Water tank is a container used for

• Distributing water

• Storing water

• Accumilating water

• Disposing water

Water is distributed over and across land by gravity, no mechanical pump involved.

• Drip irrigation

• Surface irrigation

• Center pivot irrigation

• Lateral move irrigation

Water is distributed through a series of pipes, each with a wheel and a set of sprinklers, which are rotated either by hand or with a purpose-built mechanism. The sprinklers move a certain distance across the field and then need to have the water hose reconnected for the next distance. This system tends to be less expensive but requires more labor than others.

• Lateral move irrigation

• Manual irrigation

• Drip irrigation

• Manual irrigation

Water is distributed across land through manual labor and watering cans. This system is very labor intensive.

• Sub-irrigation

• Center pivot irrigation

• Sprinkler irrigation

• Manual irrigation

Water is distributed across land by raising the water table, through a system of pumping stations, canals, gates, and ditches. This type of irrigation is most effective in areas with high water tables.

• Sub-irrigation

• Manual irrigation

• Sprinkler irrigation

• Manual irrigation
