What does chemigation refer to in the context of pesticides?

  1. Application of pesticides to plants using drones

  2. Application of pesticides to a target site in irrigation water

  3. Application of pesticides through aerial spraying

  4. Application of pesticides through manual spraying

The correct answer is: Application of pesticides to a target site in irrigation water

Chemigation is the process of applying pesticides or other chemicals through irrigation water. This allows for targeted application of pesticides to the specific areas where the pests are located, reducing the potential for off-site contamination. A and C are incorrect because they involve application methods that do not involve irrigation. D is incorrect because it involves manual spraying, which is a less precise and potentially more harmful method of pesticide application compared to chemigation.
