  • Concerns of Groundwater Depletion and Irrigation Efficiency in Punjab Agriculture: a Micro-Level Study
    Agricultural Economics Research Review Vol. 21 July-December 2008 pp 191-199 Concerns of Groundwater Depletion and Irrigation Efficiency in Punjab Agriculture: A Micro-Level Study Anupama Jeevandasa, R.P. Singha and Ranjit Kumarb aDivision of Agricultural Economics, Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi - 110 012 bIndian Institute of Soil Science, Nabibagh, Berasia Road, Bhopal - 462 038 Abstract The present study, conducted during 2005-06, in two districts, viz. Amritsar and Faridkot of Punjab, (former having pre-dominantly tubewell-irrigated area and the latter having canal + tubewell irrigation facilities) has assessed the extent of water depletion and has measured irrigation efficiency at the farm level. Due to profitability and availability of water at shallow depths during 1970s, paddy and wheat (two of the high water-consuming crops) replaced other crops like maize, groundnut and pulses in the entire state. The area under these two crops increased from 7.22 per cent to 32.92 per cent for paddy and from 37.12 per cent to 43.53 per cent for wheat, from TE 1965 to TE 2005. Consequently, the problem of groundwater depletion has become severe in the Amritsar district, with a fall of 77cm/ annum in watertable. In the district of Faridkot, this fall has been of 33cm/annuum. The technical efficiency of irrigation on farms estimated through Data Envelopment Analysis, has indicated the mean irrigation efficiency of 57 per cent and 65 per cent in paddy production and 61 per cent and 68 per cent in wheat production, in tubewell-irrigated and canal+tubewell irrigated farms, respectively. It has clearly indicated that there is potential to improve irrigation efficiency by 39 per cent and 32 per cent, respectively in the sample farms.

  • Arsenic Detection in Hand Pump Water Samples of Districts of Punjab (Bathinda, Faridkot and Moga)
    © 2018 IJRAR May 2018, Volume 5, Issue 2 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) ARSENIC DETECTION IN HAND PUMP WATER SAMPLES OF DISTRICTS OF PUNJAB (BATHINDA, FARIDKOT AND MOGA) Mandeep Sidhu*1 Promila Sama2 Research Scholar Associate Professor, Medical Lab Sciences Department of Biotechnology BIS Institute of Science and Technology, Gagra , IK Gujral PTU, Kapurthala, Punjab Moga, Punjab Sheelendra M Bhatt3 Associate Professor, Amritsar Group of Engineering & Technology, Amritsar, Punjab. ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to analyse presence of arsenic in hand pump water samples collected from districts in Punjab (Bathinda, Faridkot and Moga district (Malwa region). Total 40 hand pump water samples were collected from each district. In Bathinda district, value of arsenic ranged from 0.008 to 0.1530 ppm with mean value of 0.0569 ppm. Similarly, in Faridkot district,value ranges from 0 to 0.153 ppm with mean value of 0.0156 ppm and in Moga districts ,value ranges from 0 to 0.0137 ppm with mean value of 0.0021 ppm. The study reveals that hand pump water samples collected from these three different districts are not for good quality since some samples were having increased level of arsenic concentration as recommended by WHO and USEPA (0.01 mg/L). Keywords : Arsenic, As, water, ICAP-AES I. INTRODUCTION Arsenic (As), is the most naturally occurring element which is found throughout earth’s crust. It potentially toxic element and can exist in both inorganic or organic form. Inorganic form of arsenic is generally considered more toxic [8].
