## Abstract The irrigated arid and semiβarid zones in India face twin problems of overall water scarcity and waterlogging accompanied by salinity. Subsurface drainage has proved successful in the rehabilitation and conservation of waterlogged saline soils. Drainage water from subsurface drainage sy

## ABSTRACT In waterβscarcity areas fresh water is allocated with priority to urban areas and agriculture, and ecosystem function benefits are obtained from marginal quality water. Meanwhile the scientific use of saline water needs to quantify the effect of quality and quantity of water on plant gr
## Abstract Food and fodder shortage in arid and semiβarid regions force farmers to use marginal quality water for meeting the water requirement of crops which result in low quality, reduced production and an adverse impact on soil properties. A field study on loamyβsand (Hyperthermic Typic Ustipsa
## Abstract The aim of this paper is develop a nonlinear optimisation model for the determination of the optimised water allocation and cropping pattern under adequate and limited water supplies. The water productivity index defined as the net profit to the volume of water used was considered as th
Changes in the hydrologic balance in many irrigation areas, including those in the Murray Basin, Australia, have resulted in high watertables and salinity problems. However, where suitable aquifers exist, groundwater pumping and subsequent irrigation application after mixing with surface waters (ref
