The paper describes scientific management of irrigation for the seedbed, land preparation, and growth periods of lowland rice. The land preparation period is found critical for canal design, and appropriate formulas are discussed relating the area to be prepared with the duration of the period and available water supply. Water management for the crop after transplanting is also defined through formulas. Experience from Taiwan is used to estimate rotation intervals under conditions of variable soils, sources of water, and seasons.

The importance of managing water once it arrives at the farm site is the central issue in this report. The study limits its focus to the technical side of on-farm water management.

The reclamation of salt-affected lands in the northern Nile Delta has been less than successful. Previous reports in this series have reported earlier work to identify the cause of the failure and have described the present experiment aimed at finding a solution to the insufficient leaching by improving the drainage. This report describes the last stage of the project, the trials of 5 different field-drainage methods and comparison with the existing open-ditch system of drainage. The methods were Tile-pipe drains, Fabric- wrapped gravel-tube drains (FWGT-drains), Shallow ditches, Well-points and Mole-drains. Of these, Tile-pipe drains were found to be the most effective with the FWGT-drains performing almost as well. The existing method of open ditches was found to make no improvement at all to the salt distribution in the soil profile. The other major finding of this study was that even the most effective drainage method (viz. tiles) did not sufficiently improve potential gradients in the soil so that the required rate of leaching could be provided.
