Effect of irrigation method on water conservation
Water use efficiency and economic factors for selection of irrigation methods for farm systems and projects are examined; review of comparative studies of water application and operational efficiencies is presented which indicates that farmers obtain approximately same application efficiency with sprinkler irrigation as do research workers; researchers however, obtain considerably higher efficiencies than farmers when using surface irrigation methods; review of comparative irrigation costs demonstrates relative cost between methods and facilities when limiting resource is land or water; effect of methods on management of both farms and projects is considered.
