Inhaltsangabe

This book provides a comprehensive overview of water management principles essential for climate-resilient agriculture. It covers the importance of irrigation, key hydrological concepts, India’s irrigation history, rainfall patterns, reservoirs, tanks, and groundwater resources. Detailed chapters explain soil physical properties, soil-water relationships, infiltration, percolation, hydraulic conductivity, and types of soil water. The text also discusses soil moisture constants, evapotranspiration, consumptive use, irrigation requirements, scheduling methods, and efficient irrigation systems. Various surface irrigation methods—wild flooding, check basin, furrow, border strip—and drainage systems are analyzed with their advantages and limitations. The book emphasizes water use efficiency, genetic and management factors affecting crop water productivity, and irrigation efficiencies from conveyance to overall project performance. Overall, it serves as a practical and scientific guide for optimizing water resources in modern agriculture.
