CANAL BASED IRRIGATION SCHEDULING AND CONJUNCTIVE WATER USE PLANNING FOR OPTIMAL CROPPING PATTERN-A REVIEW
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 58
Abstract
The success of water delivery in canal irrigation projects is measured based on whether water is delivered according to the required water delivery targets in an adequate, dependable, efficient and equitable fashion. One of the most critical issues affecting the inequitable distribution of water at the farmer’s field is due to the seepage loss that makes farmers at the tail end to get less water compared to farmers at the head of the water course. Therefore, a modeling approach can be adopted for incorporating the seepage loss along the length of water course /or it's branch. Conjunctive-use strategies has been found to be the most suitable choice for optimum utilization of available land and water resources. Many attempts have been made in the previous studies to optimally allocate the land, water, and other resources of an area to meet different specific objectives. Therefore, in this study a comprehensive review of literature is undertaken considering the past, present methodologies applied to address these issues and future projections for efficient canal based Irrigation scheduling and conjunctive water use planning for optimal cropping pattern.
