- Abstract
This research was conducted to obtain a comparison of the efficiency of using a pump concerning the final results, namely in the form of pressure and discharge, so that it can be used for watering oil palm seedlings that are far from water areas and difficult terrain. Based on the results of research that has been carried out, the position of the series pump arrangement can increase water pressure, while the position of the parallel pump arrangement can increase water discharge. In the series pump arrangement, the pressure was 14.22 psi and the discharge was 0.0308 m3/s, while in the parallel pump arrangement the pressure was 9.08 psi and the discharge was 0.0354 m3/s. Installation of series pumps can increase pressure by 56% compared to parallel pump arrangement, while the discharge efficiency is 15% with parallel arrangement.
