Abstract

Agricultural sector is the most water-consuming sector in Egypt, where it utilizes around 85% of the available water resources. This is because of the main dependence of crop production on traditional irrigation methods. The adoption of the traditional irrigation methods in the Egyptian agricultural system is the core of the current research issue since it leads to many problems including degradation of arable land, increasing of the underground water level and consequently decreasing the yield of various crops.  In addition, drainage and misusing of water resources represent the major challenge facing the implementation of horizontal expansion projects. Hence, there is a crucial need for enlightening the agricultural producers about the importance of the modern technological methods of irrigation and their possible useful application through measuring their effects on the efficiency utilization of agricultural economic resources.
