Difference between sprinkler and drip system

Dear student, 
​Please find below the solution to the asked query        

Sprinkler system  is a type of irrigation useful for the soil which lacks water retaining capacity & uneven land.   In this type of  system,  the perpendicular pipes, having rotating nozzles on top, are joined to the main pipeline at regular intervals. When water is allowed to flow through the main pipe under high pressure with the help of a pump, it escapes from the rotating nozzles and gets sprinkled on the crops as if it is raining.  So, it is beneficial for the irrigation of sandy soil and uneven lands. 

Drip irrigation  is a method of irrigation in which irrigation water is supplied to the plants directly using small pipes having holes through which water drips slowly to the roots of the plant, thereby reducing both the consumption and loss of water.
