A system for agricultural irrigation water oxygenation for enriching soil oxygen level comprises a source of compressed oxygen (and not compressed air) coupled to a water line feeding an irrigation system, such as a drip irrigation system. The coupling system may include a pressure sensor for measuring the pressure in the water line, a solenoid safety valve, a control valve, a flow meter and a controller that controls the flow of oxygen from the source of compressed liquid oxygen to the water line using the components of the coupling system, without using a special cavitation valve and using off-the-shelf components while achieving the same benefits as a system incorporating the special cavitation valve.

A fluid dilution control system includes a processor and a plurality of sensors communicatively coupled to the processor. Each of the plurality of sensors is configured to sense a tracer component in a mixed solution of solution and motive fluid, where the tracer component is present in a pre-defined amount in the solution prior to being mixed with the motive fluid in the mixed solution. Each of the plurality of sensors senses a level of the tracer component present in the mixed solution and transmits the sensed information to the processor such that the processor compares the sensed level of each tracer component to a target level of a respective tracer component and causes a rate of dilution of one or more solutions containing the sensed tracer component to be adjusted to reach the target level of the respective tracer component.

In one configuration, a system for enriching a liquid with gas-bubbles is disclosed. The system may include at least one reservoir configured to temporarily store the gas-bubble enriched liquid.
