Introduction— Given the reduction in water resources, irrigation should be carried out with highest application efficiency. Irrigation pivots achieve efficiencies close to localized systems; however, for citrus irrigation, equations available its design and management do not contribute efficient rational use of water. Objective— Adapt expression capacity machine propose a new formulation discharge emitters, adequately describe operation central irrigation. Methodology— Logical research methods were used within these, historical method deductive logic, obtain adequacy presented. Results— The α coefficient was obtained adapt two calculate necessary discharges emitters. They applied case study. Conclusions— It confirmed that center pivot machines irrigate consumption efficiency comparable could systems.
