A reliable and equitable water supply to the tertiary units is a necessity for efficient and economic utilization of waters in major irrigation projects. The management of water through prevailing upstream control has major limitations. Downstream control is, no doubt efficient, but requires heavy investments and restructuring of canal systems. The solution therefore lies in centering operational management on the constant volume concept. This concept requires marginal improvements in canals and comparatively less capital investments and could be converted in downstream control, when the environment becomes suitable. Another advantage is that the concept can be introduced in phases. With this approach, water can be released simultaneously to head and tail reaches, response time is reduced, water is stored and conserved when not needed, water can be delivered to various sub-commands in any desired frequency and damages to canal linings are minimized. The system would need centralized control, a quick communication system and preferably organized farmers groups, for reducing supply points. Even though the control is centralized for the main system management, the irrigators have the most flexibility as they can select the flow rates and duration of each irrigation. The system is thus user-oriented with arranged demand, without infringing the central control operations.
