The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is inundated. The word "inundated" means to cover or flood with water. In this context, it is the most accurate word to describe the action of the flood water. The flood water did not protect, cultivate, or groove the agricultural fields. It simply inundated them, or flooded them with water. The other options are not as appropriate.
