Irrigation in India includes a network of major and minor canals from Indian rivers, groundwater well based systems, tanks, and other rainwater harvesting projects for agricultural activities. Of these groundwater system is the largest. 

The various traditional method of irrigation are

1)Moat(pulley system)

2)Chain pump

3)Dhekli

4)Rahat(lever system)

Traditional method of irrigation are cheaper but less efficient.Pumps are commonly used for lifting water.These pumps run by electricity,diesel,biogas or solar energy.

When a pump is used to draw out water from a narrow well,it is called tube-well.They are used increasingly for lifting underground water to be used for irrigation in agriculture.
