The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks which irrigation system is preferred for uneven land. Uneven land can include hilly or mountainous areas where traditional irrigation methods may not be effective. 2. **Identifying Irrigation Systems**: There are several types of irrigation systems to consider: - Sprinkler Irrigation - Drip Irrigation - Chain Pump Irrigation - River Irrigation 3. **Analyzing Sprinkler Irrigation**: - Sprinkler irrigation uses high-pressure pumps to distribute water in a manner similar to rainfall. - This system can effectively cover uneven terrain by spraying water over a wide area, ensuring that all plants receive an adequate supply of water. 4. **Analyzing Drip Irrigation**: - Drip irrigation is highly efficient and delivers water directly to the roots of plants through a network of pipes and emitters. - While it is effective, it is generally more suited for even land where precise water delivery is needed. 5. **Analyzing Chain Pump Irrigation**: - Chain pump irrigation involves large wheels and a pulley system to lift water from wells. - This method is more complex and not specifically designed for uneven terrain. 6. **Analyzing River Irrigation**: - River irrigation involves pumping water from a river to irrigate nearby fields. - This method is typically used in flat areas near rivers and is not ideal for uneven land. 7. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the sprinkler irrigation system is the most suitable option for uneven land as it can effectively distribute water over varying elevations. **Final Answer**: The preferred system of irrigation for uneven land is the **Sprinkler Irrigation System**. ---
