Question

1. which type of irrigation loses the most water to evaporation?

subirrigation
overhead irrigation
flood irrigation
drip irrigation

Explanation:

Overhead irrigation sprays water into the air, exposing a large surface area of water directly to the atmosphere, which leads to high evaporation loss. Subirrigation delivers water below the soil surface, flood irrigation has water on the soil surface but less exposed than overhead, and drip irrigation targets plant roots with minimal exposure.

Answer:

overhead irrigation
