Moving water from a
river/canal to land.
This water is used for 
farming (agriculture)

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Surface irrigation/Flood irrigation
The easiest way to water your crops (gewassen). 
Let water flow over your fields. 

Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Sprinkler irrigation (beregening)
Water is sprayed into the air with machines,
it falls down on crops like rain.


Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Drip irrigation
Plant are being watered drip by drip.
Water is placed directly at the 
root (wortel) of the plant.
