“…The reason is that the water 'losses' of CE are not necessarily 'real' water losses to the system as a whole -many of these losses are only paper lossesbecause they are captured and recycled elsewhere in the system. While this problem has probably been in the back of people's heads for a long time (as shown below, it is intimately related to King Parakramabahu's declaration used as an epigraph for this chapter), Wright (1964), Bagley (1965) and Jensen (1967) are the first published references we know that discuss this problem clearly and explicitly. The fact of water recycling set up a 'problem situation', as the philosopher Karl R. Popper (1962) describes it, which evolved through a process of articulation and refinement (or, in Popper's classic phrase, 'conjectures and refutations') to what we call the neoclassical concept of irrigation efficiency.…”

“…In addition, most existing definitions are designed for evaluating field‐scale or district‐scale irrigation performance without accounting for the complex water cycle at a basin scale. It has been reported that the IE of a given irrigation system may increase from the field scale to the basin scale (H. Chen et al., 2013; Droogers & Kite, 2001; Solomon & Davidoff, 1999) because the “water losses” per field‐scale or district‐scale definitions of IE may be recovered and reused at the basin scale (Bagley, 1965), a potential cause of the previously mentioned paradox. However, IE quantification at the basin scale remains a significant challenge.…”
