Irrigated agriculture in India - Challenges & Opportunities Prof. Sarma P.B.S. Professor & Project, Director Water Technology Centre Chairman, School of Resource Management, Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi Professor Emeritus, IIT, Delhi. Online published on 12 December, 2012. Abstract Water is the single vital input in agriculture and has a major contribution in ensuring stability, self-sufficiency, and sustainability of our food grain production. The importance of irrigation in increasing and sustaining higher levels of agricultural production was well recognised in India from time immemorium as evidenced from the following quotation: “No grain is ever produced without water, but too much water tends to spoil the grain. An inundation is as injurious to growth as dearth of water” — Narada Smrithi” XI.19 Top | |
