Sprinkler options for tree nuts.
Nelson Irrigation offers numerous options for tree nuts, including the R5, R10, R10T and R2000 Rotator sprinklers. NOTE: Nelson Flow Control Nozzles can allow longer tube runs while keeping the flow the same at every sprinkler.
For one-sprinkler-per-tree solutions, consider the new 7 Series (the J7 Jet, S7 Spinner & R7 Rotator). The 7 Series micro-sprinkler line can transform from one sprinkler type to another. Each sprinkler type uses the same adapters, stake & tube assemblies, body, and nozzles. Therefore, each shares in the benefits of low pressure, flow control, quick-clean technology, and easy-change nozzles. Additionally, the same accessories, such as stream splitters and PVC stake & tube assemblies, can be used with each sprinkler type.
Irrigating almonds and tree nuts is a complicated task that depends on everything from your region to your choice of valve. Explore some of the Nelson products commonly used for almonds and tree nuts below, or get in touch with the territory manager in your area so we can help find the right solution for you.
