Question

Statement I: A surface irrigation event is composed of four phases namely, advance phase, storage phase, depletion phase and recession phase.
Statement II: In recession phase of surface irrigation, the depth of water applied to any point in the field is a function of opportunity time, length of time for which water is present on soil surface.
In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
• B. Both Statement I and Statement II are false
• C. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
• D. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Hint:

Surface irrigation phases:
Advance \(\rightarrow\) Storage \(\rightarrow\) Depletion \(\rightarrow\) Recession.
Opportunity time determines infiltration.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
