What does the term 'Duty' refer to in irrigation?
Think about how water is distributed over land.
True or False: Delta measures the area that can be irrigated.
Remember what each term specifically refers to.
A field of 500 hectares has a discharge of 4 cumec. Calculate the Duty. After this, using a base period of 30 days, determine the Delta required for the crops.
Work step by step, starting with Duty and then applying the Delta formula.
If a farmer has an irrigation system with a Duty of 100 hectares/cumec and calculates a Delta of 5 meters for a growing period of 20 days, is this efficient? Discuss reasons for your conclusion.
Think about ways to optimize the applied water completely in irrigation systems.
