Annual irrigation intensity:
By adding intensities of irrigation for all the crop seasons we obtain the annual intensity of irrigation.
Annual intensity of irrigation can be more than 100%.
The annual irrigation intensity is usually found to be in the range of 40 to 60%. But needs to be raised in the range of 100 to 180% by cultivating larger parts of CCA with more than one crop in a year.
Important Points
Intensity of irrigation is the percentage of Culturable Commanded c (CCA) to be irrigated annually for a particular crop season.
CCA is portion of gross commanded area that is cultivable.
CCA = Gross Command Area – Uncultivable area (pasture lands, ponds, townships, waste land)
