The required form of the word is a noun form. In the sentence, the word follows the preposition 'for'. Prepositions connect the noun to another word or a sentence. Hence, 'for' connects a noun to the rest of the sentence.Option D: 'Irrigation' is an application that provides controlled water to plants at time intervals. It's a noun and is suitable to the sentence. Hence option D is correct.Options A, B and C: 'Irrigate' is a present tense verb. 'Irrigated' is a past tense verb. 'Irrigated' is a verb in the present continuous. These verbs refer to the tenses and not the activity. Hence these options are wrong.
