SOLVE THIS A stream of 150 litres per second was delivered from a canal and 110 litres per second were delivered to the field. An area of 2.2 hectares was irrigated in eight hours. The effective depth of root zone was 1.5m. The runoff loss in the field was 445 m³. The depth of water penetration varied linearly from 1.5 m at the head end of the field to 1.1 m at the tail end. Available moisture holding capacity of the soil is 200 mm per metre depth of soil. Determine the water conveyance efficiency, water application efficiency, water storage efficiency, and water distribution efficiency Irrigation was started at a moisture extraction level of 50%.
