You can save hose by using clips instead of rubber for hose-to-pipe connection. You will just need 5-7cm of hose to overlap with the pipe and 2 clips. No matter the pressure, it will hold.

I notice my new system drip isn't full when I start water pump, so I modify the system by dividing it, then close Both end with end cap.

Good day house, please how many acres can be comfortably irrigated with a single industrial borehole? How many acres can be irrigated with two industrial boreholes carefully placed on the farm.

if you put your reservoir and borehole in a strategic spot inside the farm, and divide the farm to like 5k stand each, I think you should be able to run 5-7 acres successfully at least.

It can be used for well. But the water must not be too deep or else it wont work. There is a maximum depth for the suction pipe. Beyond that the pump wont suck up water.
.
I just check my pump, the max suction head is 8 meters. So the well water must not be deeper than that.

I don't know or understand the motive behind irrigating cocoyam and plantain because dry season cannot kill both, if it is cocoa now I understand. If you must! Then rain gun will be more efficient and economical.
