Question
Explain, how efficiency of irrigation can be increased.
✓
Answer
The efficiency of irrigation can be increased by:
-
Drip and sprinkler system: It increases the efficiency of irrigation as it sprays water through pipes and a sprinkler.
-
River lift system: It is useful in those areas where canal flow is insufficient or irregular due to inadequate water release. The water is directly drawn from the rivers for supplement irrigation.
