Abstract

In this research, two procedures have been developed to predict runoff hydrographs from graded border and furrow irrigation systems. One of the procedures is based upon volume balance principle and the other is based upon the application of Manning's formula.
The results of the two procedures were compared with actual measured field data in different locations and good agreement has been noticed between measured and predicted runoff discharges. Also, it has been found that the results of the two procedures coincide with each other through a proper selection of the time increment. The developed procedures can be used to design of graded border or furrow irrigation systems
