Water scarcity is the major challenge being faced around the globe, chiefly pronounced in the developing countries. The existing utilizable water resources are not enough to irrigate the entire cultivable area of the world. The aggravated decreasing trend of per capita water availability resulting from rapidly escalating population therefore requires judicious use of available water resources than ever before. This can be achieved through controlling conveyance losses in distribution network and increasing application efficiency of irrigation water. For this purpose, an On-Farm...

Water is an indispensable component of socio-economic development of a nation. Unfortunately, due to degradation water resources are getting increasingly scarce on the globe. Adequate supply of water is also crucial for survival of humans, terrestrials as well as aquatic population on this planet. While appreciating water scanty aspect, irrigated agriculture being highest water-consumer among other competing sectors requires judicial use of existing water resources than ever before. This can be achieved through adoption of scientific irrigation scheduling (SIS) techniques. Recent advances in...

Water is getting increasingly scarce & expensive commodity in most parts of the world. This is especially true for irrigation systems, where effective and responsible water management is indispensable. For effective operation of irrigation systems, an estimate of irrigation water requirement (IWR) is of basic concern. Since IWR is influenced by rainfall & evapotranspiration (ET), a reliable estimate of expected rainfall and ET is of great importance. Efficient utilization of rainfall during rainy season will help in saving irrigation water in the storage reservoirs that could be...

Water is a fundamental resource for all life systems and a crucial component of irrigated agriculture. Nevertheless, due to degradation it is getting increasingly scarce. In order to fulfil the food and fibre requirements of rapidly growing population, emphasis is placed more on efficient use of existing water resources than on new resource developments. Latest advances in computer technology provide the opportunity for information gathering, transferring and processing to be done much more easily, efficiently, and sometimes automatically. The present study was aimed at developing...
