Summary

Farmland seen from an airliner. The circles you can see are irrigated crops being grown, they are called 'Pivots'.

Centre-pivot irrigation (sometimes called central pivot irrigation), also called circle irrigation, is a method of crop irrigation in which equipment rotates around a pivot.  A circular area centered on the pivot is irrigated, often creating a circular pattern in crops when viewed from above.

SOS Children's Villages has brought Wikipedia to the classroom. SOS Childrens Villages believes education is an important part of a child's life. That's why we ensure they receive nursery care as well as high-quality primary and secondary education. When they leave school, we support the children in our care as they progress to vocational training or higher education. Sponsoring a child is the coolest way to help.
