Given the following data:

Soil porosity ---------------------------50%


Residual moisture content ---------------17% dry mass basis
Apparent specific gravity ---------------1.1
Rootzone depth --------------------------300 mm
Evaporation -----------------------------3 mm/day
Seepage and Percolation -----------------2 mm/day
Duration of land soaking ----------------7 days
Effective rainfall ----------------------2 mm/day
Application efficiency ------------------70 %
Conveyance efficiency -------------------80%
Duration of land preparation –-----------4 weeks
Assume a standing water depth of --------2.5 cm

a.) Calculate the diversion water requirement during land


preparation.
b.) Calculate the irrigable area in if the dependable flow
is 3 m3/s.
Ans.
LSR = 13.41 mm/day
LPWR = 19.3 mm/day
FIR = 17.3 mm/day or 2.0 lps/ha
FWR = 2.86 lps/ha
DWR = 3.6 lps/ha
IA = 833 ha @3.6 lps/ha DWR
