irrigation, chiefly from underground sources
Irrigation water can come from various sources, including rivers, lakes, groundwater, and recycled wastewater. While some sources may contain elevated levels of salts or minerals, it is important to properly manage irrigation practices to prevent soil salinization and ensure the health of crops. Farmers may use measures such as drainage systems and soil amendments to mitigate salt accumulation in the soil.
Irrigation farmers benefited more from irrigation as it enabled them to cultivate crops consistently and support larger populations. Hunter-gatherers relied on natural resources and faced uncertainties in finding food sources.
Desalinization and Drip Irrigation.
A rainwater collection system for irrigation can be implemented by installing gutters on the roof to collect rainwater, directing the water into a storage tank, and using a pump or gravity to distribute the water to the irrigation system. This system can help conserve water and reduce reliance on traditional water sources for irrigation.
It depend on the climatic conditions of a place and sources of irrigation. Mainly it is sown in winter.
It allowed people to move away from natural water sources such as rivers and lakes. They were able to provide water for drinking and for crops in places where there were no natural water sources.
1) Improved rice cultivation 2) Elaborate irrigation systems and waterways
irrigation provides water to the soil that otherwise might not be available due to proximity of the soil to water. Irrigation is an artificial means of channeling water from sources farther away to an area closer to the soil so as to facilitate agriculture that otherwise might not flourish.
