RAINING IRRIGATION HISTORY
Abstract
The history and development of sprinkler irrigation technology has become an important part of the efficient use of water resources in agriculture today. This article aims to study the historical foundations of sprinkler irrigation, its stages of development, technological changes, and practical applications. The origin of sprinkler irrigation dates back to ancient times, but its scientific foundations and modern methods emerged in the 19th and 20th centuries. The article analyzes the evolution of the technology, its efficiency, environmental impact, and economic benefits through important inventions and research.
