This manual was produced by NSW Agriculture in 2002, as part of the WaterWise on the farm education program Introduction to Irrigation Management.
The aim of the workshop was to:
- introduce you to skills and techniques for improved water use efficiency and irrigation system management
- highlight the importance of efficient surface irrigation and the methods available to manage or modify a surface system for efficient operation and improved production
- help you to perform tests on your own system, and identify whether you need to change equipment, or how you operate it, to improve your irrigation efficiency
The key sections include:
- introduction to surface irrigation
- flow rate and volume into the farm supply system
- the irrigated field
- surface drainage and reuse systems
- irrigation system checklist
This workshop was made up of three topics:
- farm supply
- the irrigated field
- surface drainage and reuse
In conclusion, the workbook contains a worked example for each of the activities to enable you to evaluate your surface irrigation system.
