Irrigation Efficiency
Water conveyance Efficiency
It takes into account, conveyance or transit losses such as seepage through canal and evaporation through it.
η_c=W_f/W_r ×100
Where, Wf = water delivered to the field
Wr = water delivered from river or stream
Water Application Efficiency
It is the ratio of water stored in root zone to the water delivered to the field.
η_a=W_s/W_f ×100
Where, WS = water weight stored in root zone
WS = Wf – deep percolation – runoff
Wf = water delivered to the field
This efficiency is also called as farm efficiency and it depends on the irrigation technique that has been adopted.
Water use efficiency
It is the ratio of water used beneficially or consumptively to the water delivered to the field.
η_u=W_u/W_f ×100
Where, Wf = water delivered to the field
WU = consumptively used water
Water Storage Efficiency
This is the ratio of actual water stored in the root zone to the water needed to be stored to bring the moisture content upto field capacity.
Water Distribution efficiency
This evaluate the degree to which water is uniformly distributed to the root zone throughout the field area.
η_d=(1-y/d)×100
Where, d = average depth
y = Average numerical deviation in the depth of water stored from the average depth stored during irrigation
Question – the depths of penetration along the length of a border strip at points 30 m apart were proved. There observed values are 2 m, 1.9 m, 1.8 m, 1.6 m and 1.5 m. Compute the water distribution efficiency.
Solution –
Water distribution efficiency,
η_d=(1-y/d)×100
Where, d = average depth
d = (2+1.9+1.8+1.6+1.5)/5=1.76
And y = average numerical deviation
y = 1/5((2-1.76)+(1.9-1.76)+(1.8-1.76)+(1.76-1.6)+(1.76-1.5)=0.168
Therefore,
η_d=(1-0.168/1.76)×100
η_d=90.45%
Consumptive Use Efficiency
It is the ratio of water used consumptively to the net amount of water from the root zone.

The type of handpump technology suitable for a particular area depends on the groundwater level, water quality and hydrogeological conditions. There are some areas like the costal belt in the southern part of Bangladesh, where the conventional shallow and deep tubewlls technologies are not successful due to the high salinity. Alternative water supply options are needed for those areas.
The ultimate guide for drip irrigation 2018Amar Sawant
This Guide will teach you everything you need to know about Drip Irrigation.
Components Of Drip irrigation system
Cost of installation
Government subsidy
And Guidelines For Maintenance and much other valuable information that I’ve never shared anywhere else before.
Let’s get started…
The available water for agriculture is decreasing day by day due to increase in population, industrialization, and short rainfall. it has become essential to use modern irrigation technologies like Drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation in agriculture
Drip irrigation means providing the required quantity of water directly to the root zone of Crop plants through a network of small pipes this is also called micro-irrigation or trickle irrigation.
This is the most efficient irrigation technique.
In Drip irrigation system water supplies to plant roots through a collection of plastic pipes, lateral tubes, and valves. These components, controlled with the help of dripper and water pump. with help drip irrigation system it is become easy to provide liquid fertilizer to plant root system.
the present ppt describes about irrigation methods following from the ancient periods to up to now. the present ppt also describes about sprinkler and drip irrigation methods. it gives an elaborate knowledge on irrigation methods.
Advantages of the buried diffusers compared with the drip irrigationchahtech
The Buried Diffuser is a highly efficient technique for underground irrigation. Scientific results and successful experiences in different farms in arid and semi-arid regions prove the advantages of using it.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. DRIP IRRIGATION
Drip irrigation can be defined as the drop by
drop application of water near to the root
zone of the crop.
It has potential to save the water and
increases the irrigation efficiency.
It is also called as Trickle irrigation.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
3. In drip irrigation water is applied at the slow
rates say 2-10 litres/hour
Water applied near the root zone spread
laterally as well as vertically due to capillary
action in the soil
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
4. WORLD HISTORY OF DRIP IRRIGATION
IN BRIEF
1. Fan sheng- chih shu, written in Chinese
during the 1st century, describes about use of
buried, unglazed clay pots filled with
water(referred as Ollas).
