Irrigation technology involves methods to supply water to crops efficiently and effectively. Traditional systems use manually-operated channels or sprinkler systems, while modern techniques include drip irrigation, which delivers water directly to plant roots through tubes, minimizing waste. Automated systems utilize sensors and timers to optimize watering schedules based on moisture levels and weather forecasts. These advancements help conserve water, reduce costs, and improve crop yields by ensuring plants receive the right amount of water at the right time without over or under-watering.
