Beschreibung

This book Principles and Practices of Irrigation Agronomy will be useful for students of irrigation, agronomy, agricultural engineering, scientists, agronomists, irrigation engineers, development professionals and professionals working in allied fields. With world population increasing at an alarming rate, there will be a substantial increase in demand of food, fodder and fiber in future. People with knowledge and skills in irrigation agronomy will have good demand for finding solutions to the problems of unproductive lands due to lack of irrigation and inadequate agronomic practices. Unproductive and arid lands will become substantially productive with irrigation agronomy. Productivity of lands now producing crops under natural rainfall can be increased considerably with irrigation. The capital investment necessary to make productive lands with irrigation worldwide will far exceed the areas currently under irrigation. The longest irrigation canals, most effective irrigation systems, the largest water reservoirs, are to be constructed in the coming years. With ever increasing population and food insecurity, the demand for additional irrigation facilities will go up rapidly.
