Irrigation Practices
Irrigation practices involve supplying water to crops or plants to support their growth, especially when natural rainfall is insufficient. Techniques include surface methods like flooding or furrow irrigation, and localized methods such as drip or sprinkler systems, which aim to deliver water efficiently, minimize waste, and reduce soil erosion. Proper irrigation ensures plants receive adequate moisture, promotes healthy development, and can improve crop yields while conserving water resources. Effective management considers factors like soil type, crop needs, and weather conditions to optimize water use and sustainability.
