“…Globally, 70% of water use is applied in irrigation of crops, making irrigation the largest consumptive user of fresh water [1]. Over 80% of freshwater withdrawals in developing countries is applied in irrigation [2].…”

“…Also low pressure irrigation application systems are in widespread use nowadays so many can work with less than 10 m pressure. However, it is important to remember that for most farmers' the concept of water efficiency is linked to maximizing their farms' economic productivity rather than saving water per se, except perhaps when their own allocated resources may be inadequate (Knox et al, 2011). Jackson et al (2010) explored the links between irrigation water use and energy consumption in Australia, and the influence of water source and irrigation method on these relationships.…”

“…De même, en adoptant une technologie d'irrigation, les producteurs cherchent à maximiser les bénéfices et à économiser l'eau (Knox et al, 2012). Par conséquent, des efforts de recherche sur trois axes majeures sont indispensables pour comprendre les facteurs d'adoption des technologies d'irrigation à savoir : (i) les perceptions de communautés locales sur les besoins en eau des cultures et les réponses de différentes technologies des cultures sur les rendements des cultures (Hsiao et al, 2007) ; (ii) les interactions entre les perspectives des agricultures, les pratiques innovantes de maitrise de l'eau et les bénéfices économiques de ces technologies (Miller, 2007) .…”
