irrigators
Farm watering systems
Irrigators are people or devices that supply water to land for growing crops.
The term covers farmers who manage irrigation systems as well as the equipment itself—sprinklers, drip lines, and other apparatus that deliver water to fields: The irrigators met to discuss water rights.
Center-pivot irrigators transformed Great Plains agriculture.
