1 Kundu, S. S.; Skogerboe, G. V. 1980. Field evaluation of methods for measuring basin irrigation performance. Fort Collins, CO, USA: Colorado State University. xviii, 118p. (Water management technical report no.59)
(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: 631.7.8 G000 KUN Record No: H0345)
A detailed description of field procedures employed to obtain necessary data for evaluating basin irrigation performances of several irrigation events is outlined. Two analytical techniques are described and used for calculating infiltrated water depths through station-areas delineated by a grid system within the basin. Both techniques require an infiltrometer test and infiltration opportunity time of each station-area during an irrigation event. A modified volume balance technique is described and is used to develop an infiltration equation which should represent the actual infiltration characteristics of the entire basin during an irrigation event. The infiltrated water depth of each station-area is also calculated by using the infiltration equation developed by this method. All three methods are used for measuring basin irrigation performance and their applicability for measuring performance parameters is compared.

A guide for the investigation, development, and management of groundwater resources. This manual has been prepared as a guide to field personnel in the more practical aspects and commonly encountered problems of groundwater investigations, development and management. Information is presented concerning such aspects as groundwater occurrence and flow, well- aquifer relationships, groundwater investigations, aquifer test analysis, estimating aquifer yield, data collection, and geophysical investigations. In addition, permeability tests, well design, dewatering systems, well specifications and drilling, well sterilization, pumps, and other aspects have been discussed. An extensive bibliography is also included.

The paper draws on the experience of the authors in applying farm- level data collection methods to analyze alternative techniques for improving farm-level irrigation systems in Egypt. It recognizes that data must be collected with a specific end in view and the procedures must be guided by the anticipated use or purpose of the data for the conduct of analyses of technical assistance alternatives. The data collection procedures must recognize the characteristics of the farmer population and the farming system in which they operate. The paper focuses on the data useful for economists to evaluate and understand the farm economic situation and to perform the financial and economic evaluations of alternatives to improve the irrigation system.

This report discusses the findings of a study which evaluated the impact of a participatory approach of the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) for assisting farmer-managed, or communal irrigation systems. The evaluation was done through a comparison of two types of NIA-assisted communal projects - those which NIA developed through its participatory intervention method, hence named participatory projects; and those which NIA assisted through its traditional approach, thus called nonparticipatory projects. The study covered 24 participatory projects and 22 nonparticipatory projects, or a total of 46 projects located in five service regions in NIA.
