Inexpensive lawn irrigation occurs when any person walks over the the grass moistened by the dew, the water droplets flow from the leaves to the ground, wetting the roots. To enhance life quality, we propose a model to the inexpensive lawn irrigation.
To execute inexpensive lawn irrigation just roll a pipe over the grass moistened by the dew before the sun evaporates it.
The above animation shows a dozen of grass seedlings moistened by the dew, represented by the darker points on the leaves. AS soon as the pipe rolls on the seven seedlings on the right side, the water flows to the ground, wetting the roots. This is represented by the brown line on the light brown soil. On the other hand, the five untreated grass seedlings loose the water droplets due to evaporation by the sun rays, with no profit. This model can be helpful in umid rainless regions and/or in regions with low economic resources.
