| Title | Utilization of water in agriculture: strategy for the future Die benutting van water in die landbou: strategie vir die toekoms | |
| Creator | van der Merwe, D. S. | |
| Description | A n exposition is given of the factors influencing future utilization of water in agriculture. These are the quantity of water available for agricultural purposes, the increasing mineralisation of irrigation water and the effect of energy demands on irrigation. To meet this situation, research is necessary. The recommendations of four irrigation research workshops in this regard are discussed. From these discussions a strategy for future water ’n Uiteensetting word gegee van die faktore wat die hoofrol in die toekomstige waterbenutting in die landbou gaan speel. Hierdie faktore is die hoeveelheid water beskikbaar vir landboudoeleindes; die toenemende mineraiisasie van besproeiingswater; en die invloed wat energiebehoeftes op besproeiing sal hê. Navorsing is nodig om die situasie na wense te hanteer, en die aanbevelings van besproeiingsnavorsingswerksessies in hierdie verband word kortliks aangedui en bespreek. | |
