Sprinkler irrigation. Sprinkler systems mimic natural rain conditions by distributing water by spraying it over fields. Water is piped under pressure ... through sprinklers or through perforations or nozzles in pipelines and thus forms a spray.... Sprinklers may rotate or remain fixed. Perforated lateral pipelines require less pressure than rotating sprinklers and release more water per unit of time than rotating sprinklers. 5, record 1, English, - rotary%20sprinkler
