The sources of water for irrigation can include surface water sources, groundwater sources, municipal water supplies, grey-water sources, and other agricultural and industrial process wastewaters.

Surface water sources include 'flowing' water supplies (i.e., creeks, streams, canals) and 'standing' or stored water supplies (i.e., ponds, reservoirs, lakes).

Groundwater supplies may come from springs and wells, and although the quality is usually good, the available quantity that can be pumped at any time may again limit the irrigation method.

Grey-water is domestic wastewater, other than that containing human excreta, such as sink drainage, washing machine discharge or bath water.

The quality of agricultural or industrial process wastewaters often limits their use to surface or sprinkler irrigation methods, and in their suitability for fruit and vegetable crop irrigation.

The various sources of irrigation are..
1. Wells and tubewells.. With the help of tube wells small farmers who do not have much money can irrigate their field in cheap rate. This method takes a lot of time and labour.
2. Canals.. Canals are also the way to irrigate field in easy way.
3.Tanks.. with the help of tanks the field can be irrigated easily but is Little expensive than the both above options.

hope this helps you...
