Irrigation 

Deficiency of soil moisture during crop growth lowers down the yield , for realizing better crop growth and higher yields , the deficiency of soil moisture can be met by applying water to the soil to supply moisture essential for crop growth is called as ' Irrigation ' .

Disadvantage of irrigation: 

Climate becomes damp and cold causing bacterial discases Over irigation with poor drainage in an area where water high leads to water logging condition, which reduces crop yield drastically 1 Excessive scepage from unlined canal leads to water logging of lands adjacent to canals 4 Salt concentration in soil is increased due to continuous irigation and soils become unfit for cultivation.

TEXTURE :
