A Study on Determination of Crop Water Requirement and Irrigation Scheduling for Sathyamurthi Project (Poondi)
In India agriculture is the mainly uses the water, so that well planned usage of water in agriculture is very much important. Nowadays in India severe shortage of water is developing and hence becoming scarcity of water for agriculture. The main motive of the project is to conserve water with the help of software that determines all the needs for the crop to grow. The initial site information such as soil details, cultivation area, and water resources are collected. Additionally, a survey is made to get the exact information on cultivated crops. With the data obtained using the software’s namely CROPWAT and CLIMWAT, the geographical details can be estimated. A station is chosen, and the rainfall data is obtained. Referring to the values obtained from the station, the values are then inputted into the CLIMWAT software. This provides the data regarding the climate and the site’s rainfall. We now move to the crop details and other parameters required with the climate and rainfall details being done. As we have already visited the site, the soil samples were collected prior. Sieve analysis and jar tests were conducted to determine the soil type and texture. After the determination of soil, the soil type is selected in the CROPWAT model, and then the soil data is inputted. The crops mainly grown in that surroundings were obtained by the survey made, and now this data is inputted into the CROPWAT software. This extracts the details of the crop needs, such as the water required, the soil needed, and the time to sow and harvest. The water source nearby the selected site is the Poondi reservoir, and the water requirement data is inputted, and the water/irrigation details are obtained. With this data, we know at what interval, when, and how much water is needed for the crop to grow. Thus, with this information obtained, the excessive use of water can be regulated, and water can be conserved. This is an excellent source of knowledge for anyone new to agriculture.
