Answer:(a) He should use drip irrigation because drip irrigation saves much more water than sprinkler irrigation
(b) Fertilizers are highly absorbable. So manures are mixed with fertilizers to provide all the essential nutrients to the plants. A combination of manures and fertilizers promote healthy growth and higher yield of crops. It also helps to improve the texture and quality of the soil.
