Half of the world food production originates from irrigated and drained soils. However, the future management of these systems must accept the paradigm shift away from managing abundant water supplies (with focus on conveyance and distribution) and toward the beneficial use of scarce water resources with the emphasis on deficit irrigation, sustainable groundwater exploitation and optimized crop water productivity. Mechanistic computer models – together with economic and social decision rules – have a key role to play in supporting water allocation decisions. Unfortunately, computer models for prediction and better understanding of unsaturated soil water flow processes have low operational focus, especially in many irrigation countries where they are most... |
