Hose reel irrigation machines irrigate with linear motion and sprinkler method. In this study, an integrated fertigation system was developed for a 110 mm × 400 m hose reel irrigation machine manufactured by SEZERMAC. In the developed system, together with an hose reel irrigation machine, a volumetric dosing pump with a microprocessor, a fertilizer tank manufactured in special dimensions, a pair of symmetrical consoles for the fertilizer tank and solar system components were used. In order to determine the working performance of the developed system, pH, EC, TDS values were measured in irrigation water mixed with liquid chemical fertilizer. At the same time, necessary analyzes were made to determine the total nitrogen and total phosphorus values. The Christiansen uniformity coefficient (CUC) was calculated to determine the working performance of the system developed using the values obtained as a result of measurement and analysis. CUC values calculated for pH, EC and TDS parameters were determined to be between 95.0% and 99.9%. The CUC values calculated for the total nitrogen and total phosphorus amounts were found to be between 83.79% and 96.42%. The developed fertigation system could be used successfully with hose reel irrigation machines.