2. Modern drip irrigation began its
development in Germany in 1860 – used clay
pipes to create a combination of irrigation +
drainage, by 1920 perforated pipes were
introduced.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
5. 3. Use of plastic bags to hold and distribute water
was developed in Australia by Hannis Thill.
4. Usage of plastic emitter in drip irrigation was
developed in Israel by simcha blass and his son
Yeshyahu.
5. As these tiny holes were blocked by tiny particles,
larger holes with longer passages and slow water
velocity were developed inside plastic emitter, this
type of experimental system was established in
1959 by blass, he partnered with K Hatzerim to
create irrigation company “NATAFIM”
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
6. 6. Blass and Hatzerim together developed and
patented first practical surface drip irrigation
emitter.
7. In 1960s the 1st drip tape(called Dew hose)
was developed by Richard Chapin of Chapin
watermatics in united states, this Chapin
watermatics was acquired by Jain irrigation in
2006.
8.Use of drippers in sub surface irrigation
network was 1st experimented with in germany
in 1869.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
7. 9. The drip system was developed for field crops
in Israel, Australia, North America(1960s).
10. Area under drip irrigation in USA was 1M ha,
followed by INDIA, Spain, Israel.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
8. INDIAN HISTORY OF DRIP IRRIGATION
IN BRIEF
1. Started by irrigating a Tulsi plant kept in
courtyard.
2. During summer months this plant was
irrigated by hanging a pitcher containing
water and a minute hole at its bottom to
allow trickling of water on to the plant.
3. Tribal farmers of Arunachal Pradesh have
practiced a primitive form of drip irrigation
using slender bamboo for water flow.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
9. 4. At present around 3.5 lakh ha area is under
drip irrigation in India by the efforts of GOI,
earlier it was only 40ha in 1960.
5. Maharashtra(94,000ha), Karnataka(66,000ha),
Tamil Nadu(55,000ha) are top 3 in drip irrigation
area.
6. TREE crops occupy maximum percentage of
total area under drip irrigation followed by vine
crops, vegetables, field crops, flowers and other
crops(24%).
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
10. DRIP SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The components of drip irrigation are classified
into
1) Control Head
2) Distribution network
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
11. CONTROL HEAD
Control head basically includes
1. pump or over head tank,
2. fertilizer or chemical application device and
3. filters.
Various parts that comes under the control head
are as follows:
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
12. VARIOUS PARTS OF CONTROL HEAD
a) Water Source: Well, reservoir or streams etc..
b) Pump: Creates pressure and makes the
discharge.
c) By Pass Line: it is provided so that pumped
water can be used for other activities when
irrigation is not going on.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
13. d) Fertilizer Applicator: To add fertilizer to the
water directly in the pipeline.
e) Pressure Gauge: measures the pressure head.
f) Sand Filter: To remove coarse impurity of
water coming from water source or clogs from
fertilizer.
g) Gate Valve: To regulate the flow of water in
the main pipe line.
h) Screen Filter: A line filter is placed at the end
of control head to avoid clogging in drippers
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
14. DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
This part is responsible for distributing the water
to the crop received by control head.
a) Main Line: It is made of HDPE or PVC having
diameter in the range of 50 - 75mm and is
able to withstand a pressure head of at least
4 - 6kg/cm2.
b) Sub main: It is made of HDPE or PVC having
diameter in the range of 37 - 63mm and can
withstand 2 - 5kg/ cm2 pressure.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
15. c) Ball Valve: To engage or disengage a specific
sub-main.
d) Flush Valve: These are provided at the end of
sub mains (function at VVIP slides).
e) Laterals: These are made of LDPE/
LLDPE(because they can be easily removed
during ploughing) and having diameter in the
range of 12 - 16mm. It has an ability to
withstand 2 kg/ cm2 pressure.
