The effects of trickle and other conventional irrigation methods on the yields of tomato, strawberry, citrus and banana, and water-use efficiency have been evaluated in this study. Experiments were conducted at various locations of different soil properties in ukurova. According to the results from experiments, it was defined that the highest from drip irrigation in old orange (25 years old) and lemon, however, there was no increase in yield from irrigation methods used in experiment. In commercial application, yield increased 27 per cent and the discarded yield decreased 5 per cent with drip irrigation as compared to other methods. Using the drip irrigation, 50 per cent of irrigation water was saved in banana; however, there was no increase in the yield from irrigation methods.
