The first experimental system of this type was established in 1959. In the early 1960s, Blass developed and patented this method and the new dripper was the first practical surface drip irrigation emitter. During the years 1960 to 1965 Blass developed the drip-irrigation systems and sold them inside Israel and abroad.
Drip irrigation or trickle irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface.
The invention of drip irrigation by Simcha Blass has led to a large expansion of agriculture in arid regions, and in many places drip irrigation is the de facto irrigation technique utilized. Studies have consistently shown large water use reduction with drip irrigation or fertigation , with one study returning an 80% decrease in water use and ...
In 2006, Plastro Irrigation (founded in 1966), Roberts Irrigation (founded in 1969), T-Systems (founded in 1977) were acquired by John Deere to form its micro and drip irrigation business, John Deere Water. [5] In 2014, FIMI Opportunity Funds acquired John Deere Water, and changed the name to Rivulis Irrigation.
Micro-irrigation, sometimes called localized irrigation, low volume irrigation, or trickle irrigation is a system where water is distributed under low pressure through a piped network, in a pre-determined pattern, and applied as a small discharge to each plant or adjacent to it. Traditional drip irrigation use individual emitters, subsurface ...

An irrigation controller is a device to operate automatic irrigation systems such as lawn sprinklers and drip irrigation systems. Most controllers have a means of setting the frequency of irrigation, the start time, and the duration of watering.
