Underground piping is used to pump water from a water source (like a lagoon, reservoir or river), and send it through large sprinklers that are positioned (and built) above the crops. Water is then sprayed through these large sprinklers, descending on the crops much like rain does.

How do irrigation systems work?

Irrigation is the artificial application of water to soil, and there are several types of irrigation systems which work in different ways. The most common method is surface irrigation (or flood irrigation), wherein water moves across land by gravity flow. Localized irrigation, on the other hand, distributes water under low pressure through a piped network, in a pre-determined pattern, and applied as a small discharge to each plant or adjacent to it. Drip irrigation, also known as trickle irrigation, functions as its name suggests. Drip irrigation (or trickle irrigation) delivers water at or near the root zone of plants, drop by drop. In sprinkler irrigation (or overhead irrigation), In sprinkler or overhead irrigation, water is piped to one or more central locations within the field and distributed by overhead high-pressure sprinklers or guns. There are several other types, but all have in common that they provide the appropriate amount of water to crops via an artificial system of distribution.
