The influence of seepage from canals and paddy fields on the groundwater level of neighboring rotation cropping fields: a case study from the lower Ili River Basin,Kazakhstan

In the large-scale irrigation schemes of the lower Ili River Basin of Kazakhstan, crop rotation combines paddy rice and non-rice crops. Continuous irrigation is practiced in paddy fields, whereas other crops are sustained from groundwater after only limited early irrigation. The water table in non-rice crops is raised by seepage from canals and the flooded paddy fields. We investigated the areal extent to which the groundwater level of non-irrigated fields is influenced by seepage from canals and paddy fields by examining the relationship between distance (from canal and paddy field) and groundwater level in upland fields. The groundwater level was influenced for up to 300 and 400 m from the canals and paddy fields, respectively. Geographic information system analysis of crop and canal patterns in the 11 selected years showed that if the zone of influence is 300 and 400 m from the canals and paddy fields, respectively, the groundwater level of most of the area of upland fields was raised by seepage. We conclude that the water supply to cropping fields by seepage from irrigation canals and paddy fields is adequate, but the spatial distribution of the paddy fields may be an important factor that needs more attention to help improve water use efficiency in this irrigation district.     

Estimation of supplementary water to paddy fields in the lower Mekong River basin during the dry season

Efficient management of water resources in paddy fields requires an understanding of the volume of supplementary water used. However, quantifying the volume is laborious due to the large amount of data that must be collected and analyzed. The purpose of our study was to estimate the volume of supplementary water used in paddy fields, based on several years of available statistical data, and to provide information on how much water can be supplied to paddy fields in each target area. In this study, the lower Mekong River basin of northeast Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia was selected as the study area. In the first step, we used agricultural statistics for each country, rainfall data acquired from the Mekong River Commission Secretariat (MRCS), and the value of virtual water required per unit of rice production. Because several years of data were used for dry season harvested areas and rice production in each country, the supplementary water to paddy fields in each province was calculated using virtual water and rainfall. This method made it possible to estimate changes in supplementary water in each province. Through this study, the supplementary water to paddy fields during the dry season in three countries was approximated from the minimum number of data sets. Moreover, for cases in which it is not possible to procure agricultural water use data for a hydrological model simulation, an alternative solution is proposed.     

Pyrethroids levels in paddy field water under Mediterranean conditions: measurements and distribution modelling

The cultivation of rice (Oriza sativa L.) under Mediterranean conditions regularly requires the use of treated wastewater due to shortage of freshwater. As a consequence, the intensification of rice production to supply the uprising demand of grain could break the stability between agriculture and environment. In this work, we studied the occurrence and distribution of pyrethroids in surface water and groundwater collected during two periods (flooding and dry soil conditions) in paddy fields located in the Spanish Mediterranean coast. Pyrethroids were detected at concentrations ranging from 14 to 1450 ng L^?1 in surface water and from 6 to 833 ng L^?1 in groundwater. The results obtained were evaluated statistically using principal component analysis, and differences between both sampling campaigns were found, with lower concentrations of the target compounds during the flooding sampling event. Moreover, a geographic information system program was used to represent a model distribution of the obtained results, showing wastewater treatment plants as the main sources of contamination and the decrease of pyrethroids during flooding condition when water flows over the paddy fields. The impact of these compounds on water quality was discussed.     

Economic valuation of cultivated lands as nitrogen removal/effusion sites by newly proposed replacement cost method

To valuate the multifunctionality economically is effective to make it possible to realize the value for the nation and to compare functionalities among countries of the world. In this paper, the external economies of paddy fields and fallow paddy fields including wetlands as N removal function sites, and of upland fields and orchards as pollution sites are valuated by the newly proposed replacement cost method, by replacing them with construction costs of water quality improvement facilities. In addition, we discuss an agricultural land-use scenario in which cultivated land has no net negative economic effect on the water environment. The results showed that (1) paddy fields and fallow paddy fields including wetlands were respectively valued at 1.2×10³ and 2.81×10³ JPY m⁻² on average as the N removal sites, (2) upland fields had 0.32×10³ JPY m⁻² on average of economic value, and suggested that paddy fields have an external economic value that compensates for the negative external economic value of upland fields 3.65 times their size.     

