  Author(s): Fekadu Fufa*
  
  In order to evaluate the effects of irrigation practices, discover performance gaps, and enhance system performance, irrigation scheme performance assessment is essential. However, since the Yelen irrigation scheme began operation, no irrigation performance assessment has been carried out. As a result, the purpose of this study is to identify and comprehend the Yelen irrigation scheme's current irrigation performance. Hydraulic performance was assessed using the adequacy, efficiency, dependability, deficiency, and equity indicators. While secondary data came from a variety of sources, primary data were gathered through transect walks, household surveys, group discussions, and flow measurement with a Parshall flume and current meter. The data were analyzed using the CROPWAT 8.0 model, SPSS, Microsoft Excel, and GIS software. The amounts of water that were applied, as well as the am.. Read More»
