Modernization of irrigation systems results in waterflow path changes within the system. The planning process for modernization of an irrigation system requires careful documentation and analysis of the pre-project (without-project) condition and quantified prediction of the effects of the planned improvement (with-project). Procedures and strategies for predicting, monitoring and quantifying Targeted Flow Path Changes caused by an irrigation system modernization project for both without- and with-project conditions are presented.born digitalCD-ROMsproceedings (reports)engCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
