Provide water to farmland (8)

I believe the answer is:

irrigate

(Other definitions for irrigate that I've seen before include "Water land by means of ditches etc" , "Pour water on" , "Provide water artificially" , "Provide water to (crops)" , "Water land to increase its fertility" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
