Özet

To get an appropriate yield and production for winter wheat, it must be irrigated. Cotton and corn must be almost irrigated in the regions grown. Amount of irrigation water of 4000-4500 m(3) ha(-1) need for optimum wheat production. More than 50% of the country's cotton production is in Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey and cotton need amount of irrigation water approximately 10000 m(3) ha(-1) for an appropriate production using surface irrigation methods. However, the amount of irrigation water of 5 000-6 000 m(3) ha(-1) is enough if modern irrigation technologies such as drip irrigation are used. Similarly, amount of irrigation water more than 10000 m(3) ha(-1) has been used for corn production under the surface irrigation conditions and it is possible to save nearly 40-50% of water using drip irrigation method in the same region. One of the most important ways of ensuring sustainability of irrigated agriculture is to use micro irrigation, and it may help in saving significant amount of water and increase the quality and quantity of produce. Thus, it is possible to achieve both higher water productivity and higher yield by means of drip irrigation.
