Description
'Irrigation Engineering by Singh and Su does a great job in covering the wide array of topics that are needed in the field in a way that is both accessible and rigorous. Inclusion of key reference tables and charts as well as worked examples are useful for both learning concepts and implementing designs.' Stephen P. Good, Oregon State University

'This book is a comprehensive treatise on irrigation engineering! It covers a wide range of fundamental topics related to soil-plant-water relations as applied to irrigation … With more than 500 problems peppered throughout the book - half of them meticulously solved - this is a rare treat … I highly recommend this book to students, teachers, scientists, and engineers in academia and consulting.' R. Karthikeyan, Clemson University
'… noteworthy for the clarity and depth with which the authors deal with such a transversal subject … an excellent book for students and scholars in agricultural engineering that have to study independently, or want full support to prepare for university and professional licensing exams.' Giorgio Baiamonte, Università di Palermo
'… an invaluable book for understanding the design and operation of modern irrigation systems … The book gives engineers and scientists access to an extensive range of key subjects covering crops, soils, land, water, and irrigation methods together with the core theory of irrigation design and water management. Topics are placed in a wider perspective, including issues of global food supply, water resources management and environmental sustainability - making the book effectively a modern day Encyclopaedia of Irrigation.' Derek Clarke, University of Southampton
'A significant contribution to the field of irrigation engineering. This book is full of important information for anyone considering water resources engineering, particularly agricultural irrigation. It introduces a wide range of irrigation techniques practical for academia and water professionals. Very comprehensive and easy to read.' Hossein Hashemi, Lund University
Vijay P. Singh is University Distinguished Professor, Regents Professor, and Caroline and William N. Lehrer Distinguished Chair in Water Engineering at Texas A&M University. To date, he has published more than 1370 journal articles, 120 books, and 113 book chapters in hydrology, groundwater, hydraulics, irrigation, pollutant transport, copulas, entropy, and water resources. He has received more than 100 national and international awards, and is past President of the American Institute of Hydrology (AIH) and the American Academy of Water Resources Engineers (AAWRE). Qiong Su is based in the Water Management and Hydrological Science Program at Texas A&M University. She is a member of American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) and the American Geophysical Union (AGU). She received several travel awards, graduate student scholarships, and an outstanding contributions in reviewing award. She has published peer-reviewed papers in the areas of hydrology, water quality, irrigation, water-energy nexus, and water resources. She was a teaching assistant for the irrigation engineering course at Texas A&M.
