A Field Manual for Water Lifting and Management in Small-Scale Irrigation Systems in Niger
W. Ray Norman
This manual has been developed primarily for small-scale irrigated "microsystems," which are usually characterized as single-source/single-user systems. It is targeted primarily at extension and agricultural service agents, and PVO/NGO personnel, who are involved in the development, design, study, or evaluation of small-scale irrigated production in Niger. The attempt has been made to provide practical information on technical aspects of small-scale irrigation that has otherwise been lacking or unavailable to field-level personnel. The methods, equations and coefficients which are provided in this manual are for the most part only proximate, in order to facilitate rapid and simple application in the field.
