Water scarcity is the major challenge being faced around the globe,
chiefly pronounced in the developing countries. The existing
utilizable water resources are not enough to irrigate the entire
cultivable area of the world. The aggravated decreasing trend of
per capita water availability resulting from rapidly escalating
population therefore requires judicious use of available water
resources than ever before. This can be achieved through
controlling conveyance losses in distribution network and
increasing application efficiency of irrigation water. For this
purpose, an On-Farm Water Management (OFWM) package employing
modern irrigation systems augmented with improvement of
watercourses, laser land levelling and resource conservation
technologies is imperative. Present toil was aimed at presenting
in-depth discussion on aforesaid components of OFWM package. This
book is useful for a broad range of users; from field engineers and
extension specialists to water managers at the farm, district, and
higher levels for enhancing the water productivity of irrigation
projects as well as for a variety of objectives and applications.
