Tank irrigation systems are very common in South India, accounting for about one-third of the irrigated area. Most of these tanks are about 100 years old and the performance is not satisfactory due to poor operation and maintenance. Many of the tanks were neglected and lost much of their original storage capacity due to encroachment, siltation and inadequate maintenance. To study the management of tank irrigation systems and to identify investment opportunities, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University and the University of Minnesota have been analyzing ten tanks in Ramanathapuram district of Tamil Nadu. Farmers depended heavily on the groundwater for supplementing tank water supplies. About one-third of their water supplies came from wells. Most of the farmers served by tanks grow only one paddy crop. Farmers with inadequate water supplies adopted a network of strategies ranging from heavy fertilizer applications to a 4 to 7 day irrigation rotation to save their crops. This study identifies a number of key tank characteristics that effect crops. These characteristics were related to the inadequate tank water supplies and the poor distribution of available supplies.
