Waterlogging and secondary salinization have become a serious problem in the canal irrigated areas of arid and semi–arid regions worldwide. In this study, a unique and simple technique was evolved in which a linear programming (LP) optimization model was first developed that allocates...

Direct measurement of groundwater recharge is nearly impossible. So there are various direct and indirect methods and sophisticated models have been used for its estimation. However, the use of multiple approaches has been recommended to estimate the groundwater recharge since each individual...

Irrigated agriculture faces serious threats of waterlogging and soil salinisation in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. To evaluate different options to solve the problem, the computer based simulation model, SaltMod was applied in a waterlogged area of Haryana State in India. After...

Poor quality groundwater can be used conjunctively with good quality canal water to fulfil crop water demand and maximize net annual returns particularly, in the arid and semi-arid regions where good quality soil and water resources are limited. A linear programming model was developed for the...
