Ways of water conservation in agriculture: Agricultural water is often lost due to leaks in Canals, run off and evaporation.
Some Of the water conserving methods are:
- using lined or covered canals that reduce loss of water and evaporation.
- using improved techniques such as sprinklers and drip irrigation.
- encouraging the development of crops that require less water and are drought resistant.
- mulching of soil in vegetable cultivation and in horticulture.
