Description:
A Lateral Move irrigation system is a large, self-propelled machine that moves in a straight line across a rectangular field, irrigating crops with a gentle, rain-like application. Unlike a center pivot, which rotates around a fixed point creating a circular pattern, a lateral move travels linearly, making it ideal for rectangular fields.
For a 10-hectare (approx. 24.7-acre) field, this system is a highly efficient and uniform method of irrigation.

Applications:
1.A vast and flat plain area
Application rationale: The translational sprinkler irrigation machine necessitates a high degree of terrain flatness, making it most suitable for operation in open plains.
Typical regions: Large agricultural operations in the Great Plains of North America, the Eastern European Plain, Northeast China’s Plain, and the North China Plain.
2.Arid and semi-arid regions
Application rationale: These areas face significant water resource scarcity and have exceptionally high demands for irrigation efficiency. The translational sprinkler irrigation machine can achieve uniformity levels ranging from 85% to 95%, thereby significantly minimizing water waste and deep seepage.
Typical regions: The Midwestern United States, Israel, Australia’s outback, and northwestern China (including large-scale farms in Xinjiang and Gansu).
3.Regions with stringent water resource management
Application rationale: In areas where governmental regulations impose strict quotas on water usage or where water prices are elevated, farmers must strive for maximum water use efficiency. The horizontal sprinkler irrigation machine serves as an ideal solution to meet this objective.

Advantages:
1.High Uniformity: Provides one of the most uniform water distributions of any irrigation method.
2.No Corner Issues: Unlike a center pivot, it irrigates 100% of a rectangular field.
Versatility: Can be used for a wide variety of crops, including small grains, corn, alfalfa, and even vegetables.
3.Efficiency: Low-pressure sprinklers and drop hoses minimize water loss from evaporation and wind.
4.Fertigation/Chemigation: Ideal for applying fertilizers or chemicals through the irrigation
FAQ:
1.What are the main advantages of the Lateral Move Irrigation machine compared with the center pivot irrigation machine ?
--No blind spot irrigation: The greatest advantage. It can irrigate the entire rectangular area without the problem of missed spraying in the corners, and the land utilization rate can reach 100%.
2.What after-sales services are provided?
--We offer a 2-year warranty and lifetime maintenance from the date of delivery. Free installation guidance
