Book Irrigation Subsector Guidance Note

Download or read book Irrigation Subsector Guidance Note written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2017-04-01 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One irrigation subsector goal of the Asian Development Bank is to produce more food with less water. Estimates suggest that food production in the developing world must double by. By that year, urban and industrial water demand will have increased from 20% of total regional demand to 40% (about 80% of that water demand is for irrigation). This publication helps define core support areas in the irrigation subsector and set the course for country partnership strategy investments in irrigation for lending and nonlending assistance. See how this guidance note can assist and strengthen the preparation of projects that increase food productivity and security, use water within the resource availability limits, and produce long-term benefits.

Book Improving irrigation project planning and implementation processes in Sub Saharan Africa  Diagnosis and recommendations

This book was released on 2006-01-23 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaknesses in planning and implementation (P&I) have been identified as one of the main reasons for the disappointing results of agricultural water development and management projects. Based on a review and critical analysis of experiences and case studies in sub-Saharan Africa, this studycomponent proposes practical ways of improving performance related to planning and implementation and thereby enhancing the returns to investments in agricultural water.

Book Principles of Project Formulation for Irrigation and Drainage Projects

Download or read book Principles of Project Formulation for Irrigation and Drainage Projects written by George R. Baumli and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1982-01-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Technical Committee on Project Formulation for Irrigation and Drainage Systems of the Irrigation and Drainage Division of ASCE. This report sets forth the generally accepted principles of project formulation and provides a guide for the planning and review of irrigation and drainage projects. Irrigation and drainage projects should be formulated to accomplish their intended purpose with full consideration of physical, economic, social, and environmental factors.Ø Irrigation and drainage projects have numerous common elements regardless of their size, scope, and location. This guide describes the series of steps involved in project formulation, as well as checklists. Topics include: determination of objectives, identification and definition of problems and needs, evaluation of available resources, development of alternative means of resolving problems and meeting the needs, evaluation of the alternatives, and selection and implementation of the recommended plan.

Book Irrigation Management for Diversified Cropping

Download or read book Irrigation Management for Diversified Cropping written by International Irrigation Management Institute and published by IWMI. This book was released on 1987 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improvements in rice growing technologies during the last two decades have resulted in a number of countries, especially in the humid tropical regions of Asia, nearing self-sufficiency in rice production. Consequently, policies are shifting in these countries toward minimizing the under-utilization of land by increasing the cropping intensity of irrigated areas, particularly by growing non-rice crops during the dry season. These workshop papers discuss the advantages of and constraints to crop diversification in different country situations throughout Asia.

Book Trickle Irrigation for Crop Production

Download or read book Trickle Irrigation for Crop Production written by F.S. Nakayama and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entirely new agricultural technology, trickle or drip irrigation, began its development in the early 1960's. Initial progress was sporadic even though the advantages in water management with trickle systems were recognized. Operators were reluctant to use the system because of its high initial cost and questions regarding its reliability. Once the main problems were isolated and solutions developed to make the system reliable, rapid acceptance by the growers resulted. Today, trickle irrigation is being used on crops that were earlier considered to be uneconomical. This multi-purpose handbook brings together current knowledge from various engineering and scientific disciplines (crop, hydraulic, irrigation and soil sciences) needed for understanding the trickle irrigation system for crop production. The two dozen contributors are experts on the various subjects, which range from the basic to the more practical aspects of trickle irrigation. Major topics include design, operation and management - with individual chapters covering historical development, emitter construction and clogging, system design, water and salt distribution, automation, water treatment, irrigation scheduling, maintenance, fertilization and salinity.The book greatly expands the scope of research papers, reviews, extension bulletins, and updates earlier text with new information on trickle systems. A multi-disciplinary approach has been taken on a multi-faceted subject. The material contained in the book is the most comprehensive yet developed on the topic. Illustrative sample problems and solutions provide field operators and extension personnel with information needed to install and maintain trickle systems. As it is up-to-date, it is useful as a teaching and reference source for students, manufacturers and irrigation system operators as well as irrigation and crop specialists, and consultants.
