Assessment of environmental and economic impacts of trickle irrigation system

Abstract The systems of trickle irrigation offer the potential influential to increase crop yields and have been proven reasonable according engineering agricultural opinion particularly in barren areas. Trickle that offered comparatively lately Arab countries demonstrated save huge amounts water enhance yield. computational program (Trickle Irrigation System Design, TISD) connected with economic procedures were used research environmental conditions agriculture system. environment comprised type soil, topography land, climate areas, quantum quality, dimensions land. included interest rates nominal real, principal price labor energy escalation. deemed ratio B/C indicating effects parameters applying system irrigation. presented rotation tomato-sesame as a line-source, point-source was represented by citrus trees. results revealed significant impact on for parameters; soil type, land topography, quality. other evidenced variety impacts among considerable, small, negligible ratio. study represents worthy perception institutional considerations economics.
