Right choice is (a) Perennial Irrigation

Explanation: In perennial irrigation, system water is supplied at a constant and continuous rate from perennial water sources, which get their supplies from melting snow, in accordance with the requirements of crop. Water is supplied by canal distribution system using a weir or reservoir.
