Irrigation water use services model based on the water optimization

Abstract

Various efforts to improve the welfare of the community have become the priority of government programs currently, especially in providing food by encouraging the development of the irrigation sector. The decline in water resources both in terms of quantity and quality also make a triggers the problem of water distribution when there is an imbalance between demand and supply. The desire among farmers to obtain water immediately may cause problems in how to distribute water fairly and equally. Sempor Irrigation System (5.888 ha) also deal with water distribution problems especially during the dry season. The purpose of this research is to determine the water distribution system based on water optimization therefore the irrigation performance can be measured more precisely. Meanwhile, the methodology is uses descriptive research method on fields’ irrigation research. The results of this study will be obtained a irrigation water use services model.
