Abstract

Many irrigation projects had been constructed in India put up-Independence length spending hug resources.
However, there's a gap between irrigation Potential created (IPC) and irrigation Potential Utilized (IPU). This file
argues that the reasons lie in problems of postpone in creation of distribution networks, more diversion of water
for home or commercial water deliver, miscalculations, design troubles, bad renovation of irrigation structures,
trouble of water tax series and power interruption, non-availability of required infrastructure, violation of cropping
sample, seepage losses, unequal distribution of water, insufficient resources to enhance irrigation performance.
This file shows that the periodical reassessment of the IPC & advent of proper distribution system avoids seepage
loss, lining of canal, implementation of rotational water supply device& water harvesting. This facts is beneficial
for taking remedial measures to reap full I.P. Utilization.
