A drip irrigation system (10, 100) includes a distribution pipe (12, 120) and drip irrigation pipes (14, 140) that branch off from communication with the distribution pipe. Each drip pipe has a flushing valve (20, 200) coupled to a downstream end and at least some of the drip pipes have each an inlet valve (16, 160) coupled to an upstream end for communication with the distribution pipe. The system further has at least one command valve (23, 25, 230, 250) in communication with the distributing pipe and with at least some of the inlet vales, wherein opening of the command valve is configured to close the at least some inlet valves.
