River Basin Hydro-Salinity-Economic Modeling
Publication: Journal of the Irrigation and Drainage Division
Volume 107, Issue 1
Abstract
A method is presented that combines a crop yield/economic model with a hydrologic-salinity simulation model to estimate irrigation management effects of sequential water use in a river basin. Crop yields are assumed to be a function of seasonal evapotranspiration and soil solution salinities. The combined model was applied to the Hadejia River Basin in northern Nigeria. The relative efficiency of water use, with respect to crop production, is presented for selected management alternatives.
