AUMENTO DA PRODUTIVIDADE AGRÍCOLA ATRAVÉS DA IMPLANTAÇÃO DE SISTEMA DE IRRIGAÇÃO

Abstract

This work presents as a central goal the analysis of the importance of irrigation in Brazilian agriculture and, for that, uses a bibliographic review as a methodological basis. Irrigation is a process that dates back to antiquity. Peoples have already appropriated this technology as a means of assisting their subsistence. It is not always that the human being can count on the water that arrives through the rain to ensure a good agricultural production. Therefore, due to the droughts, the losses are often significant for the farmer, a situation that also has an impact on the country's economy. For that, it is necessary to give extra attention to agriculture. Irrigation emerges as the technology that increases crop production and technological advancement is extremely important, as the production capacity is increasing.
