Journal Title: Open Access Journal of Agricultural Research - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Irrigation plays an important role in production of agriculture. However, with the passage of time shortage in water resources is affecting agriculture productivity adversely [1]. Increasing water shortage has led to put pressure on agricultural engineers to apply water more efficiently for irrigation in order to improve water productivity [2].
