At this time, in the coastal area of ​​Quynh Luu district (Nghe An), most of the land area is used for production by farmers to grow and care for green onions and some other green vegetables. In order for green onions and vegetables to grow well in this hot weather, from early morning, farmers must water regularly with a sprinkler system, creating white "water flower" gardens on the green vegetable carpet, very eye-catching.

Mr. Ho Dien An in Hamlet 7, Quynh Minh Commune said that due to the nature of the land here, which is sandy, it drains quickly, so in the hot summer, it is necessary to water regularly, plugging in the electricity every 2-3 hours, each time for 4-7 minutes. Water in the form of raindrops is sprayed evenly into the surrounding environment to help the soil have enough moisture and become more porous. Photo: Xuan Hoang

According to the locals, to have this sprinkler irrigation system, with 1 sao of land, an investment of about 12 million VND, including digging a well, buying a pump and a water pipe system. When watering, just plug the pump into the power outlet and the whole system will operate continuously, without having to work hard like before, holding a hose to water all day. Photo: Xuan Hoang

With just simple operations such as turning on the pump and opening the water valve, the entire vegetable garden is fully supplied with water. Therefore, women can also operate it easily. Ms. Nguyen Thi Loan said that her husband goes to work, while her wife goes to the field every day to plug in the electricity to water the vegetables. Photo: Xuan Hoang

The most obvious advantage of the sprinkler irrigation system is that it saves water for users. Water in the form of raindrops is sprayed evenly into the surrounding environment, saving 50-60% of water. Vegetable growers here also said that this system rarely breaks down, and one investment can be used continuously for many years. Photo: Xuan Hoang

Farmers are preparing the land for the new crop of onions. The sprinkler irrigation system is installed right in the middle of the rows so that the entire field can be watered evenly. Farmers calculate that after a 2-month crop of onions, they will spend about 100,000 VND on electricity. The coastal area of ​​Quynh Luu district currently has about 700 hectares of intensive vegetable cultivation land. According to the district's Department of Agriculture, to save water and reduce the difficulty of watering vegetables, farmers have invested in installing sprinkler irrigation systems for about 90% of the area.
