Abstract

Auto-mechanization of surface irrigation refers to the use of mechanical
gates, structures, or other devices and systems that automatically divert
water onto an agricultural field in the proper amount and at the proper time
to satisfy the demands of a growing crop. This enables the farmer to apply
water more efficiently and with a minimum of labor.
