According to the strategy of gardening development of the Russian Federation it is necessary to increase the areas under fruit and berry plantings to 504,8 thousand hectares till 2020. It will lead respectively to increase of production volume to 4,13 million t. So, the use of natural resource and economic capacity of the Republic of Crimea is one of the priority directions of achievement of this purpose. Lying of intensive long-term gardens needs to be performed in accordance to scientifically substantiated zoning of fruit crops placement, and with implementation of systems of drip irrigation. The paper shows technological schemes of a drop irrigation of fruit crops with different types of local moistening. It presents also the necessary set of the equipment and the cost of creation of drip irrigation system for fruit crops over the areas of 10, 20 and 50 hectares. The set of the drop equipment consists of head node (pumping point, filtering station, fertilizing node, feeding pipe) and an irrigating network. The irrigating network consists of the bulk, local, distribution and irrigation pipelines. Cost of drip irrigation includes the cost of the equipment set and building and installation work. The main objective of this research was to determinate the cost of 1 hectare of a drip irrigation system for fruit crops with various schemes of landing. The high cost of drip irrigation systems is compensated by high productivity of fruit crops and a fast economic return.
