The correct option is B Drip irrigation
A.Furrow
irrigation - is conducted by creating
small parallel channels along the field length in the direction of predominant
slope. Water is applied to the top end of each furrow and flows down the field under the influence of gravity.
B.Drip irrigation
- is the most efficient water and nutrient delivery system for growing
crops. It delivers water and nutrients directly to the plant's roots zone, in
the right amounts, at the right time, so each plant gets exactly what it needs,
when it needs it, to grow optimally.
C.Basin
irrigation - irrigation of land by surrounding it with embankments to form a basin and flooding
it with water.
D.Sprinkler
irrigation - is the method of applying water to a controlled manner in that is
similar to rainfall. The water is distributed through a network that may
consist of pumps, valves, pipes, and sprinklers.Irrigation
sprinklers can be used for residential,
industrial, and agricultural usage.
So, the correct
option is ‘Drip irrigation’.
