Abstract This article discusses the traditional irrigation system in the oases of Touat, Gourara and Tidikelt. Since centuries, farmers use the system of foggaras for irrigation of palm groves and gardens. The results obtained following the inquiries and investigations carried out on the sites of foggaras, showed that since the eighties, drilling works multiplied in the oases of Touat, Gourara and Tidikelt. However, despite the application of these new techniques of water catchment, farmers still irrigate their gardens by traditional methods. For social, economic and environmental problems, foggaras degrade more and more; 50% of the foggaras decayed. Currently, the discharge of foggaras in service greatly diminished. The adoption of modern catchment techniques entails to the lowering of the water table.

Abstract. Algeria is a vast country with three climatic types and different water resources. These resources are limited especially in the climatic zone two where most staple crops (e.g. wheat) are cultivated. To manage these water resources efficiently, traditional irrigation systems should be replaced by those based on advanced technological techniques. This paper introduces an irrigation system prototype constructed at the department of Electrical Engineering, University of Setif in Algeria. This prototype allows the control of the amount of water dispensed to the plant according to its soil moisture. The circuit was built around an Arduino microcontroller. A program was developed and burned into the microcontroller which was able to sense the amount of the moisture in the plant soil through a moisture sensor. According to this moisture quantity, the microcontroller is to take decision to on or off a small pump for an optimum time and flow speed. The pump was driven by a direct current motor which was controlled by a pulse width modulation dc chopper. The system is enhanced by a liquid crystal display to inform the operator about the moisture percentage, status of the pump and its speed.

The agriculture sector plays vital role in overall socio-economic status of India. The involvement of Indian population in agriculture and associated activities is 54.6% (census 2011). The net cropped area is 43% of entire geographical region of India and area under irrigation is 68 million hectares. However, availability of water is an important for agriculture. The supply of water to agriculture field is known as irrigation, in traditional irrigation method there is wastage of water. The evapotranspiration (ET) is combined technique, in this wetness of soil is lost in the form of evaporation in atmosphere and plants absorbing water from soil is transferred to atmosphere. Evapotranspiration depends on uncertain parameters like radiation of solar, temperature of air, speed of wind and humidity. Thus, in this research work a smart fuzzy control water irrigation system is designed to tackle uncertain situations maintaining proper water level as per requirements of crops.

The present investigation carries out the analysis of the technological innovation of the application of pressurized irrigation in seven user directories of the San Juan - Patoa River of La Matriz Parish of the Pujilí Canton, for which the objectives were: To identify the degree of adoption of the technification of traditional irrigation; Observe the degree of commitment of the irrigators for the adoption of the irrigation system; Establish interinstitutional collaboration in the execution of the project. The methodology applied in the present analysis is based on the theory of innovation. From which it is concluded that: 14% of the seven directories of users of irrigation water, has implemented the system of pressurized irrigation with a reservoir of 80000 m3 for 490 ha; The members of the seven irrigation boards signed the agreements for the technification of the irrigation system; The municipal GAD of Pujilí canton paid for the studies, the Provincial GAD of Cotopaxi executed the work, with the supervision of the National Directorate of Water Resources Keywords: technological innovation, pressurized irrigation

Subak as an irrigation system in Bali is estimated to have existed before the IX century and up to now subak has consistently maintained the continuity of traditional irrigation management and operation of the irrigation system. Subak is a socio-agrarian and religious based on the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana rooted in Hindu philosophy. The challenge of subak in general is that the shrinking of the subak area, the farmers are unable to achieve a decent living, the age of the farmers is over 40 years, the financial burden that farmers bear in doing subak activities is very heavy. The condition is also very much felt in the city of Denpasar as the capital of the province of Bali. The Government has determined to preserve subak as a cultural heritage to realize Denpasar as a Heritage City. The conservation effort is carried out through: maintaining the subak area through local regulations as green open space (RTHK), providing various assistance such as: exempting subak areas from taxes and providing insurance assistance in case of crop failure, assistance for ritual implementation, irrigation channel repair assistance, production facilities, agricultural equipment assistance, incentives for subak managers, providing assistance in realizing subak as ecotourism, plan to provide scholarships for the children of subak farmers.
