Abstract

This research shows the results obtained, during the conformation of design criteria, to ensure the built and management of irrigation systems in gardens efficiently. Aspects related to the determination of irrigation requirements, water use and supply sources; according to climate conditions, were included. Design tools are addressed to rationalize the system, guarantee water efficiency, facilitate its building according to available resources, specifying irrigation frameworks, spacing between sprinklers and laterals, as well as network schemes. Elements are detailed on sizing of sprinkler circuits, main distribution network, automatic control system and pumping station. These design criteria were applied in tourist centers in Cayo Santa María, Cayo Coco and Cayo Cruz, Cuba.
