Vinod Sharma , R.N. Agarwal., “Planning Irrigation Networking and OFD Works”

Planning of an Irrigation project, particularly mega projects like IGNP.

Sardar Sarover requires prime importance. Such projects are meant for

hundreds of years to come. The impact of such projects on environment,

economic, social, institutional on the area covered is drastic and in short

span of implementation there would be a sea change in life style of the

inhabitants.

We, the Irrigation engineers owe particular responsibilities towards

the nation, to bring maximum area under irrigation. The lands are limited

and cultivable area has almost reached a plateau. So to feed the increasing

population with limited lands, sustainable irrigation is a must.

Any ill planning may create havoc. Where as proper long term

based planning may be sustainable and keep the area blooming for the

times to come.

This small book is the out come of the problems faced by the authors

during their working in the field in various capacities, as well as difficulty

faced by farmers. Department find it in dilemma, when farmer brought

their genuine demand for commanding of their lands by canal system.

Authors feel perturbed, why farmers and nation should suffer for the

lapses in planning in canal network, OFD works by the department. In

IGNP some six lacs ha area which could have been covered by flow

canals has been left out. This is attributed to non-existence of any survey,

planning policy, Execution of canal system, and on farm development

(OFD) works uncoordinated.

This has prompted the authors to bring out some book on Survey and

Planning, Canal network and OFD works. The aim is not fault finding but

to stress that Survey and Planning are the keys for the optimum use of

national resources and sustainable irrigation. Hitherto Survey and Planning

is totally neglected.

Authors are greatly indebted for inspiration received from our fellow

Engineers in IGNP, CAD & WAPCOS.

The authors greatfully acknowledge the help taken from many standard

works on irrigation, studies and other national and international publications.

We wish to express our sincere thanks to M/s New Age International

(P) LTD Publishers particularly Saumya Gupta for having expressed his

confidence in publishing this book.

The authors would feel gratified to receive comments from our fellow

practicing engineers for whom this book is meant as a reference book.
