Experiments conducted for several cropping seasons on the montmorillonitic Maahas clay soil at the IRRI farm demonstrate that continual flooding is not essential for high grain yield but flooded rice can tolerate at least 15cmif the improved varieties are grown. Tall varieties like H-4 has less adaptability under wide range of water management conditions than semidwarfs like IR8. With adequate water supply, 5 to 7 cm of water is desirable on most soils for best weed and insect control with granular chemicals, forhigh nutrient availability, and for minimum losses of nutrients from fertilizer and soil. If rainfall does not provide supplemental water, irrigation intervalslonger than 8 days reduce grain yield under a rotational irrigation system. Varieties like IR5 that have a long growth duration were least sensitive to moisture stress imposed by long irrigation intervals. This is because IR5 will generally recover from high moisture stress for a short period or low moisture stress for a long period. An experiment with IR20 indicates that the furrow irrigation of nonpuddled soil does not provide more efficient water use in rice compared with rice grown on puddled lowland soil.

A study of three of the farms of El-Hammami area in El- Mansuriya region, Giza Governorate, was carried out to evaluate the irrigation of sandy soils. The on-farm irrigation practices in the area indicated that the farmers at the beginning of the canal apply more water than those at the end of the canal. The irrigation application efficiency of the farmers at the tail end of the canal was greater than that of the farmers at the beginning. The data also indicated that subsurface irrigation due to seepage from neighboring fields contributed substantially to crop water use. The study showed that surface irrigation might not be the best way to irrigate these sandy soils.
