Agricultural Engineering > GATE 2021 > Irrigation Efficiency
A pump, discharging water at a rate of 80 L s⁻¹, is used to irrigate 2 ha of land in 10 h. On irrigation, moisture content of the soil (on weight basis) in the root zone depth of 50 cm is increased from 18% to 30%. If bulk density of the soil is 1500 kg m⁻³, water application efficiency in per cent is [round off to 2 decimal places]
Correct : 62.50
