Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation Management: The Operation, Maintenance and Betterment of Works for Bringing Water to Agricultural Lands The irrigation manager and his assistants are comparing to be appreciated more and more as important factors in the successful growth of agriculture in the western part of the United States. Within the past few years innumerable irrigating canals, big and little, have been built, bringing water to many millions of acres, In planning these enterprises the chief thought and effort of those concerned was to build works to bring water to more lands. It was assumed that, when this was done, the areas thus reclaimed would be quickly utilized and that there would rapidly grow up a prosperous and contented population. This happy condition has not followed; we are beginning to see that the planning and building of irrigation works is only the beginning; possibly it is the easiest part of the problem of conservation and use of the resources of the arid and semi-arid regions. The really difficult and at times discouraging work is that of properly utilizing the irrigation systems after they are built and of getting fair returns from the irrigated lands. Thousands of intelligent, active men are concerned more or less directly in those operations having to do with the obtaining and distribution of water to the agricultural lands.

Download or read book Soil Conservation in Irrigated Areas Classic Reprint written by Graham S. Quate and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-09 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Soil Conservation in Irrigated Areas In viewing the scattered and oasis-like agricultural communi ties of the western states, it is difficult for the casual observer to realize that more often than not every bit of greenery in sight is de pendent upon the artificial and almost continuous application of water. In fact, the very presence of human habitations in many western locali ties depends upon the availability of water for irrigation. Thus it is understandable why so many land-users in the West continually emphasize the necessity for direct and determined attacks upon problers which have to do with the control and use of water. Under such circumstances, it is obviously impossible to develop and carry out comprehensive soil conser vation programs without taking into account the varied land-use problenm which are directly or indirectly related to availability of water supply and the utilization of such water for irrigation and other purposes.

This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation for the Farm, Garden, and Orchard The profits which are derived from work and enter prise, depend, not so much upon the extent of these, as upon the effectiveness of the methods employed to make them productive. Five acres, or ten, well cultivated, and supplied with abundant water, will yield, in the course of ten years, as much profit as fifty, or a hundred acres, equally well cultivated, but without any provision for the necessary moisture. Many years of observation, and renewed experiences, during the past eight years, have shown that at least one year in three, there is a deficiency of water for the production of full crops, and the crops of the greatest value suffer the most in such seasons. It is scarcely necessary to do more than to call attention to these facts, leaving to the good sense and' the enterprise of American farmers, the adoption of the requisite methods of evading from drouth losses, and the securing of a more satisfactory remuneration for their labor, by the use of the surplus water on their farms, both flowing upon the surface or below it, in such ways as are pointed out in the following pages.

This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation Development and Public Water Policy This is a study of the economic and social considerations that are part and parcel of irrigation development and public water policy. No longer can an irrigation project be considered solely in terms of the engineering problems it raises. Indeed, its success depends equally upon economic feasibility and social use. Although the federal government has carried on organized activity in this field for more than fifty years, no comprehensive coverage of the problems in irrigation development has been attempted since 1927, when Ray P. Teele published his notable work on the economics of land reclamation. New concepts, new approaches and procedures, have been applied and ever more attention is being paid to the socioeconomic implications. Admittedly, the problems of irrigated agriculture and its place in public water policy are complicated and controversial; nevertheless, a full, up-to-date survey seems necessary to assess the accomplishments of the past twenty-five years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evaporation Losses in Irrigation and Water Requirements of Crops The writer also hopes that the results will shed additional light on the subject of extending irrigation in the semiarid portion of the West, where the water supply is limited in volume and where agri culture is likely to be a combination of a small area irrigated with a larger area cultivated without irrigation. Here the conservation of moisture, whether supplied by rainfall or by irrigation, is the funda mental agricultural necessity.
