Abstract: The invention relates to a "Subsurface Water Discharge Unit for Dryland Horticulture," designed to improve water use efficiency in dryland orchards by delivering water directly to the root zone of trees. The system consists of a circular water container, water insert port with cap, subsurface dischargers, and a securing mechanism. When installed around the tree base, the container is filled with water, which is slowly discharged through the dischargers, minimizing evaporation and runoff. The dischargers are equipped with filters to prevent clogging, ensuring a consistent water flow. This system provides a targeted, low-maintenance irrigation solution, reducing water wastage and enhancing tree growth in water-scarce regions.
