Measurement and sources of technical eficiency of on-farm water use in the Sudan’s Gezira scheme
The literature identifies two common approaches for estimating technical efficiency. One approach is based on non-parametric, non-stochastic, linear programming. This suffers from the criticism that it does not take into ...
Rainfed benchmark Site selection and characterization
From these workshops and an analysis of project documentation, we can conclude that possibilities for the improvement of water use do exist. These improvements depend not only on technical aspects, but also on organization ...
Systems approach to water productivity assessment using cropping system Models
Irrigation management of crops in Egypt is characterized by the application of more water than the crops require. In fact, large amounts of water are supplied without any estimates of the soil water content at the root ...
