## Abstract During the Asian monsoon, water use is considered to be well integrated because of the sustainable use of the agricultural water supply. From the viewpoint of watershed management, paddy areas help regulate floods by serving as retarding basins (ponds), but they also ensure a rational s
## Abstract The importance of proper water management means that the consumption of irrigation water should be estimated even in areas where data are scarce. The Mekong River, particularly the lower part, is one area where irrigation water has received little research attention. Studies that seek t
## Abstract The Karkheh River Basin (KRB) is the third largest and most productive river basin of Iran. The major agricultural issue of the KRB is low water use efficiencies. Farmers' irrigation practices are aimed at maximizing crop production through excessive use of irrigation water resulting in
