Low level of efficiency is a main problem of surface irrigation systems that is due to their poor
design and management. Furrow inflow rate and cut off time are the most important design parameters
that affect the efficiency of furrow irrigation. In this study, furrow irrigation condition of Amir Kabir
Agro-Industry sugarcane fields was simulated with WinSRFR3.1 Model. Then, irrigation performances
of the relevant fields for different cut-off times and inflow rates were evaluated. Water flow was
simulated for the both open and block-ends furrow positions. Selected furrows for flow simulation had
a length of 250 m, with a slope of 0.04 percent and 1.83 m spacing between the furrows. The input data
of the model were measured in these furrows for an inflow rate of 1.5 Ls-1. Four performance
evaluation indices namely, the application efficiency (Ea), distribution uniformity (DU), deep
percolation ratio (DPR) and tail water ratio (TWR) were computed for evaluating the irrigation
performance in the selected furrows. Prior to simulations, the model was calibrated for local conditions
by using measured and simulated flow advance time. The results showed that the best option for furrow
irrigation of Amir Kabir Agro-Industry fields is the use of end-blocked system with inflow rate of 1.8
Ls-1 and irrigation duration time of 5 hr.
