Abstract
Irrigation/drainage systems, like all other systems, have physical limitations that they must be adapted to. Therefore, the objectives of this study are as follows: 1) Determine the overall ability of the irrigation/drainage system to perform as a crop production facility, taking into account drainage as well as irrigation benefits. 2) Establish a range of water table depths at which crop production is maximum which will help in establishing criteria for system design. 3) Test the effects of a static (constant) vs. fluctuating water table management practice.
