Irrigation:- a system of supplying (land) with water by means of artificial canals‚ ditches‚ etc‚ esp to promote the growth of food crops ⇒ a sophisticated irrigation system Importance of irrigation:- Irrigation means the artificial way of watering the crops. Irrigation is very important for Pakistan.We have little rainfall therefore we get the help of irrigation in preparing our crops. The progress of our country depends upon the means of irrigation and their progress. All parts except northern

Messopotamian Irrigation Systems By isa Have you ever wondered what the world would be like without irrigation systems? Without the ancient Mesopotamians we may not have had irrigation systems today. Mesopotamia was among the first civilizations to build a irrigation system. Mesopotamians had a very sophisticated irrigation system. They started by digging out a wide trench for the water to flow through. The next step was to build smaller ditches to their crops. Then they built walls to control

Irrigation and it’s Methods Irrigation may be defined as the science of artificial application of water to the land or soil. It is the replacement of rainfall with water from another source in order to grow crops. Several methods of irrigation are used today depending on the water availability and the type of crop to be irrigated. Some of these methods are: 1) Flood irrigation: In flood irrigation‚ a large amount of water is brought to the field and flows on the ground among the crops

METHODS OF IRRIGATION The manner in which water is applied to the land is commonly referred to as method of irrigation. These methods are adopted to apply irrigation water to the crop depending on the landscape‚ amount of water and equipment available‚ the crop and method of cultivation of crop. The main aim of these methods is to store water in the effective root zone uniformly and in maximum quantity ensuring minimum water loss and to get optimum yield. Various methods of irrigation are: 1. Surface
