A sim­ple irri­ga­tion solu­tion for your Caterpillar Tunnel.

Have you ever felt intim­i­dat­ed by the chal­lenge of design­ing your own irri­ga­tion sys­tem? Or, been frus­trat­ed with work­ing around unruly lines of drip tape on your beds? We’ve been there too. The basic needs of your plants shouldn’t be complicated.

Join the more than two mil­lion farm­ers world­wide who are irri­gat­ing with Netafim irri­ga­tion sys­tems and expe­ri­ence the dif­fer­ence it can make on your farm. No more frus­tra­tion. No more guesswork.

Uniformity

Highly uniform watering.

We’ve designed the over­head irri­ga­tion sys­tem to work per­fect­ly with all of our Farmers Friend cater­pil­lar tun­nels. By using 3‑foot spac­ing between sprin­klers you will expe­ri­ence excep­tion­al uni­for­mi­ty — no more dry or over­sat­u­rat­ed spots in your beds!

Drip-less Sprinklers

No drip­ping. No damage.

By using Netafim SpinNet sprin­kler heads with check valves, your new irri­ga­tion sys­tem will fea­ture drip-less oper­a­tion, ensur­ing the plants direct­ly below the sprin­kler heads won’t be dam­aged by over­wa­ter­ing. Every plant matters!

Efficiency

Out of your way.

If you’re a farmer, you know the chal­lenge of drip irri­ga­tion: long lines of drip tape get­ting in the way of your cul­ti­vat­ing, seed­ing, trans­plant­i­ng and har­vest­ing. Get your irri­ga­tion up and out of the way and start sav­ing hours of unnec­es­sary has­sle every season.

Quality Components

Built to last.

We have sourced top-notch parts to deliv­er the qual­i­ty and val­ue you have come to expect. All sprin­klers are made from the high­est qual­i­ty plas­tics with excel­lent UV resis­tance. These plas­tics will not crack, ensur­ing a longer life with few­er main­te­nance issues.

Complete kit.

Everything you need.

Irrigation sys­tems are com­pli­cat­ed to design and can be a headache to source all the parts you need. We’ve done the hard work for you! After test­ing count­less fit­tings and mul­ti­ple lay­outs, the eas­i­est and most effec­tive solu­tion is now avail­able. Everything you need is includ­ed — except water of course.

What crops work well with over­head irrigation?

Generally crops with leafy greens like Lettuce, Arugula, Cabbage, Kale, Collards, Radishes, and the like, are most ben­e­fit­ed by over­head irri­ga­tion. (Drip irri­ga­tion still has its place on crops like Tomatoes, Peppers and Cucumbers. Also, leafy greens may ben­e­fit from drip in the win­ter — when mois­ture and humid­i­ty are extra high.) In the sum­mer months, use our over­head irri­ga­tion sys­tem with shade cloth for evap­o­ra­tive cool­ing on leafy greens.

Installation

Irrigation installation made easy.

With our full-col­or, step-by-step instruc­tion man­u­al, plus our instal­la­tion video, this may be the eas­i­est irri­ga­tion sys­tem you’ve ever installed.

Repeat Order

5 out of 5 stars

Bruce D.9 months agoVerified buyer

Second time with the overhead irrigation - it was easy to install and got it up quickly. The tool to punch the holes and then insert the drop line was great especially with installing the drops into the mainline. When I get another tunnel I will most likely get overhead irrigation set again.

Turnkey overhead irrigation. Great product!!

Tanner F.about 1 year agoVerified buyer

I’m a huge fan of irrigation kits. This one was easy to put together and gave us a turnkey option for irrigation. Quick and easy to put together. Thanks Farmer’s Friend!!

Missing Sprinkler Heads

1 out of 5 stars

Mike R.about 1 year agoVerified buyer

My kit had no sprinkler heads... But it had double the amount of the sprinkler assemblies. I Called the company. No one answered. I left a voicemail with my order number and call back number, and I clearly explained the situation. That was about a week ago and no one has gotten back to me...

Farmers Friendreplied:

Hi Mike, we sincerely apologize for the trouble you had getting ahold of us. Through this experience we discovered a loophole in our voicemail system that has since been resolved and will prevent this from happening again in the future! Let us know if you have any issues with the new sprinkler heads we've sent your way!

Exactly what we needed !!

Jennifer R.over 1 year agoVerified buyer

We found the irrigation system incredibly easy to install and worked just as we had hoped. The sprinklers have great coverage and is very even.

We will put this up again and again !!
