Efficient Use of Water under Irrigation Management Practices for Surface Irrigated Rice
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2021, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
With the continuous climate change we are experiencing; extreme heat, drought, and declining water supplies that affect our rain fed and irrigation systems resulting to a higher demand for water for evaporation and evapotranspiration by crops which lead to more frequent soil moisture deficit which is unavoidable and there are still other factors that contributes to water head loss. This make it necessary to find out novel ways to resolve the issues regarding irrigation management. Though there are many existing innovative water management ideas available out there, but it takes to shed huge amounts of government funds to implement. This study consists of designing a water-recycle model to efficiently use the limited water supply and further attain to serve the total surface area of irrigated rice. The proposed design uses a renewable energy that pumps out water from the catch basin back to its water source, this method entirety use the most out of the water supply to lessen water wastage and water shortage and to maximize water saving in the area
