Riego por aspersión: Con este método el agua se aplica al suelo en forma de lluvia utilizando unos dispositivos de emisión de agua, denominados aspersores, que generan un chorro de agua pulverizada en gotas. El agua sale por los aspersores dotada de presión y llega hasta ellos a través de una red de tuberías cuya complejidad y longitud depende de la dimensión y la configuración de la parcela a regar. 1, record 1, Spanish, - riego%20por%20aspersi%C3%B3n
