| dc.description | This technical report focuses on Koga, in Ethiopia, and describes the process of developing, designing, piloting and evaluating potential solutions to increase water productivity sustainably, which is the third objective of component 4 of the project on WaPOR (Using Remote Sensing in support of solutions to reduce agricultural water productivity gaps). As irrigated areas expand, more attention must be paid to on-farm water management so as to allow for optimal use and distribution of water resources. Using WaPOR data, that is, remote-sensing based water productivity parameters, this report characterises the status of water use and productivity in the Koga irrigation scheme. It also uses the data to measure the changes occuring after the implementation of low-cost tools and irrigation practices so as to: increase yield and to reduce the water consumed or applied during the irrigation season. | |
