This method of irrigation is gaining popularity in areas with a scarcity of water. Narrow pipes with small holes are laid on the fields. When water flows through the pipes, it drips at the place of the roots of the plants. The roots absorb the water and supply it to the plants. Furthermore, no water is wasted in this method.

The process of transferring the seedlings from the nursery to the main field by hand is called transplantation or transplanting.
The various advantages of the transplantation process are given below:
(i) The process of transplantation enables us to select only the better and healthy seedlings for the cultivation of crops. The bad seedlings can be rejected. This selection is, however, not possible when the seeds are directly sown in the soil.
(ii) The process of transplantation allows better penetration (deeper penetration) of the roots in the soil.
(iii) The process of transplantation promotes better development of the shoot system of plants.
(iv) The process of transplantation allows the seedlings to be planted at the right spacings so that the plants may get uniform dose of sunlight, water and nutrients.

Transplanting increases the flower or fruit-bearing season of many plants, thus it helps in economic growth and therefore it is an important method followed in agribusiness.

Animal husbandry refers to livestock raising and selective breeding. It is the management and care of animals in which the genetic qualities and behavior of animals are further developed for profit. A large number of farmers depend upon animal husbandry for their livelihood.
Animals provide us with a variety of food products which have high nutrient values. Therefore, they require a lot of care and attention.
Animals are bred commercially in order to meet the high demand for food. Dairy products from animals like cows, buffaloes, goats, are rich sources of protein. These animals are called milchy animals as they provide us with milk.
