- It has a successor in the Middle Age, Wheeled Plow.
- Irrigation is a terrain modification performed by a settler, worker, or engineer. Irrigated terrain usually produces more food for a city than before it was irrigated.
- Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the soil usually for assisting in growing crops. In crop production it is mainly used in dry areas and in periods of rainfall shortfalls.

Irrigation is the application of water to crops. The water may be diverted from a stream or pumped from a well. Irrigation is used during drought in humid areas, but is usual in arid climates. Irrigation is also used to suppress weeds in rice fields and to protect plants against frost. Agriculture that relies only on direct rainfall is referred to as rain-fed farming. Irrigation is often studied together with drainage, which is the natural or artificial removal of surface and sub-surface water.
- Irrigation was a technique for distributing water. While on Amerind, James T. Kirk proposed a system to irrigate the local fields and double the food supply. It would depend on a canal bringing water from a lake to the lodge. (TOS: "The Paradise Syndrome" ) Shortly before the colony was attacked by the Jem'Hadar, New Bajor had established an irrigation system that was said to be a sight to see.
