Course Goal / Objective

Primary objective of the course is to teach students fundamentals of engineering activities in order to establish optimal water and salt balance for agricultural production in irrigated agriculture and managing water table for drainage purposes.

Course Content

Definition of drainage and historical develeopments (Introductory subjects). Principles of water and salt balance, and soil-crop-water relations in irrigated agriculture regarding agricultural drainage. Drainage investigations: preparatory studies (data acquisition from archieved files), field works for data collection, assing collected data in the office. Drainage systems: surface and subsurface drainage systems. Planning and design of drainage sytems. Monitoring and evalutaion of groundwater observations. Operation, repairs and maintenance of drainage schemes, drainage machines.
