planting crops. It involves several
practices to create a favorable
environment for plant growth and
development.
F. Motivation

Activity 1. This activity called, Jumble Word.

Each group will choose their one representative to

unscramble the letters to form the correct word
within the given time limit. Points are awarded to
the group who is the one to form a word. Is that
clear?

Just raise your hand, if you know the answer.

Okay let us start! Yes, Ma’am.

1. RIGATONI
Group 1: IRRIGATION, Ma’am!

Correct!

2. DIRP
Group 2: DRIP, Ma’am!

Correct!

3. HOAVERED
Group 3: OVERHEAD, Ma’am!

Correct!

Group 4: FURROW, Ma’am!

4. WORRUF

Correct!
Group 2: MANUAL, Ma’am
5. LAUNAM

Based in our activity, what do you think our lesson

for today? It’s all about irrigation, Ma’am
Yes! You are right!

Now, in your own idea, what is irrigation? Irrigation is the process of applying water
to crops artificially to meet their water
requirements. It plays a crucial role in
agriculture, ensuring the growth and
development of plants.
Very good!

“Water is an integral activity in the farm. Without

water, our vegetables will wilt and succumb to pest
and diseases.”

“There are four common types of irrigation systems”

“First, is the Drip irrigation”

Can someone please read the meaning of drip Drip irrigation are pipes with small
irrigation? outlets are installed in the soil surface
just above the roots. Water is delivered
at low pressure with a rate of 2-20
liters/hour every 1-3 days

“Thank you”

“Using this type of irrigation has pros and cons”

“Someone please give me the pros?”

 Water is directly watered to the
roots
Very good  Water- saving
If there is an advantage there is also a disadvantage,
can someone tell me what are those?”

 Requires capital for pipes and

water pump and filtration system
 Water should be free of
Very good. Thank you! sediments or else the outlets will
be blocked
“Next, is the Overhead Irrigation”

Can someone give me the meaning of Overhead

irrigation?
Overhead- Sprinklers are mounted
strategically in between plots. A high-
pressure water pump sends the water

through the sprinklers.

It also has pros and cons

Please read.

Pros- less labor require

Controlled watering

Cons- requires capital for sprinklers

Thank you!
Uneven distribution

Who can read irrigation type number 3?

Furrow- a hoe or a pick mattock is used

to elevate a portion of the soil to form
ridges and excavate furrows. The ridges
will absorb water from the furrow.
Thank you!

“What are the Pros and Cons of these type of

irrigation?
Pros- recommendable for large and
small- scale farms

Cheaper than the overhead and

drip irrigation

Thank you! Cons- labor-intensive during land

 preparation

“And the last type of Irrigation system is the most Not appropriate for sandy soils
common type, that is Manual Irrigation”

“Give me your ideas of what is manual irrigation”

Manual Irrigation. It requires the use of

Thank you. hand sprinklers and other hand tools to
water plants.

“Can someone give me the Pros and Cons of this

irrigation system?”

Pros- saves cost on infrastructural and

engineering.

That is correct! Cons- labor-intensive

Prone to spills and uneven

distributions
“There are also Physical Signs of Overwatering”

 Wilting Leaves
 Soggy soil
 Edema
 Moldy soil

ASSIGNMENT

1. Explain the main characteristics and advantages of

drip irrigation compared to other types of irrigation
systems. Provide examples of situations where
drip irrigation would be the most suitable choice.
2. Discuss the potential drawbacks and limitations of
using overhead irrigation. Explain why this type of
irrigation may not be suitable for certain crops or
soil types.

3. Compare and contrast furrow irrigation with other

types of irrigation systems in terms of water
distribution, soil erosion, and labor requirements.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of
furrow irrigation in different agricultural contexts.

4. Evaluate the effectiveness of manual irrigation in

large-scale agriculture. Discuss the challenges and
benefits of using manual labor for irrigation and
provide examples of situations where manual
irrigation would be the most appropriate choice.
