Indigenous method of Drip Irrigation devised by a farmer in Madhya Pradesh

The installation of drip irrigation system cost around Rs 1.25 lakh per hectare.The cost for maintenance is also high.This type of system incurs water to the crop in drip manner so that soil moisture can be kept at optimum level most of the time.

A farmer in Madhya Pradesh has reduced the cost of drip irrigation to about Rs.2500 by using saline bottles as droppers,a storage tank to store water and some plastic pipes for bringing the water to the dripper.

Such innovative applications of waste materials can save money as well as reduce the necessity of disposal which is now a big issue in the western world.

Master TOPSIS to operationalise multi-criteria trade‑offs using distance‑to‑ideal reasoning and transparent rankings.

1.TOPSIS is best described as A single-objective optimization method for continuous design variables A compensatory MCDM method for ranking finite alternatives across multiple criteria A simulation technique for stochastic hydrologic models A clustering algorithm for grouping similar alternatives 2.In TOPSIS, the Positive Ideal Solution (PIS) represents The alternative with the smallest Euclidean norm in the decision space A hypothetical alternative with the best performance on every criterion The real alternative that appears first in the decision matrix The average of all alternatives over all criteria 3.The Negative Ideal Solution (NIS) in TOPSIS is The worst-performing actual alternative in the dataset A hypothetical alternative with the worst value of each criterion The alternative with the largest index in the matrix The alternative that violates the most constraints 4.For benefit-type criteria (to be maximized), the PIS component is taken as The minimum observed val...

What will the future of AI and ML modeling of water resource development look like?

AI & ML modeling application is now widespread in water resource development studies. But due to the uncertainty in water parameters, much more innovation is required for their practical applications In recent years like all the other fields of studies, the application of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI&ML) on water resource development projects has increased manifold.
