L’irrigation par bassin est la plus connue dans l’irrigation gravitaire. Sa pratique sur un sol nivelé (pente 0,1 à 1 %) ainsi que la simplicité de l’opération, qui consiste à remplir le bassin, font que cette technique est fréquemment utilisée. Dans plusieurs régions du Maroc, la taille des bassins est de 40 à 50 m² et cette technique est connue sous le nom de «Robta». Cette dernière occasionne une perte importante de superficie due au nombre important de cloisonnements. 2, record 2, French, - irrigation%20par%20bassins
