Create a chart comparing the efficency and suitability of different irrigation methods for vegetable crops.

Irrigation Method	Water Use Efficiency	Suitability for Vegetable Crops	Advantages	Disadvantages
1. Flood	Low	Onion, garlic, pea, spinach, coriander, fenugreek and amaranthus	Applicable to leveled soils, low operational cost using gravity, no need for skilled labor, and no specialized equipment required.	Unscientific method with high water loss, uneven water distribution, increased weeds, nutrient loss, and unsuitable for certain crops.
2. Border	Low	All vegetable Crops	Easy to prepare, operate, and maintain; suitable for irrigating crops on steep slopes using small strips.	Needs flat land, high water flow, not suitable for sandy soil, and requires proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.
3. Check Basin	Moderate	Bitter gourd, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, melons, etc.	Suitable for irregular fields with high water application and distribution efficiency.	Requires proper leveling, more labor, hinders farm machinery use, and not suitable for waterlogging-sensitive crops.
4. Furrow	Moderate	Tomato, brinjal, potato, chili, radish, carrot, cauliflower, etc.	High water efficiency, fewer weeds, low cost, easy to use, less labor, low evaporation, and suitable for most soils.	More labour needed, hinders machinery, and not suited for sandy or uneven land.
5. Sub-surface	Moderate	All vegetable Crops	Less water loss, no interference with farm work, and easy water level control.	High installation cost, hard to find leaks, costly repairs, and not suitable for crop germination irrigation.
6.Sprinkler	High	All vegetable Crops	Works on uneven land, saves water, supports farm tools, allows input use, covers more area, and protects from frost.	High cost, affected by wind, unsuitable for salty water, needs skilled labor, and not ideal for tall, widely spaced crops.
7. Drip	Very High	All vegetable Crops	Saves 40–60% water, boosts yield, reduces weeds and labor, delivers fertilisers to roots, and suits hilly areas.	Very costly, needs regular care, requires technical skill, and not suitable for salty water or soil.
