Irrigation has many advantages over reliance on natural water supplies:
- Water supplied by irrigation supplies hydrogen and oxygen elements to the crop plants.
- Irrigation of crops makes the soil moist, which is required for the germination of seeds.
- With irrigation, cultivation can be done round the year and during the rainy season only.
- Irrigation loosens the soil and thus helps in elongation and growth of roots.
- The supply of water by irrigation is regular and reliable, where as rainfall is often seasonal or unpredictable.
- Modern multipurpose dams not only provide water for irrigation but also control floods and generate hydroelectric power.
