Linear move irrigation system
Agricultural irrigation equipment designed for rectangular fields that moves linearly across the area, drawing water from an open ditch or a flexible hose.

Linear move systems are utilized on fields with regular geometry to ensure maximum coverage compared to center pivot machines. They are deployed for consistent irrigation of cereal, industrial, and vegetable crops during periods of insufficient rainfall.
Successful operation requires proper field leveling and the removal of obstructions along the travel path. Common mistakes include improper pressure management, leading to uneven water distribution, and failure to adhere to maintenance schedules for hydraulic components.
