Abstract

Complete water control and measurement in farm distribution systems are essential
requirements for an efficient irrigation system. Problems and hydraulic principles
involved in the selection, design and operation of structures for accurate water
control and measurement are presented in this chapter. For convenience, the
chapter has been divided into two main categories, open channel and closed systems.
Control and measurement structures and methods are discussed for each.