f) Drippers: These are small emission devices
having small flow rates and are made of poly
propylene.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
17. DIFFERENT TYPES OF FILTERS
Basically four different kinds of filters are
observed in drip irrigation, they include:
1. Sand/media/gravel filter
2. Hydrocyclone filter
3. Screen filter
4. Disc filter
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
18. 1) Gravel/Media/Sand filter: This filter is used
when there is open water source like rivers
etc... It removes both organic and inorganic
impurities. It has gravels and sand(silica
sand). It also traps the algae.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
20. 2) Hydrocyclone filter They use the centrifugal
force to spin sand out of water. It is often used
when water source is well or bore which
contains more sand. Hydrocyclone causes
spinning action which causes heavier sand
particles to separate from water and trapped in
storage tank at the base. Hydrocyclones are
generally used in conjunction with another type
of filter.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
22. 3) Disc filter Disc filters are excellent on most
types of contaminants. They consists of number
of grooved discs stacked on top of each other.
This gives 3D filtering effect which works
effectively on sand and organic matter such as
decaying weeds and algae.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
24. 4) Screen filter Screen filter works well with
inorganic matter such as silt and sand. They
generally consists of very fine stainless steel
mesh that traps particles.
These are cheaper to purchase than any other
filter used in drip irrigation.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
26. TYPES OF DRIPPERS
There are two types of drippers namely
1. In – line drippers
2. On – line drippers
If emitters are present inside the laterals they
are called as In - line drippers.
If emitters are present outside the laterals they
are called as On - line drippers.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
27. VVIP POINTS TO REMEMBER
Operating pressure of drip irrigation is
1kg/cm^2 (10mts pressure head), where as
operating pressure of sprinkler irrigation is
2.5kg/cm^2 (25mts pressure head), without
this pressure sprinkler Does not rotate.
Bypass valve is responsible for operating
pressure maintenance in drip irrigation,
because of that only pressure gauge is present
on it.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
28. VVIP POINTS TO REMEMBER
By pass valve also sends back excess water.
Flush vale function – due to continuous
irrigation calcium present in water gets stuck.
It is used for flushing out garbage. In standing
crop we should use phosphoric acid, where as
in the off season or land with no crops we can
use Sulphuric acid, this process is called as
CHEMIGATION
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
29. ADVANTAGES OF DRIP IRRIGATION
1) Maximum use of available water
2) No water being available to weeds
3) High efficiency in use of fertilizers
4) Less weed growth and restricts population of
potential hosts
5) Low labour and relatively low operational
cost
6) No soil erosion
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
30. 7) Maximum crop yield
8)Improved infiltration
9) No run off of fertilizers into ground water
10) Less evaporation losses of water on
comparison to surface irrigation
11) Improves seed germination
12) Decreased tillage operations
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
31. DISADVANTAGES OF DRIP IRRIGATION
1) Sensitivity to clogging
2) Moisture distribution problem
3) Salinity hazards
4) High cost compared to furrows
5) High skill is required for design, install and
operation
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
32. FERTIGATION/DRIP FERTIGATION
Application of fertilizers along with irrigation is
called as fertigation.
Fertigation increases both water and fertilizer
use efficiency, it enhances both the yield and
quality of crops
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
33. CHARECTERISTICS OF FERTILIZERS FOR
FERTIGATION
Success of fertigation primarily depends
characteristics of fertilizers used for fertigation.
1) Must be completely water soluble(< 0.02%
insoluble in water) and have quick dissolution
in water with minimum content of
conditioners
2) Must not react with dissolved elements in
water especially calcium and magnesium
salts
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
34. 3) High nutrient content in saturated solution,
must not get leached down easily from soil
4) Should not change the pH of the water
leading to precipitation and clogging
5) Should avoid corrosion of the system
6) Should be safer for field use and for mixing
with other chemicals
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
35. SOURCES OF NUTRIENTS
Use only the recommended fertilizers in
recommended quantity
Liquid fertilizers are pure and they do not
precipitate, they are acidic(pH 5.5 – 6.5), they are
also used for correcting soil pH, and to some
extent they also help in prevention of clogging of
emitters.
