Irrigation is the prime criterion for satisfactory cultivation of crops.
Surface irrigation is the even distribution of water over the entire land surface; while free flooding irrigation is the unchecked flowing of water over a flat cultivating ground, till the land is partially submerged in water to some extent.
Well and tube well irrigation is practiced where sufficiently deep well or tube wells can be constructed on the field, as the sources of irrigation water.
Similarly, Canal irrigation is practiced where a perennial river or lake is available close to the fields, to enable the creation of canals. Tank irrigation is practiced where a large water tank can be made to store the water on the fields of the farmers.
Drip or trickle irrigation is the distribution of water through several tubes that are installed all over the field. The manual irrigation is the water distribution over the plants with buckets or water cans.
The cropping pattern is the cultivation of different types of crops at suitable seasons of the year and the amount of land entitled for the cultivation of each crop.
Now the extensive uses of advanced farming equipments, fertilisers and better irrigations have brought positive changes in the cropping patterns that involve the cultivation of different hybrid seeds.
