The physico-chemical parameters were studied measuring electrical conductivity, pH and total dissolved salts for the evaluation of the quality of drinkable H2O and the findings were checked by comparing them with the limits allowed by the WHO. pH values of 05 specimens were (6.12 - 6.4 pH) below permitted limit value. The electrical conductivity (EC) of 06 specimens were higher than the permitted limit. The total dissolved salts (TDS) in 13 specimens were higher than the permitted limit. The As kit method has been employed to examine As from samples of groundwater. It is a hand-held and user-friendly method for the analysis of As from ground H2O. The permitted/safe limit of As given by WHO is 0.01mg/L or 10μg/L. The 34 (47.2%) arsenic containing water sampling were beyond the WHO permitted limit.

  • GIS Based Approach Estimation of Area Under Wheat and Other Major Rabi Crops in District Ghotki and Corresponding Irrigation Water Requirement
    ACTA SCIENTIFIC AGRICULTURE (ISSN: 2581-365X) Volume 3 Issue 12 December 2019 Research Article GIS Based Approach Estimation of Area under Wheat and Other Major Rabi Crops in District Ghotki and Corresponding Irrigation Water Requirement Shoukat Ali Shah1* and Altaf Ali Siyal2 1Master of Engineering, Institute of Water Resources Engineering and Management, Mehran University of Engineering and Technology Jamshoro, Pakistan 2Professor, US-Pakistan Center for Advanced Studies in Water, Mehran University of Engineering and Technology Jamshoro, Pakistan *Corresponding Author: Shoukat Ali Shah, Master of Engineering, Institute of Water Resources Engineering and Management, Mehran University of Engineering and Technology Jamshoro, Pakistan. Received: November 01, 2019; Published: November 18, 2019 DOI: 10.31080/ASAG.2019.03.0725 Abstract Accurate and reliable information about crop acreage, yield, and water requirements immediately after sowing is desirable for the local, regional and international agricultural markets to predict the grain prices well in advance. The present study was thus carried out to estimate the area under major Rabi crops and the corresponding irrigation water requirements for district Ghotki using GIS - ing ArcGIS 10.3 software. Based on satellite data, it was estimated that wheat was a major Rabi crop of Ghotki district during 2016-17, and Remote sensing tools. The field and historical data were gathered and analyzed statistically while satellite data was classified us which was cultivated over an area of about 123427 ha, occupying about 19.39% of the total geographical area of the district. While, the sugarcane was second major Rabi crop, which was cultivated over an area of about 49116 ha in 2016-17, occupying about 7.72% of the total geographical area of the district.
