This collection contains 34 papers on planning, operation, rehabilitation, and automation of irrigation water delivery systems. Papers respond to the need for water delivery flexibility to maximize on-farm yield and for water conservation through more effective on-farm use. Papers discuss how to upgrade, rehabilitate, or automate water delivery systems so that they can respond to changes in demand patterns, provide water users with reliable and flexible water supplies, be managed to achieve maximum firm water yield, and continue to be able to meet present and future demands.
