ACTIVITY 3.3
Answer the following
1. What are the main functions of irrigation system?
2. Where we can obtain an irrigation plan?
3. What are the reasons why there's a need to have an irrigation system?

Irrigation helps to grow agricultural crops, maintain landscapes, and revegetate disturbed soils in dry areas and during periods of less than average rainfall. Irrigation also has other uses in crop production, including frost protection, suppressing weed growth in grain fields and preventing soil consolidation.
Irrigation water can come from groundwater (extracted from springs or by using wells), from surface water (withdrawn from rivers, lakes or reservoirs) or from non-conventional sources like treated wastewater, desalinated water, drainage water, or fog collection.
Excess water can be harmful to your soil, drown your plants and even lead to the germination of weeds. An irrigation system helps to control the amount of water you're using. Proper absorption and drainage is an important part of a good irrigation system.
