Bananas need a lot of water to grow well. A plantlet requires at least 40 liters of water after planting. But as it grows, 20 litres of water must be added to the sucker until maturity.

Irrigation can increase banana weight by 30 percent. According to the location of the orchard and water conditions, select the drip irrigation, micro-sprinkler irrigation, rain gun irrigation and other irrigation system.
Drip irrigation, is the perfect delivery system that, provides the most efficient delivery of water and nutrients to the roots of your bananas, letting them grow to the best of their full potential. Drip irrigation, emitter spacing is 60 to 80 cm, emitter flow rate is 2 to 4 liters per hour.

Micro sprinkler irrigation generally one micro sprinkler for one plant, flow rate of 50 to 80 liters per hour is better. Micro sprinkler irrigation provide a cooling effect and raise the ambient humidity inside the canopy.
Micro spray hose is only applicable to the flat ground banana garden, generally one micro spray hose for two rows plants.

Rain gun irrigation only 45000 liters of water is enough for one acre irrigation up to the depth of 3 to 4 inch based on soil absorption. Every 3 days to 6 days once you must sprinkle the water 30000 to 45000 liters per hour based on local climatic conditions. Easy to cover one acre area within one hour.
