During the last decades traditional surface irrigation systems in irrigated agriculture of arid zones have been improved in order to optimize labor requirements, quality and economy of water distribution. On-farm water storage tanks, reuse systems, the surge flow concept and intermittent level basin irrigation for large scale cropping other than rice are described. The efforts to mechanize and automate water applications resulted in improved siphon tubes, gates, weirs and completely new hardware like the "cablegation" system. Most useful are modern technical means such as laser-levelling equipment and various programs for microcomputers.
