As the first book to take this lifecycle approach to agricultural irrigation, it includes real-world examples not only on natural resource availability concerns, but also on financial impacts and measurements. With 21 chapters divided into two sections, this book is a valuable resource for agricultural and hydrology engineers, conservation scientists and anyone seeking to implement and maintain irrigation systems UR - http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780128117484 UR - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780128117484 ER -
