Irrigated agriculture makes a major contribution to food security in the world. It uses more than 60%–70% of the water withdrawn from the world’s water resources. The irrigated area at a global level represents around 20% of the total agricultural land and contributes 40% of the total food production. However, the performance of the majority of existing irrigation sys- tems remains low. With increasing competition from other sectors, irrigation is under pressure to reduce its share of water use. The available world’s water resources may not be able to meet various demands that will inevitably result in the irrigation of additional lands in order to achieve a sustain- able food security. Due to the scarce water supply in the arid and semiarid climates, maximizing water use efficiency is critical. A shift from surface irrigation to high-tech irrigation technologies, e.g., sprinkle and drip irrigation systems, may yield significant water savings. Also, in lands where irrigation is introduced as a new practice, and in lands that currently irrigate, there must be irriga- tion method choices. Alternative irrigation methods may become more advantageous as the land organization, objectives, price, and cost change. The selection of irrigation methods will often be influenced by costs, energy, crop, soil texture, land topography, water supply, climate parameters, labor availability, etc. In other words, irrigation application method and system selection should result in optimum use of available water. The selection should be based on a full awareness of management considerations, such as water source and cost, water quantity and quality, irrigation effects on the environment, energy availability and cost, farm equipment, product marketability, and capital for irrigation system installation, operation, and maintenance. The purpose of this book is to bring together and integrate in a single text the subject matter that deals with the irrigation selection methods in arid and semiarid regions. The book is divided into four major sections dealing with the subject mentioned above and is intended for students, researchers, and professionals work- ing on various aspects of irrigation method selection. Each section is composed of some chapters from various research groups and individuals working separately. Various case studies have been discussed in the chapters to present a general scenario of irrigation method selection management. The first section highlights the parametric evaluation system for irrigation purposes. The para- metric approach in the evaluation of land characteristics consists of a numeral rating of the different limitation levels of the land characteristics in a numerical scale from a maximum (normally 100) to a minimum value. If a land characteristic is optimal for the considered land utilization type, the maximum rating of 100 is attributed; if the same land characteristic is unfavorable, a minimal rating is applied. The aim of the parametric evaluation system is to provide a method that permits evalua- tion for irrigation purposes and that is based on the standard granulometrical and physicochemical characteristics of a soil profile. The section concludes with a review of the analytical hierarchy pro- cess integrated with GIS in an arid region for site selection of different irrigation systems. ix
