| Outline of Research at the Start |
開発途上国の乾燥地において灌漑農業を実現するために，現地で調達可能な資材を用いて節水型，かつ，低コストで灌漑効果の高い地中灌漑方法を開発する．マイクロ灌漑方式で課題となる均一な水分分布を可能とするために，ヒモの毛管現象を利用したヒモ灌漑システムを提案し，効果検証を行う．ポンプを使わず地中のパイプ内の水位調節により，ヒモと土壌の負圧を利用した負圧差灌漑方式によりシステムを構成する．社会実装を念頭に，持続可能な農業のために，低コストで，資材の入手が容易で，現地住民が扱い易い方法を提案する．

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to realize irrigated agriculture in the arid areas of developing countries, we aimed to develop a water-saving, low-cost, and highly effective underground irrigation method using locally procured materials. We proposed a string irrigation system that utilizes the capillarity of strings and verified its effectiveness.
An experiment was conducted on the amount of water supplied and water retention of the string, and it was clarified that cotton and nylon are materials with high water supply capacity. These strings were buried in the soil, and the estimated supply amount and average supply amount from the dry state were clarified.
A soil moisture distribution simulation model was constructed to understand the soil moisture distribution for various patterns such as soil conditions and string installation conditions.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では，開発途上国の乾燥地において，現地で調達可能な資材を用い，安価な材料で均一な水分分布を実現するために革新的な地中灌漑方式を提案した．水位調節のみで重力水をできるだけ発生させず，作物に好適な水分量に保つ土壌水分管理を実現することができた．現地住民が扱い易い方法であるこのシステムは，乾燥地に適用し易く，新たな地域活性の創出とそれによる過放牧の抑制，不適切な水利用の改善に繋がると考えられる．
