Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a sub-surface irrigation system configured to operate in a plant-responsive mode, and further configured to make certain adaptations in response to plant stress. Stress adaptations may include, for example, selectively increasing source pressure of irrigation fluid, heating or chilling the irrigation fluid, and/or injecting fertilizer and/or non-fertilizer amendments into the irrigation fluid.

Abstract: Features of relatively low pressure microporous (and preferably plant-responsive) irrigation tubes are combined with features of relatively high pressure drip emitter tubes to produce a hybrid irrigation tube. Methods for using and manufacturing the hybrid irrigation tube are also disclosed.

Abstract: An electronic flying insect trap apparatus having a housing topped by an aperture with sufficient openings as to allow flying insects to pass through it and side apertures of the apparatus and a bottom plate, the housing and bottom plate having sufficient openings as to allow air to pass therethrough and disseminate a scent. At least one light positioned below the top aperture. A truncated conical collar below the light. At least one fan positioned below the collar. A tray containing sticky adhesive disposed on the upper surface of a disposable sheet positioned below the fan. At least one motion detector is in communication with the fan.

Abstract: The invention is directed generally to improvements in irrigation and fertilization assessment and delivery. More specifically, embodiments of the invention provide an improved fluid delivery tube, method to manufacture such tube, and systems that include such tube. The delivery tube is beneficial at least because it minimizes the life cycle cost of a responsive delivery tube.
