800 - What role does irrigation play in agriculture?

Irrigation helps plants grow by giving them the right amount of water, when and where they need it. It's like a special watering system for farms. Irrigation:

  1. Supplies water to crops when it's not raining.
  2. Helps plants grow faster and stronger.
  3. Increases the amount of food farmers can grow.
  4. Allows farmers to grow crops in areas with little rain.

Think of it like giving your plants a drink when they need it, so they can stay healthy and strong.
