Emission Uniformity

Emission uniformity  tells you how evenly water is being discharged by all emitters in a specific irrigation or micro-irrigation system. To calculate emission uniformity, take the average discharge of the 25% of emitters with the lowest discharge rate, and divide this by the average volume discharged across all emitters in the system. Higher emission uniformity equates to a more efficient irrigation system.
