Book Description
Matching the appropriate technology to food production is now recognized as vital to Third World development. The construction of water storage devices and especially dams on rivers or streams is often crucial in tropical, sub-tropical and Mediterranean climates, where the cultivation of food and cash crops depends upon the availability of water in large quantities. Where natural surface flows are inadequate and ground water supplies are insufficient, such dams, storing off-season water, can become invaluable not only for irrigation, but also for a whole variety of other agricultural purposes. This book is a practical manual for the planning, construction and maintenance of weirs and dams.
