Extractions: Agricultural production in sub-Saharan Africa relies mainly on rain-fed systems. In the semiarid and dry subhumid regions of Africa, these systems are neither sustainable nor profitable. Areas of monocultures of grains and legumes exhibit severe land degradation, mostly as a result of water and wind erosion. Crop yields are very small, the commercial value of the common grains (millet and sorghum) is very low, and revenue is thus meager. On average, crop failures occur in two out of five years as a result of droughts. The final outcome of these processes is severe poverty.

If basic meteorological data are not available, potential evaporation or reference evaporation can be input. Precipitation may be provided either at a daily basis or at actual intensities. Short-term rainfall data allow the calculation of runoff and preferential flow.

Extractions: Regional Research Station, Bajaura Provision of irrigation, soil and water conservation and watershed development are necessary for sustainable agriculture. To save and conserve soil and water are to save life on earth. Therefore, to promote ecological and sustainable farming, provision of cheap water harvesting and storage tanks for irrigation, check dams, earthen cum stone field bounds and boundaries, conversion of outwardly slopping terraces or fields into inwards slopping fields, fuel-fodder grasses, tree plantations and afforestation for soil and water conservation on watershed basis have beeb taken up and continued on a large scale. Irrigation is the most important factor and input for the development of sustainable agriculture system, as it increases the efficiency of all other inputs too. Therefore, all sources of irrigation like rivers, streams, nullahas, springs, rainwater, etc. should be fully tapped, harvested and developed. Once irrigation becomes available, it is necessary to make changes in cropping patterns, cropping systems and cropping intensity by including more remunerative high value crops and the IIHFS. To increase the efficiency of irrigation, more efficient methods like sprinkler and drip irrigation must be used.
Extractions: B. Itier, INRA The purpose of this paper is to review irrigation scheduling methods using information given in the different papers presented to this FAO workshop. It will not only be a simple report of these papers, but it will contain part of the personal experience and opinion of the authors. It will not present methods and techniques in detail but will focus on the main subject of Theme 1, 'Applicability and limitations'. The objectives of irrigation management are well stated in Huygen et al. (1995): 'Maximize net return... minimize irrigation costs, maximize yield, optimally distribute a limited water supply, minimize groundwater pollution...'. To reach these goals, it is necessary to schedule irrigation accordingly, in other words, to decide 'which fields to irrigate, when and how much' (Hess, 1996), keeping in mind that overirrigation can have negative effects on quantitative and qualitative yield (Deumier et al.

Extractions: Missouri is a "pond state" with over 300,000 privately owned ponds and lakes. These ponds provide a source of water for humans, livestock, crops and fish. For these reasons most pond owners should be concerned about the amount of water maintained in their pond. Throughout the course of a year, a pond's water level (even those without a leak) will drop because of evaporation, seepage, and withdrawals for household use, livestock watering and irrigation. Evaporation is surface water lost to the atmosphere. In a dry year rainfall may not replace the amount of water evaporating from the pond's surface. Seepage is water lost through the soil. Well constructed ponds with good soil may lose one inch of water per month to seepage. The most recognizable signs of a leaking pond are rapid water level decreases or the water falling below the level expected with normal use. Wet spots and aquatic vegetation (like cattails) below the dam may be good indicators of seepage through the dam or around the drain pipe and may help determine the location of the leak. Why do Ponds Leak?

Extractions: Models have evolved since the turn of the century. There are models for most any item or system that exists. Developments in mathematics have enabled the world of models to explode. Now most everything can be modeled using some sort of mathematics. Agriculture is field that must rely on predictions. The Farmers Almanac is a source of information that allows one to predict upcoming events. The data in the Almanac is used to model events, especially hydrologic events that can occur in the future. The models that are created today are complex and involve numerous computations that only a computer can do. These models are used in a wide variety of tasks. Models have long been a vision to people, now they are a reality, and have been used to create systems that produce cost-efficient and effective answers to everyday problems. As with life, models come with restraints. These constraints must be weight to see the proper give and take ratio to ascertain a compatible model. There are numerous restraints exist among modeling. The obvious is the budget of the project. The more money available, the precision of the model increases. The use of complex mathematical relationships with multiple iterations leads to the need of vast amounts of computer time. The trade off is the computer time and cost is marginal compared the salary of an individual that is capable to do these mathematical computations. Educated personnel with extensive knowledge and understanding of the model are necessary to determine if the data created makes sense. Finally a model is of no use if there is not real world data to simulate. Simulation of this data checks the validity of the model and aids in its marketability (Johnson 1973).
