Keywords:
Subsurface, Capillary action, Evaporation, Root zone, Runoff, Moisture retention.Abstract
This article introduces the SCI system while also demonstrating a method to
teach English vocabulary, grammar, and communication skills through agricultural
science. Incorporating real-world topics into language education is an effective strategy
for enhancing vocabulary retention and practical language use. One such topic is
Subsurface Capillary Irrigation (SCI) — an innovative water-saving technology used in
modern agriculture. Subsurface Capillarity irrigation is a technique that allows much
better optimization of the use of water resources in the field of gardening, agriculture
and home gardens. Capillarity is the ability of water to be able to filter to be distributed
through all air spaces until they are covered
