| Abstract | ||
| The research aims to study of the efficiency of water irrigation use in irrigation water systems in new land in Sohag, measuring the efficiency of production of crop irrigation use according in production of crop in the new sample study in Sohag territory. The has eurch shoued that efficient that the drip irrigation system is technically in the use of water in irrigation especially in the new territory. reaching productivity cubic meter of water for irrigation to the tomato about 19.8 kg/m3, and that the production per ton needs about 50.50 m3 only, followed by sorghum crop of about 0.91 kg/ m3 and requires the production of a ton of it around 1098.90 m3, and that the net return to the unity of the water used in accordance with the system of drip irrigation in tomato production is estimated at 13.33 pounds, and achieved the highest return of pounds of irrigation costs tomato crop at about 28.9 pounds, and decreases in the sorghum crop of about 14.3 pounds. While productivity cubic meter of irrigation water according to the system of surface irrigation in tomato crop is estimated at 14 kg/ m3, and needs the production per ton to about 71.43 m3. And that the net return per unit of water (m3) achieved about 8.9 C in tomato production, and reached the highest return of pounds of irrigation costs about 36.6 pounds in surface irrigation system, dropping to its lowest level in sorghum and wheat crop at about 5.65 pounds, 2.43, respectively. Technical efficiency did not materialize according to different irrigation systems only in the case of the production of tomatoes drip irrigation system where one was true, did not materialize to the surface irrigation system, which reflects the existence of a waste to use especially in surface irrigation water system, It was found that it is possible to increase the productivity for some crops study without the need to increase water used in irrigation, especially in surface irrigation, where it can increase productivity to crop tomatoes and sorghum by 0.38% and 0.74% respectively. | ||
