wet agriculture

Wet agriculture refers to farming practices that involve extensive use of water, either through irrigation or maintaining high soil moisture levels. It typically includes growing crops that require substantial water, such as rice or certain vegetables, in areas with abundant water resources. This method helps ensure consistent crop growth and yields, especially in regions with irregular rainfall. However, it can also lead to challenges like water scarcity, soil degradation, and environmental impacts if not managed sustainably. Proper water management and technology are essential to balance agricultural productivity with environmental health.
