Abstract :
Sprinkler irrigation as one of the most suitable methods for increasing the irrigation efficiency, is faced with some operational problems and challenges among agronomists of Iran. The goal of present article is to understand the problems, difficulties and challenges of modern irrigation methods in rural regions of Fars province, Bavanat, in Iran. Geographic area of this analytic-descriptive research involves the study of 15 villages of the study area. Consequently, the population of the study consists of all farmers of Sarchahan region in Fars province (N= 776) of which 257 farmers were selected randomly among this population as the sample of study by means of Cochran formula. A vast range of indicators of economic, social and technical dimensions were determined by a series of documentary studies and field visits. Results were analyzed by means of T-single-sample method using SPSS software. The results show that the maximum range of difficulties and challenges in the files of modern irrigation methods refer to economic problems (3.47%) and the minimum refer to social dimensions (2.81%). Also the results show that the farmers of some villages like Aboo-Nasr, Siahoo, and Shahrak Al-Zahra are facing with the most problems and difficulties( 3.28) and the farmers of Shahzadeh Abolghasem, Ahl Kooh, and Soofian are facing with the minimum problems( 3.03%, 3.01%, 2.95% respectively) to implement the pressurized irrigation.
