The bed-and-furrow irrigation method is believed to be a water-saving technique that considers the farm as the boundary of analysis. However, if the boundary of analysis is a basin, then the water-saving aspect mentioned before is only applicable when the groundwater is brackish and is not suitable for irrigation purposes. One of the major advantages of the bed-and-furrow irrigation method is that the water advances faster to the end of the field, hence, the required water application depth is reached earlier. Less time is required to irrigate an acre, and thus, the farmer can irrigate more bunded units during the warabandi. The concept of light but frequent irrigation events not only allows the farmer to irrigate more bunded units, but also results in lower crop water details when compared with the basin irrigation method.
