Résumé :
|
The effective and sustainable management of water for agriculture is becoming ever more important to satisfy future demands in food production. The efficiency of water use is agriculture is low; poor management and inadequate design are the main causes of high water losses which result in low yields, reduced irrigated areas and environmental problems. Irrigation scheduling is essential to conserve water, to improve irrigation performance and to achieve sustainability of irrigated agriculture. A substantial part of irrigation research has been devoted to the development of a range of tools and techniques in irrigation scheduling. Nevertheless, the application of these tools and techniques in practice has been well behind expectation. The ICID/FAO Workshop on irrigation Scheduling was organized specifically to identify the constraints on the application of available water-saving techniques and to identify solutions that will lead to improved irrigation management in practice.
