Solution

The correct option is D
Drip irrigation

Drip irrigation is a type of irrigation in which plants are watered by using narrow tubings, which deliver the water to the plant slowly and directly to the base of the plant. This reduces the total amount of water required for agriculture and, hence helps in water conservation.
