Preliminary Research on Water Saving Effects of Optimizing Irrigation Water Allocation in Irrigation Areas

Zhou Zu

Abstract

With a reservoir irrigation district as example, the water saving effects of two models of optimizing irrigation water allocation are analyzed and discussed in this paper. It is thrown that water loss is reduced and water use efficiency improved with optimal irrigation water management. Optimal irrigation water allocation in irrigation areas is an effective way of alleviating agricultural water resources crisis in China.
