Description

IRRIGATION SYSTEMS DESIGN AND ENGINEERING IS A COMPREHENSIVE COURSE  ON IRRIGATION.THIS COURSE TEACHES YOU ON:1. Definition of Irrigation2. The Need For Irrigation.3. Types of Irrigation Systems.4. Limitiations in the Current Types of Irrigation Systems5. Innovations in Modern Irrigation Systems to Offset Limitations6. Basic Requirements for an Irrigation System 7. Planning for Irrigation   - The Type of Irrigation Best Suitable for Different Crops   - Knowing the Cost of the Irrigation System Best Suited for Your Land Prior to Purchase   - Planning for the Physicial Installation of Your Irrigation System Prior to Purchase   - Size and Number of Irrigation Blocks For Each Farmland (1 Irrigaiton Block is 20 m by 20 m)   - Installation of Purchased Irrigation System    - Maintenance of Your Installed System 8. Installation of Irrigation Systems   - Land Assessment   - Design of Irrigation Pipeline Network   - Design and Placement of Irrigation Components and Subsystems on the Land (Monitoring and Control          Units and Characterization).9. Stages of Crop Growth attained Using Irrigation Systems 10. Irrigation Moisture Requirements for Different Food Crops During their Cultivation (From Germination to          Harvest - Month by Month). 11.  Factors Affecting Irrigation Moisture Requirements.    A. The Type of Crop Being Cultivated.    B. The Species of the Crop.    C. The Location/Country in Which the Crop is Being Cultivated    D. The Season in Which the Crop is Being Cultivated (E.g. Summer or Spring)    E. The Amount of Available Natural Rainfall Per Month for the  Duration of the Life Cycle of the Cultivated          Crop.12. BENEFITS OF IRRIGATION   A. Exoected Increase in Harvest Quantity abd Quality   B. Expected Increase in Harvest Income and ProfitsREQUIREMENTS TO TAKE THE COURSE1.