Export rate of dissolved organic matter from paddy fields during cultivation-activity events

The aim of this study is to quantify the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of drainage water from paddy fields in agricultural areas of Tottori prefecture, Japan. In four experimental paddy fields, DOC concentration varied much from 1.1 to 10.1 mg C l⁻¹, and was the highest during heavy runoff that occurred in April when there was a non-agricultural period. However, variation in DOC concentration did not always correspond to rainfall, but depended more on cultivation-activity events such as tilling, planting, draining in summer, and final draining in autumn. The water discharge rate from each experimental field was estimated by using a hydrologic model (the Tank Model and a genetic algorithm). Daily DOC export rate per unit area of three experimental paddy fields was calculated to be 0.0074, 0.0052, and 0.0081 kg a⁻¹ day⁻¹, respectively. The daily DOC export rate showed large seasonal variation with the highest value in May and June. It can be concluded that DOC export from paddy fields can be a substantial source of DOC in receiving waters, and the export rate depends much on cultivation method practice. It might be suggested that DOC export from paddy fields can be controlled by a better water management practice of farmers.     

Clarification of adsorption and movement by predicting ammonia nitrogen concentrations in paddy percolation water

We noted that ammonia nitrogen was not adsorbed by the cultivated layers of highly permeable paddy fields during the initial fertilization period, but reached the lower layers relatively early. In our study, we considered an exponential equation from an aqua-environmental perspective with the goal of obtaining good growth of rice plants in order to estimate the concentrations and integrated volume of ammonia nitrogen accompanying paddy percolation. Using this exponential equation, we were able to derive a relation between time and concentrations of paddy percolation water, and hypothesized that if percolation rates were less than 10 mm/day, percolation would have no effect on rice growth, while simultaneously helping to maintain the good water quality of the extra-paddy environment. We also clarified the differences between the potential ammonia nitrogen adsorption volume derived from the CEC value and the integrated amount of ammonia nitrogen water in soil, and considered the causes from the perspectives of solute movement and water movement.

The role of paddy rice in recharging urban groundwater in the Shira River Basin

Agricultural fields in the middle Shira River basin play an important role as a source of groundwater recharge; however, the water balance between the agricultural water and river water is unclear. This study was conducted to investigate the water balance in the fields by measuring the stream flow of agricultural water channels, which draw water from the Shira River. The flow rate of water channels was found to increase in the beginning of May, which corresponded to the cultivation of paddy rice fields. During summer, the total agricultural intake was comparable to the river flow observed in the middle Shira River Basin. Determination of the water budget for the targeted area revealed that most of the recharged water was dependent on agricultural irrigation from the river. The annual recharge of the overall target area was estimated to be as high as 15,300 mm. In addition, the infiltration rate was as high as 170 mm/day in the paddy fields during summer, and as high as 30 mm/day in the upland fields during winter. In order to recover the groundwater recharge in this region, it is necessary to extend the submerged period to include periods in which the stream water in the Shira River is not subject to heavy rainfall as well.     

Relationship between increment of groundwater level at the beginning of irrigation period and paddy filed area in the Tedori River Alluvial Fan Area, Japan

There are many paddy fields and large amounts of groundwater in the Tedori River Alluvial Fan in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. Water infiltration from paddy fields during irrigation may significantly contribute to groundwater recharge. Groundwater recharge is known to be one outcome of paddy farming, and in general is usually related to land use. However, a decreased area of paddy fields because of socioeconomic factors such as urbanization and increasing area of fallow fields has possibly affected the groundwater environment. Evaluation of the quantitative effect of paddy fields on groundwater is necessary for groundwater conservation. This study examined the relationship between differences in the depth of groundwater from just before the irrigation period to just after the first irrigation of paddy fields (increments of groundwater levels) in observation wells and the area of paddy fields around each well. The paddy areas within circular buffer zones, which were delineated at 0.2 km intervals between 0.2 and 2.0 km centered on each observation well, were calculated. A positive relationship was found between the rise in groundwater and the area of paddy field within different buffer zones at most wells. In addition, in the middle or upper part of the fan, the effect of changes in the area of paddy fields surrounding the well on the groundwater level rise was greater than that on the lower part of the fan.     

