- Time of irrigation
- Canal Condition (Lined canal/ Unlined canal)
- The climatic condition of the area
- Base periods of crops
-
The character of soil and subsoil of the canal.
Important Points
Relationship between duty and delta:
\(D\times Δ =8.64\times B\)
Where D = Duty in hectare/cumec, Δ = Delta (m), B = Base Period (days)
