Multiobjective Simulation–Optimization of Crop Allocation and Water Resources in Canal Command Areas Using Genetic Algorithms

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops an integrated simulation–optimization framework for sustainable crop allocation and water resource management in the Bargarh Canal Command (BCC), eastern India. Efficient irrigation allocation remains a critical challenge due to competing demands, groundwater–surface water interactions and environmental constraints ...

Drivers and Challenges of Micro‐Irrigation Adoption and Intensity in India: A Study of Four States

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT India's food security relies substantially on groundwater, but inefficient irrigation is seriously depleting this resource. Micro‐irrigation (MI) improves irrigation application efficiency and productivity, yet adoption remains low. This study examines MI adoption across four major Indian states—Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and ...

A Holistic Assessment of Water Footprint and Irrigation Performance Indicators With Respect to Agricultural Water Productivity

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified prolonged droughts in many regions, including Türkiye, resulting in growing pressure on already limited water resources. Agriculture, as the largest water‐consuming sector, faces critical challenges in sustaining productivity under increasing water scarcity. In this context, assessing water use efficiency through

A Coupled AquaCrop–Richards Model for Improved Crop Yield Prediction Through Physically Based Soil Water Dynamics

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

Evapotranspiration Estimation and Irrigation Performance Assessment Using Remote Sensing: A Case Study of the Ergani Dam Irrigation System (Turkey)

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient water resource management is critical for sustainable agriculture, with evapotranspiration (ET) serving as a key parameter. Remote sensing (RS) techniques offer cost‐effective approaches for ET estimation and irrigation performance assessment in extensive agricultural systems.
