler water and guide it to the upper mound of adjacent furrows, directly to the root system of cultivated plants; said film is installed manually or mechanically, and the side edges of said plastic film are buried or pressed into the sides of adjacent furrows, with these edges remaining buried, to be secured in the ground; said plastic film covers the entire valleys and part of the sides of the furrow, with the plants located on the mound of the furrow.
