Drip irrigation systems and micro - sprinklers are two popular options for water - efficient irrigation. Drip irrigation systems deliver water directly to the plant roots through a network of tubes and emitters. This method minimizes water evaporation and runoff, making it highly efficient.

Micro - sprinklers, on the other hand, spray a fine mist of water over a small area. They are suitable for areas with delicate plants or where precise watering is required. Both drip irrigation systems and micro - sprinklers can be integrated with a larger sprinkler system to provide a comprehensive irrigation solution.

These water - saving irrigation methods are becoming increasingly popular as people become more aware of the importance of conserving water.