Use chloride free fertilizers for chlorine sensitive
crops like tobacco, grapes, citrus, arecanut and
vegetables
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
37. FERTILIZERS UNSUITABLE FOR
FERTIGATION
1) Aqueous ammonia
2) Calcium nitrate
3) Calcium ammonium nitrate
4) Potassium sulphate
5) Zinc nitrate
6) Ferric sulphate
They all are unsuitable because of precipitation and
clogging problems
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
38. CONCENTRATION OF NUTRIENTS
For proper growth of plants the following
nutrients should be supplied in single or
combination at appropriate concentrations
1) Nitrogen(150-200ppm)
2) Phosphorus(50ppm)
3) Potassium(200-400ppm)
4) Calcium(150-200ppm)
5) Magnesium(50ppm)
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
40. PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN DURING
FERTIGATION
1) Every emitting point must deliver same
amount of water
2) Material used should not cause corrosions
3) Constant operation pressure to facilitate
uniform mixing of water and fertilizers
4) Selection of most appropriate fertilizers,
injection systems and crops
5) Fertilizers/pesticides/chlorine should not be
injected at the same time
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
41. TIME OF FERTIGATION
Frequency of fertigation depends upon nature
of crop + duration of crop + growth habit +
yielding ability.
Generally fertigation is done
weekly/fortnightly depending upon the crop
needs
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
42. TYPES OF FERTIGATION SYSTEMS
There are 4 types of fertigation:
1. Through Venturimeter
2. Through Fertilizer tank
3. Through Ferti - jet pump
4. Through Gravity
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
43. FERTIGATION THROUGH
VENTURIMETER
It is based on Bernoulli's theorem ( pressure is
inversely proportional to velocity).
If pressure is increased the velocity decreases, if
the pressure is decreased the velocity increases.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
45. In venturi meter at the center a narrow
passage is created, this narrow passage makes
the pressure difference which is lower than
the atmospheric pressure.
This narrow passage is connected with the
liquid fertilizer bucket.
Due to negative pressure, suction is created
and liquid fertilizer is mixed with the irrigation
water.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
48. In a fertilizer tank, one control valve(v1) and 2
gate valves(v2 & v3) are used, with which
irrigation water are controlled.
A fertilizer tank is connected between valve v2
& v3.
During fertigation v1 is closed and v2, v3 are
opened.
The irrigation water is mixed with fertilizer in
fertilizer tank and supplied to the main line.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
50. FERTIGATION THROUGH FERTI – JET
PUMP
NOTE Venturi and Fertilizer tank does not require
external power and they are not precise in
application of fertilizer.
Ferti – jet pump requires external power,
controlled amount of fertilizer is added and it is
precise in application of fertilizer.
In general positive displacement pump (piston
type) is used in ferti – jet pump.
It is used in automated drip irrigation system and
hi – tech green houses.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
53. FERTIGATION THROUGH GRAVITY
An over head tank is used, which is placed at
sufficient height.
This tank is connected through pipe line with
the main line.
A control valve is used to control the amount
of fertilizer.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
55. ADVANTAGES OF DRIP FERTIGATION
1) Improves efficiency in fertilizer use, generally
60-80% of recommended dose of fertilizers
through water soluble form was observed to
be sufficient and secure equivalent yields of
crops as obtained with the application of
100% straight fertilizers.
2) High nutrient availability due to maintenance
of soil moisture near field capacity under drip
irrigation.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
56. 3) Fertilizers could be applied as frequently as
possible and at those stages of crop growth
when demand is maximum.
4) Higher water use efficiency and 30-40%
economy in use of irrigation.
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
57. DISADVANTAGES OF FERTIGATION
1) Uneven nutrient distribution occurs when
the irrigation system is faulty
2) It leads to over fertilization or leaching of
nutrients when excess water is applied to the
crops.
3) Chemical reactions of the fertilizer with
calcium and magnesium bicarbonates in
water leads to clogging
Manda Raghavendra Reddy
58. 4) Suitable for readily soluble or liquid fertilizers
5) Phosphatic fertilizer and some micro nutrients
may precipitate in micro irrigation system
6) Corrosion resistant fertigation equipment's
are needed
7) Potential chemical backflow in water supply
source
