    The lower the irrigation efficiency, the higher the losses. Although reasonably high irrigation efficiencies of 70% or more (i.e., losses of 30% or less) can occur with sophisticated techniques like sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation or by well-managed surface irrigation, in practice the losses are commonly in the order of 40% to 60% ...

    The old Sardar canal project in the state of Gujarat, India, was designed with an irrigation intensity of 32%, but at the upstream part the delivery was at an intensity of 42% (i.e. 131% of the design norm) and at the downstream end it was only 19% (i.e. 59% of the norm), although the project aimed at protective irrigation with equal rights for ...

    Inf = Irr + Wel, where Irr = surface irrigation from the canal system, and Wel = the irrigation from wells; The field irrigation efficiency (Ff < 1) is: Ff = Era / Inf, where Era = the evapotranspiration of the crop (consumptive use) The value of Era is less than Inf, there is an excess of irrigation that percolates down to the subsoil (Per):
