2 Importance of Irrigation Water Management in Water Scarce Regions Development of framework using SWAT for irrigation water management of command area Case study Application

3 Irrigation agriculture is a primary user of diverted water Irrigated agriculture is caught between two perceptions that are contradictory agriculture is highly insufficient by growing waterguzzling crops irrigation is essential for production of sufficient food in the future, given the anticipated increases in food demand due to world population growth and changes in diets Globally, food production from irrigation represents more than 40% of the total and uses only about 17% of the land area devoted to food production Irrigated agriculture practiced with complete disregard to resource conservation and sustainability Most efficient irrigation water management Water saving and maximizing its productivity

4 Failure in water saving strategy insufficient water supply for irrigation will be the norm irrigation management will shift towards maximizing the production per unit water consumed, the water productivity. Deficit irrigation strategy - application of water below full crop-water requirements Deficit irrigation can lead to greater economic gain in case of drought and water scarce condition

5 Objective To evaluate the crop yield for deficit irrigation, and to select the most suitable and sustainable irrigation planning strategy under rotational irrigation system in the irrigation command

6 Components of Framework Watershed- Total command area, Subbasin- Outlet command area; Stream-Canal, HRU- Allocation unit Tool framework mainly comprises three modules: Allocation rules module SWAT modules economic module Framework also has a facility to use crop growth module externally Water allocation rules can be given as input according to water availability in reservoir Soil water balance is done through SWAT module External crop growth model uses output of ETp and ETa from SWAT Economic module computes cost of cultivation of crops, gross and net benefits of individual crop as well as project net benefit for respective allocation rule Tool framework is able to estimate daily updates of reservoir storage

7 1 Development of Conceptual Framework Input Data: Allocation Units (AUs), crop, soil, weather related data, reservoir storage data Allocation Rules Provide various combinations of Water Allocation Rules Initialize Reservoir Storage Day = 1 (Max. 365 days) SWAT AU = 1 Soil = 1 3 Crop = 1 6 Initialize soil moisture 5 4 Estimate root zone depth, ET o and effective rainfall

8 2 1 Update soil moisture in root zone 5 Continued SWAT Estimate ETa Estimate depth of irrigation according to Allocation Rule Yes Is the event day of irrigation? 4 No 6 All Crops over? Yes No Crop = Crop + 1 All Soils over? No Soil = Soil + 1 AU = AU + 1 No Yes All AUs over? Yes Calculate Canal Water Release Canal Network Model

9 2 Update Reservoir Storage SWAT Continued Terminate Yes Is reservoir storage less than or equal to dead storage or predefined stage? 3 No All days over? No Yes Obtain crop growth stage- wise ET o, ET a for each crop, soil and in AU Plant Growth Model Estimate Crop Yield Economics Model Estimate Net Benefit Estimate carry over storage Output: Canal Water Storage, Net Benefit, Crop Yield for each Crop, Soil and AU, Carry over Storage
