Drip irrigation [r]: "Is a method that promotes water optimization by using a series of tubing or pipes that feed water into specific plant growing sites. Attached the to the tubing is a series of specific misters or drippers that provide specific amounts of water based on plant needs (Additional drippers can be added to increase irrigation for example). The water is slowly dripped into the plant location thereby minimizing water loss while optimizing plant growth. "
