Irrigation and Drainage, the ICID journal, publishes research and application in practice on scientific, engineering, environmental, and socio-economic issues associated with irrigation, drainage, and flood management.

ARS has drawn up a plan of action to guide research on irrigation and drainage. Forming the core of the plan are environmental and economic issues. The pages that follow offer a sketch of each of the nine problem areas, the national research goals, and the hoped-for long-term effects.

Our papers cover the application of technology and management to provide water and drain excess water, prevent salinisation and water-logging, protect land from flooding, and maximize water usage by appropriate allocation, conservation, drainage and reuse.

2025年1月29日 · Irrigation, in agriculture, the artificial application of water to land. Some land requires irrigation before it can be used for any agricultural production. In other places, irrigation is primarily a means to supplement rainfall and serves to increase production.

Irrigation and Drainage is the official journal of the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID). The objectives of the ICID are to advance the science and art of irrigation, drainage and flood management.

Drainage is employed in the reclamation of wetlands and as a concomitant of irrigation in the agriculture of arid regions. Drainage can remove excess water from an area before it enters the soil and thus prevents erosion and leaching of nutrients.

The design of irrigation, pumping, and drainage systems using Excel and Visual Basic for Applications programs are explained for both graduate and undergraduate students and practicing engineers. The book emphasizes environmental protection, …
