Apparatus for controlling water flow from an irrigation ditch

Abstract

An apparatus for controlling water flow from an irrigation ditch can include a first conduit connecting portion adapted to be coupled with a first conduit, the first conduit having an opening for receiving water from the irrigation ditch, a second conduit connecting portion adapted to be coupled with a second conduit, the first and second conduit connecting portions being adapted to be arranged for allowing passage of the received water from the first conduit to the second conduit. In a first operating configuration, the first conduit connecting portion is positioned for elevating the opening of the first conduit at an elevated position to prevent water from being received into the opening. In a second operating configuration, the first conduit connecting portion is positioned for lowering the opening of the first conduit to allow water to be received into the opening.
