QUESTION
Is open well or borewell better for irrigation?

I recently purchased two acres of agricultural land in Uthiramerur, Tamil Nadu. I want to grow native trees but with minimum and sustainable use of water and electricity. Also, want to have least dependency on external labour. Is drip irrigation the best option? I have heard from my neighbours that water from borewell is not the right option since it is a dry land.
