Salt balance, irrigation efficiency, and drainage design

Bouwer, H.

Simplified procedure to predict irrigation water need, in addition to that for evapotranspiration, to maintain salt balance in root zone; key factor in procedure is leaching efficiency; salt tolerance of crop, salt concentration of irrigation water, and evapotranspiration are taken into account; procedure accurately predicted known leaching requirements for salt balance of three irrigated regions; it is shown how drainage flow from root zone decreased with time after irrigation and how water table response of system of parallel drains to flow can be computed for design of drainage system to avoid high water tables.
