Making Rainbows: Dry Weather Irrigation Creates Colorful Masterpieces
June 23, 2009
Dry weather has forced area farmers to turn to center pivot irrigation systems to save their crops. The overhead sprinkler systems can create rainbows that can sometimes been seen for hours . The wheeled towers with the sprinklers are advanced slowly in a circular pattern around a center pivot. A nearby well provides the water supply for each irrigation system.
For more photos of the irrigation rainbows, click here.
