Irrigation: System and pump selection
This book has two parts. Part 1 will help you choose the irrigation system that is right for you, and Part 2 will help you select, operate and maintain your pumping equipment. Part 1 If you are installing or upgrading an irrigation system you will probably be seeking to increase production, decrease the amount of water used or reduce labour required. Part one of this book is about selecting the irrigation system that is best for your enterprise. It is an overview of: · the most widely used irrigation methods in NSW · the capabilities and limitations of the most widely used irrigation methods in NSW · the major issues to consider when selecting an irrigation system · the basic financial a...
Sulzer Centrifugal Pump Handbook
The Sulzer Centrifugal Pump Handbook takes full account of the progress that has recently been made in pump construction. All the experience gained by CCM-Sulzer and others in pump construction and pump behaviour in systems has been assembled and related to various fields of application. Production areas such as cavitation, erosion, selection of materials, rotor vibration behaviour, forces acting on pumps, operating performance in various types of circuitry, drives and acceptance testing are dealt with in detail. The Handbook is an excellent reference work by one of the world's foremost pump manufacturers. It presents the current state-of-the-art in pump construction and is directed to planners and operating companies alike.
Irrigation Sector in Sri Lanka
Increasing the area under irrigation and the widespread adoption of seed-fertilizer technology were the major factors that contributed to enhanced rice production in Sri Lanka, enabling the country to achieve self-sufficiency in rice. In recent years, there has been a shift in emphasis from expanding the irrigated land base to enhancing the productivity of irrigated land through diversification of agriculture and improvement of rice production, with better water management in irrigation schemes. This report attempts to assess how the irrigation sector in Sri Lanka is adapting itself to these new challenges. It analyzes the future direction of irrigation in Sri Lanka in light of recent trends in public and private investment in this sphere, and the revolution in groundwater development brought about by the poor performance and gradual deterioration of existing irrigation schemes.
Solarisation of Agricultural Water Pumps in Western India
This book is outcome of the research report on “Solarisation of Agricultural Water Pumps in Western India”. The book is structured in five chapters highlighting important issues related to large scale adoption of solar irrigation pumps, its economic feasibility and problems in adoption of same in the states of Gujarat and Rajasthan. The book provides useful insights to understand the socio-economic profile of adopter households and constraints faced by them. This book would be helpful to adopt the suitable measures and policies for better and speedy adoption of solar pump and thus help in increasing income of the farmers.

Groundwater Governance and Adoption of Solar-Powered Irrigation Pumps
Solar-powered irrigation pumps (SPIPs) have been promoted in the Eastern Gangetic Plains (EGP) in recent decades, but rates of adoption are low. This case study assesses the evidence from several solar pump business models being adopted in parts of the EGP, particularly eastern Nepal and northern India, and explores how different models perform in various contexts. It documents lessons for increasing farmers' resilience to droughts through better groundwater use by promotion of SPIPs. Groundwater access for agriculture in the past was dependent on diesel and electric pumps, respectively constrained by costs and reliability of energy. Both government and nongovernment agencies have promoted S...
