Drip irrigation was first used by the Israelis to conquer the desert. Thin plastic tubing is run underground with tiny holes to let out the water right at the root of the plant. This makes maximum use of the little water that is available and can irrigate vast areas.
If drip irrigation is used non commercially, it uses fresh water out of the outside water faucet.
Drip irrigation is a type of irrigation used in the Murray River. Drip irrigation is a continuous tube with evenly spaced emitters that 'drip' water. Drip irrigation is used on the surface, often hung from trellis, or below the surface. Drip irrigation, especially subsurface, is a water efficient approach to irrigation and so is favoured along the Murray River as the area is in extreme drought. There is a new type of extremely water efficient irrigation that is starting to be used throughout the Murray river area, because it uses far less water than any other irrigation system. The KISSS Subsurface Textile Irrigation system is increasingly used in sports fields, crops and backyards due to it's water efficiency.
The concept of drip irrigation was first developed in Israel in the 1960s by Simcha Blass, an Israeli engineer. Israel has since become a world leader in the use and development of drip irrigation technology.
Drip irrigation is found on sidewalks and mainly in parks in Dubai . They are even used in the Miracle garden where there are many types of flowers.
A drip or a sprinkler or overhead irrigator is used
The process of supplying water to land by artificial means is called irrigation. Irrigation is commonly used in agriculture to provide water to crops in areas where rainfall is insufficient. Various methods of irrigation include surface irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, and drip irrigation.
Citric acid is commonly used to remove salt blockages from drip irrigation pipes. It is an effective and environmentally friendly choice for cleaning out the pipes without causing harm to the system or the surrounding environment.
Farmers commonly use several types of irrigation, with drip irrigation and sprinkler systems being among the most popular. Drip irrigation delivers water directly to the plant roots through a network of tubing, minimizing water waste and increasing efficiency. Sprinkler systems, on the other hand, distribute water over the crops in a manner similar to rainfall. Both methods are effective in improving crop yields and conserving water resources.
Drip irrigation is used because it's the method that wastes the least amount of water. All drops end up right at the roots of the plants, at a pace which easily lets the soil absorb it.

Possibly you are talking about drip irrigation.
Irrigation is the process of supplying water artificially to the plants through land or soil. Some of the commonly used irrigation types are surface irrigation, localized irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, sub irrigation, automatic irrigation and in-ground irrigation.
