Solution

The correct option is C Drip
  • Drip irrigation provides water to plants drop by drop near the roots. There is no wastage of water. It is a boon in regions with water scarcity.
  • The other methods like canal system, sprinkler, and hand pump are all effective for irrigation, but they do not reduce water wastage.
