This dissertation, submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the Academic Board of Wageningen University and the Academic Board of UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education, demonstrates the applicability of surge flow irrigation for water saving under the short field conditions that prevail in Egypt. The results indicate that surge flow irrigation is an effective irrigation method to save water and to increase crop production. B&w photos, a glossary, and appendices of tables are included. The book is distributed in the US by Ashgate. Author information is not given in English, and there is no subject index. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
