Abstract

The present study was conducted in 2016 to compare sprinkler irrigation (SI) and drip irrigation (DI) methods with regard to economic aspects. Fixed sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation were applied in dry bean farming. Full irrigation was practiced. Methods were compared with regard to production costs and gross –net incomes. Current findings revealed that there were not significant differences between sprinkler and drip irrigation in dry bean farming with regard to irrigation costs, total production costs and incomes.
