Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning and Evaluation of Irrigation Projects: Methods and Implementation presents the considerations, options and factors necessary for effective implementation of irrigation strategies, going further to provide methods for evaluating the efficiency of systems-in-place for remedial correction as needed. As the first book to take this lifecycle approach to agricultural irrigation, it includes real-world examples not only on natural resource availability concerns, but also on financial impacts and measurements. With 21 chapters divided into two sections, this book is a valuable resource for agricultural and hydrology engineers, conservation scientists and anyone seeking to implement and maintain irrigation systems. - Uses real-world examples to present practical insights - Incorporates both planning and evaluation for full-scope understanding and application - Illustrates both potential benefits and limitations of irrigation solutions - Provides potential means to increase crop productivity that can result in improved farm income

Download or read book Role of Sediment Transport in Operation and Maintenance of Supply and Demand Based Irrigation Canals: Application to Machai Maira Branch Canals written by Sarfraz Munir and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work describes the role of sediment transport in the operation and maintenance of demand-based downstream controlled irrigation canals. Sediment deposition in these irrigation canals severely affects the operation of the automatic flow control system. The book also discusses sediment transport modelling in irrigation canals. A simplified 1-D mathematical model SETRIC (SEdiment TRansport in Irrigation Canals) has been improved with the inclusion of downstream control component for the downstream controlled irrigation canals. Based on field measurements and sediment transport modelling, a number of approaches have been proposed for sediment management in such irrigation canals by improvement in their design and operation. This book will be of interest to Irrigation Engineers and Managers, Hydraulic Engineers, Water Resources Engineers and Managers, Civil Engineers, and Agricultural Engineers.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing risk of severe droughts and water shortages emphasizes the need for an integrated approach to drought mitigation. However, effective tools for the implementation of such an approach have not been available till now. This book contributes to an improved preparedness for drought in water supply systems, providing tools useful for a better decision making process in drought management. It presents methods and software features of a Decision Support System (DSS) developed within a European research project and consists of three main parts. The first part deals with the advanced techniques for hydrological drought identification and monitoring; the second analyses the successful use of climate-crop-soil models in defining deficit irrigation strategies; the third provides tools for improving the operation of irrigation supply reservoirs.

Download or read book Trickle Irrigation for Crop Production written by F.S. Nakayama and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entirely new agricultural technology, trickle or drip irrigation, began its development in the early 1960's. Initial progress was sporadic even though the advantages in water management with trickle systems were recognized. Operators were reluctant to use the system because of its high initial cost and questions regarding its reliability. Once the main problems were isolated and solutions developed to make the system reliable, rapid acceptance by the growers resulted. Today, trickle irrigation is being used on crops that were earlier considered to be uneconomical. This multi-purpose handbook brings together current knowledge from various engineering and scientific disciplines (crop, hydraulic, irrigation and soil sciences) needed for understanding the trickle irrigation system for crop production. The two dozen contributors are experts on the various subjects, which range from the basic to the more practical aspects of trickle irrigation. Major topics include design, operation and management - with individual chapters covering historical development, emitter construction and clogging, system design, water and salt distribution, automation, water treatment, irrigation scheduling, maintenance, fertilization and salinity.The book greatly expands the scope of research papers, reviews, extension bulletins, and updates earlier text with new information on trickle systems. A multi-disciplinary approach has been taken on a multi-faceted subject. The material contained in the book is the most comprehensive yet developed on the topic. Illustrative sample problems and solutions provide field operators and extension personnel with information needed to install and maintain trickle systems. As it is up-to-date, it is useful as a teaching and reference source for students, manufacturers and irrigation system operators as well as irrigation and crop specialists, and consultants.

Root zone salinity management using fractional skimming wells with pressurized Irrigation: proceedings of the Project-End Workshop 2003 written by Asghar, Muhammad Nadeem and published by IWMI. This book was released on 2003-03-03 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detailed hydro-geological investigations were carried out while implementing SCARPs in the Chaj Doab. These investigations yielded a data set of groundwater quality at different depths of the aquifers (spatial) especially in the SCARP-II saline zone. In MREP area, 138 public tubewells, having strainers from 30-35 m till 60-75 m depth of the aquifer, were installed during the 1970s to help meet the irrigation water demand at farm level. The MREP, who was made responsible for operation and maintenance of these deep tubewells, continuously monitored the performance of these tubewells as well. Therefore, the pumped groundwater quality data (temporal) of these spatially distributed tubewells was also available. This data availability served as a basis for site selection using GIS analysis.The GIS analysis, which was used in classifying different groundwater quality zones, helped in selecting fifteen villages (thirteen in MREP area and two in SCARP-II saline zone) that have hydro-geological potential for installing and operating skimming wells. In these selected villages, preliminary survey was carried out to get information on the farmers' willingness to use skimming well technology. Based on the GIS analysiS and preliminary survey, different sites in six villages (two in SCARP-II saline zone, and four in SCARP-II non-saline zone) were selected to carry out the Diagnostic AnalysiS (DA) for investigating the hydro-salinity and hydro-geological conditions of the aquifer. Based on the DA results, four villages for the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) to assess farmers' practices and perceptions in opting for skimming well technologies.
