Sprinkler irrigation is advantageous because it allows for large areas of land to be irrigated, which means that farmers can cover a lot of ground and water more crops at once. This can be particularly helpful for large-scale commercial farmers who need to irrigate vast areas of land. Additionally, the system is relatively easy to install, making it accessible to a wide range of farmers, including smallholder farmers. While it may not be affordable for all peasant farmers, it can still be a viable option for many.
