TWOMARKS OUESTIONS AI\D AI\SWERS 1, What ar? the types of irrigation?
Flow irri8ation
Lift
irigation (Well inigation)
Class
Perennial irrigation
lnundation iirigation
Source Storage irrigation
Direct irrigation (Diversion scheme) 2.
(Storage scheme)
Combined storage and
diversion scheme
what do you mean by flow irrigation? Flow irrigation is the type of irrigation in which the supply of irrigation water available is at such
a level that it is conveyed on to the land bythe gravity flow. 3. Define
lift irrigation.
Lift irrigation is practiced when the water supply is at too low a level to run by gravity on to the land. ln such a circumstances water is lifted up by mechanical means. 4. Define perennial irrigation
ln this perennial irrigation system, the water required for irrigation is supplied in accordance with the crop requirements throughout the crop period. s' Define
inundatH:::: carried out by deep flooding and thoroush saturation of the tand to be
cultivated, which
is
then drained off prior to the planting of the crop.
6. Define direct irrigation.
In this system, water is directly diverted to the canal without attempting to stole the water. For such a system, a low diversion weir or diversion barrage is constructed across the river.
storage irrigation? 7. What do you meant by across the river and or storage weir is constructed a solid barrier' such as a dam ln this system,
lake so formed' water is stored in the reservoir or 8, Define Gombined irrigation'
lnthissystem,thewaterisfirststoredinthereservoirformedattheupstreamsideofthedam, back in to the from the powerhouse is fed discharge The generation. power and this water is used for in the river' quantity of flow is again available of the dam. Thus, sufficient side downstream to the river, of method of 9. What are the different classifiGations

4.

lil.
What do you mean by free flooding?
ln free flooding method, the field is divided into a number of small sized plots which are praaically level. Water is admitted to these plots at the higher end and the supply is cut off as soon as the lower part of the plot has received the sufficient depth of water. 13. Urhere contour laterals are applicable?
Contour laterals are applicable for steeper terrain. The field is cut by relatively dense network of small counter laterals, the spacifrg of which depends upon the prominent grade of the field between
two adjacent ditches or laterals, the uniformity of slope and the soil type. 14. Write about the advantages of
1.
furrow irrlgation.
ln the furrow irrigation, water contacts on ly .
!/5 lo
%
of
the land surface, thereby reducing
pudding and crusting of the soil. Evaporation losses are also reduced.
2. lt is specially suitable for those crops (like maize) they are injured by contact with water. 3. Labour requirements in land preparation and irrigation are very much reduced. 4. There is no wastage of land in field ditches. 15. Under which favourable conditions the sub-surface irrigation is practiced? 1. lmpervious sub-soil at reasonable depth (2 to 3 m) or higher water table.
2. Permanent soil such as loam or sandy loam in the root zone of the soil. 3. Uniformtopographicconditions. 4, Moderate slopes. 5. Good quality irrigation water. 16. Where sprinkler irrigation
is more useful?
1. 2. 3.
The land cannot be prepared for surface methods.
4. 5.
Soil is erosive.
Slopes are excessive
Topography is irregular.
Soil is excessively permeable or impermeable.
17. Write about the advantages of sprinkler
1, 2. 3.
irrigation'
Erosion can be controlled.
Uniform application for water is possible.
lrrigation is better controlled; light irrigation is possible for seedlings and plants, which are young.
4.
Land preparation is not required.
5.
Crop damage from frost can be reduced.