Nitrogen and phosphorus runoff modeling in a flat low-lying paddy cultivated area

Chiyoda basin is located in Saga Prefecture in Kyushu Island, Japan, and lies next to the tidal compartment of the Chikugo River to which the excess water in the basin is drained away. Chiyoda basin has a total area of about 1,100 ha and is a typical flat and low-lying paddy-cultivated area. The main environmental issue in this basin is total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) load management because TN and TP, which loaded from farmlands, degrade surface water as a result of anthropogenic eutrophication. This paper presents a mathematical model of TN and TP runoff during an irrigation period in Chiyoda basin in order to elucidate the pollutant fluxes that accompany water transportation in paddy fields and drainage canals, and to evaluate pollutant removal from the study area to the Chikugo River. First, the water flow and the algorithm of gate operation were simulated by a continuous tank model and the accuracy of the model was then evaluated by comparing the simulated water levels with observed ones during an irrigation period. The observed and simulated water levels were in good agreement, indicating that the proposed model is applicable for drainage and water supply analyses in flat, low-lying paddy-cultivated areas. Second, the TN and TP runoff during an irrigation period was simulated based on the TN and TP loads that were determined by observed data in paddy fields. For TN runoff, the simulated results and observed data were in good agreement whereas for TP runoff, the simulated results were higher than the observed data. However, if the settled TP within the paddy tank was calculated as 6%, then the simulated results and the observed data were in good agreement. We concluded that TN runoff from paddy field to the drainage canal system was not affected much by the sediment related process. The present study could provide farmers and managers with a useful tool for controlling the water distribution in an irrigation period, and the TN and TP loads in the downstream area as well as the Chikugo River.     

Model development for surface drainage loading estimates from paddy rice fields

A field experiment was performed at two Korean research sites to evaluate water and nutrient behavior in paddy rice culture operations for 2 years. One site was irrigated with groundwater, whereas the other site was irrigated with surface water. Both sites received average annual rainfall of about 1,300 mm, and about 70–80% of it was concentrated during July–September coinciding with rice growing season. Although most of the nutrient outflow was attributed to plant uptake, nutrient loss by surface drainage was substantial. The simplified computer model, PADDIMOD, was developed to simulate water and nutrient behaviors in the paddy rice field. The model predicts daily ponded water depth, surface drainage, and nutrient concentrations. It was formulated with a few equations and simplified assumptions, but its application and a model fitness test indicated that the simulation results reasonably matched the observed data. It is a simple and practical planning model that could be used to evaluate nutrient loading from paddy rice fields alone or in combination with other complex watershed models. Further validation might be required for general application of the PADDIMOD to the simulation of paddy rice fields with various agricultural environments.     

Influence of overplanting paddy rice on irrigation water delivery performance: a case study in the Dakalt branch canal,Nile Delta of Egypt

In the North Nile Delta of Egypt, the impacts of overplanting paddy rice on water delivery performance have not been discussed quantitatively. Further, the amount of water that could have been saved if farmers would follow the planned area is unknown. In this study, water delivery performance was assessed by comparison of actual paddy rice planting and the government’s planned conditions. For both conditions, performance indicators relating to adequacy, equity, and dependability were analyzed across six locations in conjunction with the branch canal water level in 2013 and 2014. Based on the difference between the actual water supply and planned water demand, the amount of water that could have been saved for downstream uses was calculated. The average adequacy for the investigation period was good at one location, fair at 2 locations, and poor at 3 locations in both years. Further, adequacy under both actual and planned conditions was poor in late July at all locations. The planned adequacy and dependability downstream and equity among locations improved compared to the actual condition in both years. Under the condition that paddy rice area is the upper limit planned by the government, about 12.3% and 9.6% of water could be potentially saved in each year. The difference between actual and planned water delivery performance is caused by the branch canal’s low water level. Control of overplanting paddy rice and coordination of water distribution among water user associations would improve stable water level in the canal and, eventually, water delivery performance.

     

A new method for assessing land leveling to produce high quality consolidated paddy fields

The quality of leveling of 0.3-ha consolidated paddy fields in Japan was investigated. The leveling of normal consolidated plots was accurate to within 7 cm from a horizontal plane, with an average standard deviation of about 18 mm for the points measured throughout the plot. The investigated paddy fields had inclinations ranging from horizontal to quite steep; the average inclination was 0.56‰ (1/1,718). The traditional assessment method is based on a horizontal plane. Because it is difficult to use this method to assess the leveling conditions of paddy fields that have an inclined surface, a new assessment method that accurately evaluates the sloped plane of a paddy field is proposed. The new method assesses the leveling conditions within a field by means of a "state index" that considers both the inclination and the surface roughness. Using this state index not only allowed the conditions to be effectively evaluated, but also helped reduce the extra workload needed to level the field to the farmers' requirements after the initial consolidation.

