1 Training for Asian Young Professionals on Performance Assessment of Irrigation Systems ( 9 th to 13 th April 2018 in Beijing, China) Experiences on performance assessment and modernization of Irrigation systems in Karnataka, India By M G Shivakumar Chief Engineer VJNL, UBP Zone, Chitradurga Water Resources Department, Karnataka, India Contents Modernization Experiences in Karnataka, India Performance assessment-external & Internal indicators Follow-up action on Modernization activities Allied modernization activities ABOUT KARNATAKA Karnataka is the Seventh largest Indian State by Area. Geographical area of the State :1,91,791 Sq. Km ( Lakh Ha.) accounting for 5.83% of the total area of the country. Cultivable Command Area of the State Net Sown Area of the State Lakh Ha Lakh Ha. Ultimate Irrigation Potential of the State from all sources : Major & Medium Irrigation Minor Irrigation Ground Water TOTAL : Lakh Ha. : Lakh Ha. : Lakh Ha. : Lakh Ha. MASSCOTE Workshops -Karnataka Almatti Lifts NLBC & NRBC VNC & TLBC Hemavathy Irrigation Potential of Lakh Ha. achieved under Major & Medium Irrigation up to March Mean annual rainfall of the State is 1,355 mm. More than 73% of this rainfall is received due to the South West monsoon. 3 1

3 HIGH LAND PRODUCTIVITY (TLBC+VNC) 3200 $/YEAR/IRRIGATED AREA HIGH WATER PRODUCTIVITY(TLBC+VNC) 0.63 $/M3 Interventions due to MASSCOTE - Results and Impact Complete re-engineering of the whole rehabilitation package of Bennithora system Measuring devices (flumes) installed for the first time on canals Redesigning of canal offtakes and regulators in Gandorinala project for better canal operation Water reached stretches beyond 110 km upto 200 km (for first time) in Bhadra system Telemetry system of data acquisition and transmission in GLBC & 6 other projects IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY FOR MODERNIZATION 1.The policy issues ; i. Revised approach to hydraulic equity ii. Accept the need for flexible Cropping patterns. iii. Shift from protective to productive irrigation iv. Service oriented management (SOM) and explicit IWRM v. Revisiting the concept and practices of Payment for water services 2. Improve the internal performance indicators 3. Improve the water use efficiency 4. Capacity building at all levels 5. Establishing a centre of excellence in WRD (AC-IWRM) 6. Plan for Modernization, Monitoring and Evaluation 3

4 Vision G-B An economically sustainable and equitable water delivery system which supports growth of agriculture wealth by increasing recycling and conjunctive use. Vision Bhadra A modern, economically sustainable, multi purpose water resource project maximizing agricultural output and water productivity through adoption of modern irrigation management techniques, participatory management by stake holders, greatly enhancing the quality of life of the people and economic outputs while preserving and enhancing the quality of environment. TLBC-Canal Suggestions Operation for one improvements-short Year term Allocation of water to the distributaries to be determined by installing measuring devices at initial reaches of outlets. Water to be supplied to the tail enders first Providing hand held GPS to each sub-division to measure cropped area of the individual farmer Silt removal and jungle clearance of the distributaries has to be done before start of season. Action for arresting the leakages found in some outlets, gates of escapes, certain reaches of embankments of distributaries and in aqueducts to be made Water Management to be done from tail end to upstream. Regulation of water flow in Main canal & second level and tertiary off-take points Offtake operators to be outsourced in case of in-adequate staff for water management WUCS assisted with finance and administration. TLBC-Canal Operation improvements-long term CANAL: TLBC should be covered under GIS for maintenance of canal, providing information to farmers, for tax collection. Creation of Balancing Reservoir as per topography of ground to give assured water to tail end. Automation of Canal Network system(priority - Main Canal) Some of the users are constructing big size farm ponds along distributories. They are to be properly Planned & Regulated. The reaches of the canal which are passing near public places are to be provided with RCC Cut & Cover. Provide inlets in the hillock reaches of cannal along with catch water drain Security task force should be formed to give assured quantam of water to all stakeholders FOLLOW-UP ACTION 4

One single management centre for two projects instead of three (30,000 Ha). In Bennitora Project, one division and three sub-divisions are shifted to other projects thereby reducing the operation cost by 26% and one sub division from Gandorinala is shifted to other project thereby reducing the cost of operation by 30% COST ANALYSIS IN % COMMUNICATION 1% TRANSPORTATION 6% OTHERS 9% ADMINISTRATIVES EXPENCES 4% STAFF 80% 5
