Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
The increasing of global coffee demand has led the coffee boom in Vietnam. The Central Highland is the main coffee area of Vietnam. DakNong has coffee land rapid expansion recent years. More immigrants come that share small land of farming. Farmers trended to enhance more fertilizer and water irrigation to have more yield and they resulted in problems on land and water resources. The special typology and climate drive farmers to overuse water usage for their coffee farms in the study area. Lacking of water supply, farmers irrigated more fresh water from rivers. And with the unpredictable of climate change, the prolonged dry season causes exhausted water on ponds and irrigation dams and less water on the river branches; that drive farmers exploiting the ground water for irrigation. The results from the study also showed the location where the irrigation system had developed, farmers trended to apply the water usage as the technical advisement. Other areas without irrigation dams, farmers overuse water from the rivers, even four times higher than the technical advisement. This study expected to have the proper irrigation supports for farmers to have better management on water resource in this province.