Evaluation of pollutant removal in a constructed irrigation pond

A year-long study on the water quality and hydrology was carried out to investigate the characteristics of the pollutant concentrations and pollutant removal in a constructed irrigation pond. The pond is part of a circular irrigation system for paddy fields within Lake Kasumigaura watershed, Japan. The average concentrations of the total nitrogen (TN), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total phosphorus (TP), and suspended solids (SS) at the pond outlet were 7.4, 8.6, 0.2, and 18.8 mg L⁻¹, respectively. The average removed loads for the same indices were 0.14, 2.47, 0.11, and 24.2 g m⁻² day⁻¹, respectively. The percentages of pollutant removals from the inflow loads for the same indices were 3, 26, 42, and 63%, respectively. The pond discharged the TN loads of 128 kg due to sediments stirred by operation of a pump for April and May. The average TN removal was 19% from June to August and was smaller than that reported in published literatures (40–50%). Major reasons were considered to be that the turnover of water in the pond was rapid (86% per day) and that the TN concentration of inflow water was relatively low (5.9 mg L⁻¹). The percentages of pollutants that flowed into the pond to the outflow loads from the study site were 6.6, 4.8, 1.6, and 1.1% for TN, COD, TP, and SS loads, respectively. The pollutant removal will be increased if the design of the circular irrigation system is reconsidered to utilize a pollutant removal function in the irrigation pond.     

Numerical simulation on effect of irrigation conditions on water temperature distribution in a paddy field

Water management methods regulate water temperature in paddy fields, which affects rice growth and the environment. To understand the effect of irrigation conditions on water temperature in a paddy field, water temperature distribution under 42 different irrigation models including the use of ICT water management, which enables remote and automatic irrigation, was simulated using a physical model of heat balance. The following results were obtained: (1) Irrigation water temperature had a more significant effect on paddy water temperature close to the inlet. As the distance from the inlet increased, the water temperature converged to an equilibrium, which was determined by meteorological conditions and changes in water depth. (2) Increasing the irrigation rate with higher irrigation water amount increased the extent and magnitude of the effects of the irrigation water temperature. (3) When total irrigation water amount was the same, increasing the irrigation rate decreased the time-averaged temperature gradient effect over time across the paddy field. (4) Irrigation during the lowest and highest paddy water temperatures effectively decreased and increased the equilibrium water temperature, respectively. The results indicate that irrigation management can be used to alter and control water temperature in paddy fields, and showed the potential of ICT water management in enhancing the effect of water management in paddy fields. Our results demonstrated that a numerical simulation using a physical model for water temperature distribution is useful for revealing effective water management techniques under various irrigation methods and meteorological conditions.

     

Evaluation of irrigation water requirements and crop yields with different irrigation schedules for paddy fields in ChiaNan irrigated area,Taiwan

Recent water shortages in reservoirs have caused such problems as insufficient water and fallow rice fields in Southern Taiwan; therefore, comparing irrigation water requirements and crop production of paddy fields using a technique that differs from the conventional flood irrigation method is important. Field experiments for the second paddy field with four irrigation schedules and two repeated treatments were conducted at the HsuehChia Experiment Station, ChiaNan Irrigation Association, Taiwan. Experimental results demonstrate that irrigation water requirements for the comparison method, and 7-, 10- and 15-day irrigation schedules were 1248, 993, 848, and 718 mm, respectively. Compared to the conventional method of flooding fields at a 7-day interval, the 10- and 15-day irrigation schedules reduced water requirements by 14.6 and 27.3 %, respectively; however, crop yields decreased by 7 and 15 %, respectively. Based on the results, it was recommended that the ChaiNan Irrigation Association could adopt 10 days irrigation schedule and plant drought-enduring paddy to save irrigation water requirements for the water resource scarcity in southern Taiwan. The CROPWAT model was utilized to simulate the on-farm water balance with a 10-day irrigation schedule for the second paddy field. A comparison of net irrigation water requirements with the 10-day irrigation schedule from model and field experiment were 818 and 848 mm, respectively, and the error was 3.54 %.     

