What is Diversion Based Irrigation Management? DBI?... Home

A diversion based irrigation system diverts a portion of water from a natural source like spring/ mountainous stream or any Water Harvesting Structure and uses it with or without intermediate storage for the purpose of irrigating crops. The system consists of three main components namely inlet/storage structure, conduit for conveying water to the farm from the inlet and an outlet for discharging water into field.

All surface flow irrigation schemes which are exclusively based on irrigation by gravity flow could be covered under this theme.  It can be broadly classified in three categories namely flow, storage and lift based DBI.
