conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:08 authored by V. Jothiprakash, S. Mohan, K. KuppusamyAn optimization model has been formulated to maximize the net benefit from a tank command with conjunctive use of
surface water from the tank and ground water from wells and community well in the tank area. The Kannangudi tank in
Pudukkottai district, Tamil Nadu, India has been taken as the case study. Six crops were found in the command area and
are considered for arriving the optimal cropping pattern. The study result shows that, the wells and community well in a
tank command contributes to a sustainable irrigation and apparently maximize the net benefit from that tank command.
