The Importance of Water use under Climate Change effects in Semi-Arid Agricultural Areas

Abstract

Irresponsible use of water resources, hunger, drought, extinction of species, vegetation and soil destruction, pollution, global warming and climate change, the thinning of the ozone layer, the negative effects of greenhouse gases was the beginning of the process of global warming. Almost 90 percent of the irrigated agricultural production in our country is carried out by so-called wild irrigation flood irrigation method. To obtain abundant and high-quality forage from pastures, irrigation of this area is to solve the drainage problems, fertilization, weed the war and the various maintenance jobs are dependent on properly.With surface irrigation practices, fertile agricultural land becomes barren in the Southeastern Anatolian region. These lands are becoming agricultural production cannot be done in the future. Therefore, soil and agricultural production to continue in a healthy manner and informed water management practices must be done to protect the soil. The use of wastewater for this purpose irrigation, directing the arid areas of runoff, evaluating and storing rainwater farmers to promote modern irrigation methods, practices that save water and farmer training with consideration should be given to applications involving studies as to ensure its dissemination. We have to use irrigation water in our region with low rainfall. We must look for ways to benefit from rainwater. In this study, in order to ensure sustainable water management in our country under the influence of climate change on agricultural production, land and water use and it has consciously exploredin agriculture.
