Sustainable water management in smallholder farming: theory and practice
This book with 12 chapters provides an introduction to the theoretical foundations of agricultural water management, and presents a range of basic techniques for promoting efficient water use on farms. Subjects covered include crop water requirements, soil and water conservation, rainwater harvesting, conservation agriculture, supplementary irrigation, and more. The book provides a practical, as opposed to an academic, approach; it is hoped that farmers' groups, extension agents, students and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can use it as a starting point for continued study. The methods presented in this book are most applicable to agricultural projects that fall into the 'smallholder' category - that is, small farms with little or no mechanization.
