Energy, Irrigation And Water Supply

Description

This new perspective of irrigation management has been applied to both projects as well as policies and has greatly enhanced the ability to improve irrigation performance and sustainability. Irrigation is the process of supplying water to land or crops to help growth, typically by means of channels. Water supply is the provision of water by public utilities, commercial organisations, community endeavours or by individuals. Energy is required for irrigation and water supply operations. This book covers the fundamentals of energy, irrigation, and water supply, including water resources management, irrigation systems, water distribution, and energy use in irrigation and water supply. It is an excellent resource for students and professionals in the fields of agricultural engineering, civil engineering, and water resources management.
