Dutch Irrigation Engineers and Their (Post-) Colonial Irrigation Networks

2018
This chapter traces the career steps and decisions of Dutch irrigation engineer De Gruyter between 1920 and 1961 to discuss how the Dutch irrigation engineering network managed to emerge and continue by defining what its members considered ‘good practice’. Irrigation education in Delft permitted entrance to working practice.

ENGINEERING A SAP FLOW SENSOR FOR IRRIGATORS

Acta Horticulturae, 2013
Sap flow sensors designed for irrigators – as distinct from scientific researchers – must be inexpensive and robust, simple to install and interpret, and able to advise a grower when the crop is becoming water stressed. Modern growers also expect data to be delivered to them wherever they may be and whenever they want it, which impacts directly on the ...

Engineering and Biological Approaches for Drainage of Irrigated Lands

2019
Irrigated agriculture, contributing two-fifths of global agricultural production from one-fifth cropped area, is under stress due to associated waterlogging and soil salinity problems. Current annual crop productivity losses due to irrigation-induced salinity are estimated at US$ 27 billion for the world and US$ 1.2 billion for India.

A rubber heat engine for ground water irrigation in India

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1989
Abstract Rubber heat engines are typically high torque-low revolutions per minute (r/min) devices which derive their power from the small temperature differences that exist between hot dry air or solar-heated water and the cooler well water that is to be pumped.
