Sumisansui Irrigation (aka ‘Sumi Soaker’ in New Zealand) is a very useful tool that I have begun to integrate into my ranching operation. Goats don’t really need irrigation to survive like plants do, however, easy irrigation solutions like the Sumisansui R-Wide from Wetterfrosch Farm Tools are a really great tool for livestock producers as well. I like to use the Sumisansui for germinating forage crops, watering compost piles, and sometimes to keep livestock cool during the heat of summer.
The Sumisansui R-Wide irrigation tube creates a fine mist of small sized droplets that are super gentle on the soil and plants. The spray pattern is a very uniform rectangle coverage area of up to 32 feet wide and 330 feet long with one tube. The Sumi Soaker MAX is super easy to deploy with the included Winder and Bobbin system. The included Tube Stopper allows the user to very simply set the coverage length to match their field lengths. The Sumisansui R-Wide operates at 14 PSI up to 30 PSI MAX and from .085 GPM per foot up to .128 GPM per foot.
