There have been a number of proposals to improve the centre pivot irrigation system. Most of them sought to decrease their energy requirements by lowering system pressure. Recently, however, there has been an interest in improving irrigation efficiency. In arid regions such as Saudi Arabia in which center pivot system experience greater amounts of evaporation than other climates, improving irrigation efficiency is extremely important. The two most recent suggested modifications employ low pressure drop pipes and dragging perforated pipes along rows to decrease the instantaneous applications rates: however, these and all previous low pressure or drop systems are proposed only for row crops. The travelling trickler system that is specifically designed for grain crops shows promise of being more efficient than any centre pivot modifications yet proposed. The prototype system consists of a number of micro tubes (emitters) spaced twice the grain row distance that are hydraulically designed to apply a uniform amount of water directly to the soil. The travelling trickler system applied almost 40% less water than a standard center pivot, operating at one-fourth of the pressure.