Evaluation of the water-quality dynamics in a eutrophic agricultural pond by using a one-box ecosystem model considering several algal groups

The Okubo pond is an agricultural pond located in the Itoshima area of Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It was constructed for irrigating a nearby cultivated area. A monitoring program from August 11 to November 26, 2008, suggested the risk of eutrophication in the water body. The high total nitrogen concentration (1.34 mg/l), high total phosphorus concentration (0.06 mg/l) and extreme oxygen depletion (2 mg/l on 5 November 2008) exceeded the Japanese standards for paddy irrigation water. Furthermore, luxuriant algal blooming in October indicated a hypereutrophic status according to the OECD (1982) criteria. In this study, a one-box ecosystem model was developed to obtain an insight into the seasonal variations in the algal concentrations and chemical components of the Okubo pond with the aims of protecting its aquatic ecosystem and maintaining its water quality. The model was based on a completely mixed system and included 12 water-quality indices: green algae, blue-green algae, diatoms and dinoflagellates, cryptophytes, zooplankton, particulate organic matter, dissolved organic matter, phosphate–phosphorus, ammonia–nitrogen, nitrite–nitrogen, nitrate–nitrogen, and dissolved oxygen. The monitoring data were used to verify the model simulation. Model evaluation suggested good agreement between the predicted and the observed data for the seasonal variations in the algal, nutrient, and dissolved oxygen concentrations. To determine the sensitivity of the model parameters, a sensitivity analysis was conducted leading to the conclusion that the optimal temperature, growth rate, and respiratory rate of the four algal groups, especially the ideal temperature for blue-green and green algae are the most influential factors determining the variability affecting the model inference. From the model simulation, the water temperature and nutrient concentration were considered to be the key limiting factors controlling alternative algal blooms in this period.

A refined hydro-environmental watershed model with field-plot-scale resolution

A distributed hydro-environmental model is developed that achieves detailed analysis of the movement of water at a field-plot-scale resolution in a mesoscale watershed including lowland areas where, especially for agricultures, it is an essential need to get rid of redundant groundwater by drainage facilities such as rivers, canals and/or underdrains. For this, the problem geometry is meshed with unstructured cells of triangular shape. Profile of a column cell is zoned into two: surface zone and groundwater zone in which water movement is represented by combined tank and soil moisture sub-models, and well-defined two-dimensional unconfined shallow groundwater flow sub-model, respectively. The top-two sub-models serve to evaluate evapotranspiration, infiltration, soil water content, lateral surface water flow, and vertical percolation. The vertical percolation so evaluated is given as longitudinal recharge to the bottom sub-model for computing groundwater flow. Surface water–groundwater interactions through beds and stream-banks of perennial and ephemeral canals are considered by treating the canal courses as internal boundaries in the groundwater flow model. The finite volume method (FVM) that allows of unstructured mesh and produces conservative solutions is employed for groundwater flow computation. The model developed is applied to an actual watershed which includes a low-lying paddy area to quantify the hydrological impact of land-use management practices over a period of 29 years in which the farmland consolidation project was implemented and part of the paddy fields were converted to upland crop fields and housing lands. From the results obtained, it is concluded that the model presently developed lends itself to water—as well as land-use management practices.     

Quantitative risk assessment for reclaimed wastewater irrigation on paddy rice field in Korea

Water shortage has become an important issue for Korean agriculture. Korea suffers from a limited agricultural water supply, and wastewater reuse has been recommended as an alternative solution. This study examined the concentrations of toxic heavy metals and Escherichia coli in a paddy rice field irrigated with reclaimed wastewater to evaluate the risk to farmers. Most epidemiological studies have been based on upland fields, and therefore may not be directly applicable to paddy fields. In this study, a Beta-Poisson model was used to estimate the microbial risk of pathogen ingestion. The risk value increased significantly after irrigation and precipitation. The results of the microbial risk assessment showed that risk values of groundwater and reclaimed wastewater irrigation were lower than the values of effluent directly from wastewater treatment plants. The monitoring results of heavy metals for each irrigated paddy fields did not show specific tendency. A risk assessment for toxic heavy metals was performed according to various exposure pathways; however, the results of the carcinogenic and noncarcinogenic risk estimation showed that the risk from reclaimed wastewater-irrigated paddy fields was the lowest.
