Various operation strategies are followed in irrigation schemes in India. A supply-oriented operation strategy was introduced under the National Water Management Project (NWMP) in South India. A key feature of the NWMP is the development of an operation plan, which consists of water delivery schedules and operation rules and regulations. The new operation strategy requires the Irrigation Department to pay considerably more attention to planning, monitoring and evaluations of scheme operations. Critical to the success of the new operation strategy is the formulation of operation rules and regulations. It is realized that operation plans can only be developed gradually over time, as more and better data will become available. The first experiences with the new operation strategy are mixed. Soon it became clear that preparation of well fitted operation plans is extremely difficult. Lack of planning capabilities is a main factor. Furthermore, the absence of proper design procedures slowed down the re-design of the distributary system. However, the NWMP has achieved an awareness on the need for proper operation strategies as the basis for improved scheme operations.

The experiment was conducted at Mona Reclamation Experimental Project, Bhalwal during the Rabi seasons of 1989-90 to 1991-92 on wheat. The soil texture was loam with an average pH of 8.0 and ground water was of good quality. Two sites with watertable depths in the range of 0.5-1.0 m and 1.0-2.0 m from the ground surface, were selected for the experiment. Wheat was sown on 95 cm beds with four rows of crop and level basin as control. In case of bed planting, irrigation was applied when the available soil moisture in the top 30 cm soil in the middle of the bed was exhausted by 50%, 65% and 80%. Irrigation water was allowed to run in the intercepting ditches to a maximum capacity, ensuring that water did not flood the bed surface. One treatment (bed planting and level-basin) received irrigation purely by the farmer's discretion. Wheat planted on beds gave significantly higher yield than the traditional level-basin planting, especially at shallow watertable depth. The advantage of bed planting slightly eclipsed with farmer's irrigation practice but maintained yield dominance over level-basin. Irrigation indexed to 50% depletion of available soil moisture (ASM). Farmer's irrigation practice whether for level-basin or bed had not only higher water application but also lower crop yield. Crop exposure to excessive soil saturation during wet days was more in level-basin and low stressed bed planting, hence the plots receiving less water did not experience much adverse growing conditions and subsequently had a yield edge over treatments receiving higher irrigation delta.

The study was undertaken at two research sites on 0.4 hectare each of non-saline, non-sodic medium textured soils, each site with a different watertable depths of 0.5-1.0 m and 1.0-1.5 m respectively since Kharif 1989 and completed by Kharif 1992 with cotton-wheat crop rotation with following treatments: Three types of broad beds viz. 105 cm, 180 cm, 255 cm with two, three and four rows of plants respectively in case of cotton and 70 cm, 95 cm, 120 cm broad beds with three, four and five rows of plants respectively in case of wheat were tried. Three furrow configurations viz. FC-1 of 30 cm, 20 cm, 15 cm, FC-2 of 37.50 cm, 25 cm, 18.75 cm, FC-3 of 45 cm, 30 cm and 22.50 cm of top width, bottom width and depth for both the crops were tested. The experimental area was equally divided into 27 plots at each research site watertable depth and the different broad beds, along with furrow configurations, were randomly selected purposes. First and subsequent irrigations were applied at 40% and 50% soil moisture depletion in top 15 cm and 30 cm soil depths, respectively. Recommended cultural operations were carried out for both crops. Significantly higher seed cotton and wheat grain yields were obtained under both watertable depths from the treatment with 105 cm bed size with two rows and 120 cm bed size with five rows of plants respectively. This was followed by 180 cm and 255 cm with three and four and 95 cm and 70 cm bed sizes having four and three rows of cotton and wheat crops respectively. Wheat and cotton crop yields did not respond significantly to various furrow configurations. The data further revealed that the delta of water used by the crops increased with the widening of bed sizes. There was more pronounced groundwater contribution for both the crops under 0.5 to 1.0 m watertable depth as compared to 1.0-1.5 m.
