Irrigation helps to overcome the problem of low rainfall and helps to increase productivity by maintaining soil-water balance. Surface water and ground water resources are used for irrigation purposes. Several irrigation methods used to supply water to the crop fields include wells, tanks, canals, rivers, sprinkler method and drip irrigation system. The nature of soil is also an important factor for determining the irrigation requirements.
