An automated drip system was installed in six year old guava orchards in vertisols. Controller of automated system consisted of 32 output port digital, and 14 analog input, with provision for independent and sequence programming of valves and programming for backwash sand filter and fertilizer inject°. Irrigation and fertilizers were provided to guava based on crop water requirement and scheduling; 50% of recommended dose of fertilizer was provided as fertigation with irrigation based on sensor and ET, and 100% fertilizer as conventional. The water application performance of automated drip system was evaluated based on head-discharge relationship of emitters; standard deviation of emitter flow; discharge variation and coefficient of variation of emitter flow; uniformity coefficient; statistical uniformity, and distribution uniformity of emitters. It was found that automated drip system could perform excellent with uniformity coefficient, distribution uniformity and statistical uniformity varied from 96-98%; coefficient of variation of emitter discharge from 0.022-0.032; and emitter flow variation, 7.1-11.6%.
