Abstract: | Nearly 60 per cent of the geographical area of Haryana state in Indian Union is underlain by saline ground water. The intra-basin transfer of surface water in the early sixties for irrigation has disturbed the hydrodynamic equilibrium resulting in waterlogging and salinization in large parts of the state. The existing inland drainage basin conditions did not permit the disposal of drainage effluent. The reuse system was therefore, integrated with the drainage system. A model RESBAL was coupled with the calibrated and validated on-farm water management model FAIDS and run for eight years to optimally design a series of connected reservoirs for the disposal of drainage effluent from an area provided with a subsurface drainage system. The possibility of the reuse of the disposed water for irrigation, aqua culture and salt harvesting was also studied comprehensively in order to maintain proper salt balance in the root zone. |
