The research aims to estimate allocated to quench agricultural areas in the coastal region, the amount of water during the period 2002-2012 in case of the use of modern irrigation (drip and sprinkler irrigation) instead of the traditional surface irr
igation according to water legalized each method and the rate of efficiency, as well as to estimate the losses in irrigation networks allocated to agriculture and the development of appropriate pricing mechanisms of government. Find the historical and descriptive approaches adopted, and it was the most important results:
1- The results showed that if the use of drip irrigation surface irrigation in the quench-based surface irrigation acreage allowance contributed to supply up to 40% of the water used in surface irrigation amounts, and an average (174 973 785) cubic meters during the period 2002- 2012.
2- The results showed that if the use of sprinkler irrigation surface irrigation instead of the quench-based surface irrigation acreage for contributed to the supplied amount to 28% of the water used in surface irrigation amounts, and an average (122 481 649) cubic meters during the period studied.
3- economic pricing of agricultural water demand for current pricing varies, it was found that there is a deficit in the recovery of operating and maintenance costs of the territory of farmer beneficiaries of the water public irrigation networks and adult (21,500) per hectare, compared with what is being collected (3500) for. Q per hectare.
Sahl Al-Ghab zone is characterized by the availability of natural and human
appropriate conditions for the cultivation of cotton, and it's one of the most desired
agricultural crops for export, in addition to the big need for local textile mills wi
th both of
its public and private sectors, and it's also one of the strategic and social crops. However,
between 2005-2013, cotton cultivation fell back in this region to be replaced mainly by
wheat in addition to other crops, and the main reasons for this decline is that there is no
proportionality between the price of cotton and production costs, as the price of the
kilogram of cotton rose from 31 S.P in 2005 to 100 S.P in 2013, while the price of the liter
of diesel – the main factor in the cultivation of cotton – rose from 25 S.P in 2005 to 60 S.P
in 2013.
Through this research, We knew the reasons for the decrement of cotton cultivation
in Sahl Al-Ghab zone and choosing the wheat and nothing else to replace it, especially that
wheat cultivation didn't achieve better economic returns of cotton.
On the contrary, it had negative results in terms of non-application of the agricultural
cycle and the spread of diseases such as wheat rust disease that spreaded in Sahl Al-Ghab
zone in the last years and which reflected negatively on production.
The subject of the spatial development in rural areas, one of the topics
that is much talk, the province of Daraa and that statistics show the high
levels of education, and thus the potential of scientific and competencies
in various fields, as well as natural resources, and the Mediterranean
climate, due reason developmental retardation to the social and economic
reasons.
Arabs lived in a desert environment, adopted where the springs explosive, although
not exist they need to search for water and inferred and then deduced which is known to
have the knowledge of Riyavh, which is a type of physiognomy as they need to
search for
some of the Numerology's to indicate the presence of water, usually what relied on sensing
soil moisture, or sniff the smell, and smell the plants, and animal control to deduce the
existence, and after discovering, they developed the tools and equipment for drilling and
then Ensnarement to take advantage of this water Accumulated inside the earth, and they
succeeded in that and have made great progress in making the necessary tools for lifting,
and then slitting traction channels, as well as managed to build dams to trap rainfall,
Riyavh was the science took a great importance in their lives.
