The water melon crop requires sufficient soil moisture. During shortage of water holes are made at the bottom of a fully matured fruit to allow the inside water to ooze out. The fruit is then placed over the root portion of the plant. This method of drip irrigation not only saves the crop from drying but also helps other fruits to attain full size. Damaged fruits can also be used for irrigating the plants. |
