What is Irrigation Efficiency? The amount of supplied water is not fully utilised for the growth of crops because there are several reasons for water loss. Irrigation efficiency is defined as the ratio of the amount of water available to the amount of water supplied from the reservoir. It is expressed in percentage. Different Types …
Empirical Formula Used For Determination of Runoff The following empirical formulas or equations are generally used for estimating the runoff from a catchment: 1. Dicken’s Formula Q = C × A3/4 Where, Q = Runoff in cumec. C = a coefficient varies from 11.5 to 25. A = Catchment area in sq.km. 2. Ryve’s Formula …
