Rainfine offers two types of lateral move irrigation systems that differ in water feeding system. One chooses ditch feed system and another one hose feed system. These two easy-to-use, economical, and reliable hose-fed or ditch-fed irrigation machines can replace your wheel-line or flood irrigation system for better results year after year.

Ditch Fed Systems

With lateral move irrigation systems that use ditch feeds as a water source, there are two ways to build the ditch-with cement bricks or geomembranes. In a lateral move center, water is piped from the ditch to the sprinkler. Pump and diesel engines are installed on the center pivot's cart.

Hose Fed Systems

A lateral move system using a hose feed works in a linear movement to irrigate a rectangular area.

Water is fed to the irrigation system by a flexible hose attached to the machine. The size of the hose is 6’ and 8’. The length can stretch from 1 span to 7 spans.
