Assessment and Optimization of Water Division Pattern in Sampean Baru Irrigation Area

Abstract

Recently, agricultural production in the Sampean Baru Irrigation area has not shown optimal cropping production. The average percentage of planted areas in the first (November-February),second (March-June), and third (July-October) planting seasons for the upstream area was 93.67%; 98.02%, and 76.76%, and for the downstream area was 83.54%; 80.81%; and 89.36%. This research aims to optimize the water distribution system based on the calculation of water requirements for plants and the availability of channels to obtain the maximum planting area and amount of agricultural production. This optimization method uses a Dynamic Program with three scenarios. This calculation is based on effective rainfall, crop water requirements, and water discharge availability. Percentage of planted area obtained from the calculation in the dry year for the first, second, and third planting seasons respectively were 100%, 100%, and 90.36%. Based on the existing condition, potential profit obtained for a year is Rp. 170.08 billion. After optimization using Dynamic Program, potential profit in the dry year, normal year, and wet year are IDR 213.52 billion, IDR 215.92 billion, and IDR 228.50 billion, respectively.

Reduce Flood Losses Of Kali Tanggul Using Spatial Based Technical Approaches

“…Some parameters affect the flood vulnerability index. They consist of six parameters for exposure (rainfall intensity, topographic, closeness to the river, primary construction material for roof, walls, and floor, position of buildings to the street level, and building density), nine parameters for susceptibility (land use, type of soil, tidal range, age, gender, level of education, traffic density, income, dan livelihood), and three parameters for resilience (experience with flood, knowledge about flood hazard, and knowledge about private protection measures) [1] [2]. In general, efforts to minimize the threat of flooding done by building dams [3],embankments [4], [5], shortcuts, or other flood control buildings.…”

Mengurangi Resiko Banjir Pada Sungai Bruno Kediri dengan Konstruksi Bendung

“…Hal tersebut juga akan berdampak pada kesinambungan dan kelestarian lingkungan hidup [10]. Pengelolaan sumber daya air dapat dilakukan dengan pembuatan infrastruktur bangunan air seperti bendung, embung, bendungan [11][12] [13]. Bendung merupakan salah satu bangunan air yang berfungsi untuk meninggikan muka air sungai dan mengarahkan atau mengalihkan sebagian air ke tepi kanan sungai dan tepi kiri sungai dengan cara mengalirkan ke saluran melalui bangunan jaringan.…”
