Programme prospectus
As farmers in the developing
world move towards market production, they will be increasingly interested in
applying more efficient irrigation methods, such as sprinkler irrigation,
various forms of micro-irrigation, subsurface irrigation and centre pivot
irrigation. These methods demand relatively high investments and therefore
advice is necessary to help farmers decide on the most appropriate method of
irrigation. This lecture deals with modern irrigation techniques, their
technical features and their field of application in developing
countries.
