Zusammenfassung:A center pivot irrigation system adapted for more uniform application of water. The system includes a pivot sprinkler arm with a first set of spaced apart nozzles. The system includes a first set of control valves each provided on the pivot sprinkler arm upstream of a nozzle. The irrigation system includes a corner sprinkler arm pivotally coupled to an end of the pivot sprinkler arm. The corner sprinkler arm includes a second set of spaced apart nozzles and a second set of control valves each provided upstream of a nozzle. The irrigation system includes a controller transmitting control signals to the first and second sets of control valves to open and close in a pattern defined by a valve pulsing pattern for the pivot sprinkler arm and a valve pulsing pattern for the corner sprinkler arm, whereby input water is applied in a uniform manner under the corner sprinkler arm.
