[answer any one]

Answer 1

Advantages of tube well irrigation. The water table is fairly close to the surface. More reliable during periods of drought when surface water dries up.

The tube well should be driven in a good aquifer having sufficient storage. ... The tube well should have sufficient storage to fulfill the inadequacy of the canal irrigation. The tube well should help in improving the ground water conditions.

Answer 2

Two advantages of tube wells as a method of irrigation are:-

* Tube wells can irrigate larger areas than

surface wells.

* They can supply water even during the

droughts as they can draw water even

from great depths.
