Irrigation is the first agricultural technology beyond basic farming. With it, your civilization learns how to use water to boost crops, and how to manipulate large quantities of water in general. The tech allows your civilization to cultivate more advanced crops, via the plantation improvement. It also allows harvesting of the Bananas bonus resource and clearing of Marshes. Note that in order to activate the Eureka moment for this tech you need to build a Farm on a Resource (either Wheat or Rice)! A Farm built on plain land won't do.
