Furrow irrigation
Definition:

A method similar to corrugation irrigation used in permeable soils. It consists in feeding narrow furrows very close to one another with small discharges so as to wet more easily all the soil situated between two rows of crops (often orchards). Furrows parallel to the rows may be laid mechanically with a drill plough.
