However, the performance of the irrigation scheme has not been<br> evaluated yet. In the present study, the performance of the scheme was evaluated by<br> estimating water delivery performance indicators, water conveyance efficiency, water<br> conveyance losses, and satisfaction of irrigation users. The water delivery performance<br> adequacy, efficiency, equity and dependability were evaluated by monitoring discharge at<br> nine selected offtakes; three each at the head, middle and tail end of the scheme command<br> area during the crop season from April to June 2017. The water conveyance efficiency of<br> the main and secondary canals and thus the water losses in water conveyance were<br> estimated by measuring irrigation water flow at different locations along the canals. The<br> satisfaction of the irrigation water users from the irrigation service received was<br> evaluated using the binary Logit Model at the head, middle and tail end of the irrigation<br> scheme, and for the entire irrigation scheme. Irrigation water flow in the main and<br> secondary canals, as well as at nine tertiary offtakes was measured using Current meter<br> and 3-inch Parshall flume. The data were analyzed using STATA, CROPWAT, ARC GIS<br> software, and Microsoft Excel. The water delivery performance indicators adequacy,<br> efficiency, equity and dependability varied widely from head to tail reach and, during the<br> crop season from April to June with overall average value equal to 0.88, 0.92, 0.09 and<br> 0.11 respectively. Thus, the irrigation scheme when compared with Molden and Gates<br> (1990) standards was found under fair condition in adequacy and dependability and<br> under good condition in efficiency and equity.</p></dct:description> <dct:accessRights rdf:resource="http://publications.europa.eu/resource/authority/access-right/PUBLIC"/> <dct:accessRights> <dct:RightsStatement rdf:about="info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess"> <rdfs:label>Open Access</rdfs:label> </dct:RightsStatement> </dct:accessRights> <dcat:distribution> <dcat:Distribution> <dct:rights> <dct:RightsStatement rdf:about="http://www.opendefinition.org/licenses/cc-by"> <rdfs:label>Creative Commons Attribution</rdfs:label> </dct:RightsStatement> </dct:rights> <dcat:accessURL rdf:resource="https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:1441"/> </dcat:Distribution> </dcat:distribution> <dcat:distribution> <dcat:Distribution> <dcat:accessURL rdf:resource="https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:1441"/> <dcat:byteSize>1813410</dcat:byteSize> <dcat:downloadURL rdf:resource="https://nadre.ethernet.edu.et/record/1441/files/f1044791800_Appendix_C_Questionnaire_Prepared_Concerning_Users_Satisfaction.pdf"/> <dcat:mediaType>application/pdf</dcat:mediaType> </dcat:Distribution> </dcat:distribution> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>
