'''Pepsi drip irrigation''' - Drip irrigation reduces water consumption but conventional drip technology is "high-tech" and expensive. To make drip irrigation affordable for small farmers, the Chapin bucket or IDE bucket and drum kits were developed. A bucket kit costing US$ 5 can irrigate 25 m2 and a drum kit five times as much. Based on this principle, farmers make a drip system made of plastic hoses that is normally used to package ice-lollies. More about [[Irrigation - Pepsi drip | Pepsi drip irrigation]]
