Solution

The correct option is C sprinkler system
Sprinkler system is a type of irrigation mostly used on uneven land where sufficient water is not available. The perpendicular pipes, having rotating nozzles on top, are connected to the main pipeline at regular intervals. When water is allowed to flow through the main pipe under pressure with the help of a pump, it escapes from a rotating nozzle. It gets sprinkled on the crop as if it is raining.
