Hannan, T.C. | Coals, V.A.
Throughout the world the importance of water management is becoming more important as the demand for water increases. As one of the major uses of water, irrigation could benefit from improved management practices. The establishment of a Water Operations Centre in Indonesia has seen the development of a real-time water-allocation model for a complex irrigation system covering 60000 ha. The model uses linear programming (an optimization technique) to determine the best way in which to allocate limited water supplies while keeping crop yield losses to a minimum.
