Question
A catchment area which is having a slope of 2% has four gauging stations. Determine
the type of soil having the highest net irrigation requirement in m if the crop factor on
the area is 0.495 and the pan evaporation is 201mm, the conveyance efficiency is
34%. The distance of GS1 to GS4 is 490km, GS1 to GS2 is 484km, GS2 to GS3 is
285km, GS3 to GS4 is 658km, GS1 to GS3 is 735km, and GS4 to GS2 is 778km. The
rainfall depths recorded per year in GS1, GS2, GS3, and GS4 are 245mm, 215mm,
178mm, and 150mm and the corresponding polygon areas of each gauging station is
50,845 hec, 480km2, 750km2, and 640km2, respectively.
