'''Irrigation''' is the process of making rocky ground suitable for [[farming]]. This is done by [[flood]]ing it with [[water]]; once the water is removed, the tiles are labeled as "muddy". This is also called '''muddying''' the floor, as the dry floor tile is then a "muddy <type of stone> floor". Once an area is muddy, you can then build [[farm plot]]s. During the winter, all of the mud in your fortress will dry up, so each spring you will need to irrigate your farming areas once again. | '''Irrigation''' is the process of making rocky ground suitable for [[farming]].
