Is sprinkler irrigation/ raingun method suitable to coconut, guava and lemon plantations since inceptions. Is it better than drip irrigation assuming that there is no water scarcity in the farm, it’s available sufficiently.
 

For horticulture crops rain guns are not suitable. For better irrigation purpose 2-4 rows drip laterals it will work effectively.

Unless you are doing intercrops in between the coconut, guava, lemon, drip irrigation is best. Otherwise, raingun/sprinkler would be advisable if there are inter crops.
