Answer:

installation of lift irrigation schems.

Answer 2

•Preventive measures:-

1. Controlling seepage from the canals: -

By following measures should be adopted to reduce seepage from the canals.

a) By lowering the F.S.L of the canal:-

When the full supply level of canal is lowered then the loss of water’s seepage loss is reduced, and hence water logging is also reduced.

b) By lining of canal :-

The bed and sides of the canal should be lined by protective materials so that seepage loss is reduced and hence water logging is also reduced.

2. Disposal of rain water:-

Rain water as soon as, it falls on the earth’s surface should be disposed of as soon as possible otherwise it will increase water logging.

3. Reducing the intensity of irrigation:-

The intensity should be reduced in this area where water logging occurred. Irrigation should be done rotation wise in different seasons.
