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.

It is a system by which water is applied above the ground in the form of spray some what resembling rainfall.
The spray (small water droplets) is caused by making the water to flow under pressure through small nozzles or sprays.
The difference is that this rainfall can be controlled in duration and intensity.
A sprinkler system conveys water through pipes and applies it with a minimum amount of losses.
advantages of sprinkler irrigation includes the following but not limited to
Accurate measurement of the applied water, rendering high water use efficiency.
Eliminates excessive losses from deep percolation, surface runoff and conveyance losses
Land with irregular topography can be irrigated by sprinklers without much leveling and land preparation.
Can be used on soils with low water holding capacity
Can be used on sloping lands

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

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.

2. •Course no. - AGRON-504
•Course title - Principles and practices of water
management
•Topic name - Methods of irrigation
3. Introduction
Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the
land or soil.
It is used to assist in the growing of agricultural
crops, maintenance of landscapes, and revegetation of
disturbed soils in dry areas and during periods of
inadequate rainfall.
5. BenefitsOf Irrigation
Increase in crop yield
Protection from famine
Cultivation of superior crops
Elimination of mixed cropping
Economic development
Hydro power generation
Domestic and industrial water supply
8. SurfaceIrrigation
• In all the surface methods of irrigation, water is either
ponded on the soil or allowed to flow continuously over
the soil surface for the durationof irrigation.
• It doesnot result in high levelsof performance.
• Thisismainly becauseof uncertain infiltrationrates
which are affected by year-to-year changesin the
cropping pattern, cultivation practices, climatic factors,
and manyother factors.
9. UncontrolledFlooding
• When water isapplied to the cropland without any
preparation of land and without anyleveestoguide or
restrict the flow of water on the field, the method is
called ‘uncontrolled’, wild or ‘free’flooding.
• Uncontrolled flooding generally results in excess irrigation
at the inlet region of the field and insufficient irrigation at
the outletend.
• Efficiency isreduced becauseof either deep percolation
or flowing away of water from the field.
• Theadvantageof this method isthe low initialcost of
land preparation.
10. BorderStripMethod
• Border strip irrigation (or simply ‘border irrigation’)is a
controlled surfaceflooding method of applying irrigation
water. In this method, the farm isdivided into anumber
of strips. Thesestrips are separatedby low levees(or
borders).
• Theborder strip method issuited to soilsof moderately
low tomoderately high intake rates and low erodibility.
• Thismethod, however, requires preparation of land
involving high initial cost.
12. CheckMethod
• Thecheckmethod of irrigation isbasedon rapid
application of irrigation water to alevel or nearly level
areacompletely enclosed bydikes.
• In this method, the entire field isdivided into a
number of almost levelled plots (compartmentsor
‘Kiaries’) surrounded bylevees.
• Thismethod issuitable for awide rangeof soilsranging
from very permeable to heavysoils.
• Lossof water through deep percolation (near the supply
ditch) and surfacerunoff canbe minimised and adequate
irrigation of the entire farm canbeachieved. Thus,
application efficiency ishigher for thismethod.
• Thereissomelossof cultivable areawhich isoccupied by
the levees.
15. FurrowMethod
• Analternative to flooding the entire land surface isto
construct small channelsalong the primary directionof the
movement of water and letting the water flow
through these channelswhich are termed‘furrows’,
‘creases’or ‘corrugation’.
• Furrows necessitate the wetting ofonly about half to
one-fifth of the field surface.Thisreducesthe
evaporation lossconsiderably.
• Furrows provide better on-farm water management
capabilities for most of the surface irrigationconditions, and
variable and severe topographical conditions.
• Possibility of increasederosion
• Furrow irrigation requires more labour than anyother
surface irrigation method.
17. SubsurfaceIrrigation
•Subsurface irrigation (or simply sub irrigation) is the
practice of applying water to soils directly under the
surface. Moisture reaches the plant roots through
capillary action. The conditions which favor sub
irrigation are asfollows:
•Impervious subsoil at adepth of 2 meters ormore,
•Avery permeable subsoil
•Apermeable loam or sandyloam surfacesoil,
•Uniform topographic conditions, and
•Moderate groundslopes
18. SprinklerIrrigation
Sprinkling isthe method of applying water to the soil
surface in the form of aspraywhich issomewhat similar
to rain.
Rotating sprinkler-head systemsare commonly usedfor
sprinkler irrigation.
Eachrotating sprinkler headapplieswater to agiven area,
sizeof which isgoverned by the nozzlesizeand the water
pressure.Alternatively, perforated pipe can be usedto
deliver water through very small holes which are drilled
at closeintervals alongasegmentof the circumference of a
pipe
19. Sprinklers havebeen used on all types of soils on lands of
different topography and slopes, and for many crops. The
following conditions are favorable for sprinkler irrigation:
• Very previous soils which do not permit good
distribution of water by surfacemethods,
• Landswhich havesteep slopesand easilyerodible soils,
• Irrigation channelswhich are too small todistribute
water efficiently by surface irrigation,and
• Landswith shallow soils andundulating lands which
prevent proper leveling required for surfacemethods of
irrigation
20.
21. Advantages
• Lowwater loss(efficiency up to80%)
• Savingin fertilizer
• Suitable for anytopography
• Nosoil erosion
• Better seedgermination, free aeration of rootzone
• Uniform application of water
22. Disadvantages
• Highinitial cost, cannot adopt by ordinaryfarmers
• Poorapplication efficiency in windy weatherand
high temperature
• Highevaporation losses
• Water should be free of debris
• Physicaldamageto cropsby application of high
intensity spray
23. Trickle(Drip)Irrigation
• Trickle irrigation systemcomprises main line, sub mains,
laterals, valves(to control the flow), drippersor emitters ,
pressuregauges,water meters, filters , pumps, fertilizer
tanks,vacuumbreakers, and pressure regulators.
• Thedrippers are designedto supplywater at the desired rate
(1 to 10 liters per hour) directly to the soil. Lowpressure
headsat the emitters are considered adequate asthe soil
capillary forces causesthe emitted water to spreadlaterally
andvertically.
24.
25. Advantages:
• Lowwater lossand hencesaveswater
• Enhancesplant growth and plant yield
• Saveslabor andenergy
• Control weedgrowth
• No soil erosion
• Improves fertilizer applicationefficiency
26. Disadvantages:
• Highskill in design,installation, and subsequent
operation
• Cloggingof small conduits andopeningsinemitters due
to sand,clayparticles, debris, chemical precipitates and
organicgrowth
• Not suitable for closelyplanted cropssuchaswheat and
other cerealgrains
