Our research aims to show the uniformity of water distribution in sprinkler watering of an apple plantation. We used the sprinkling irrigation equipment in the 18 x 18 scheme under different climatic conditions for which we calculated the Christiansen uniformity coefficient and we determined the variation of the water amount supplied to the basic irrigation area. We calculated the actual irrigated area/basic plot area relation, which recorded a value of 2.51.Â
