SAMTAL 600

 

Importance of Land leveling

·        Uniform Depths and discharge variations over the field

·        Uniform water distributions in the root zone

·        Efficient surface irrigation

·        Improves the efficiency of water, labour and energy resources utilization

 The benefits over other land leveling methods include the following:

·        Laser land-leveling in itself can improve irrigation efficiency by reducing high spots in a field that back up water, or filling low spots that contribute to excess irrigation. Saves labor over conventional grade staking

·        Reduces work due to bad grade stakes and miscommunication

·        Increases job productivity

·        Frees up the supervisor

·        More level and smooth soil surface

·        Reduction in time and water required to irrigate the field

·        More uniform distribution of water in the field

·        More uniform moisture environment for crops

·        More uniform germination and growth of crops

·        Reduction in seeds, fertilizer, chemicals and fuel used .

·        Improved field trafficability (for subsequent operations)

Limitations include:

·         Need for skilled operator to set/adjust laser settings and operate the tractor

·         More efficient for regularly sized and shaped field

·         High cost of the equipment/laser instrument
