Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 54
Abstract
The irrigation sources are still limited in the state of Madhya Pradesh. The percentage of net irrigated area sown was 43.2 and percentage of gross irrigated area sown was 32.3. The main source of irrigation is through wells 2456 thousand hectare (36%), tube wells 2056 thousand hectare (31%), canals 1115 thousand hectare (17%) and tanks 140 thousand (2%). Some other sources like different small rivers, river basin etc. 947 thousand hectare (14%) in the state. The availability of diesel engines and electric motors has increased from 0.053 to 0.300 and 0.041 to 0.494 kW/ha respectively during the period 1971- 72 to 2012-13 in India. In India, the share of electric motor increased from 14 to 28.8% during the last 41 years. The selection of stationary power has now become very difficult in Madhya Pradesh as well as in India because of availability of variety of stationary power models.
