The aim of this research is to quantify the water needs of the crops, irrigation performance indicators and the irrigation potential achieved at the Samrakalwana village at Allahabad. The actual and potential evapotranspiration along with the irrigation water demands for all crops grown throughout the year in the village were estimated. The Delivery Performance Ratio, Depleted Fraction, Field Application Ratio, Relative Water Supply, and irrigation potential were estimated. The temporal variation in water availability at the irrigated area is successfully demonstrated for each performance indicator. The irrigation potential achieved for the canal irrigated village was found to be 66.6%. The study reveals the rainfall is ignored while determining water requirement of the irrigated area. Canal water does not reach to all agricultural plots. The study also reveals that irrigation performance indicators can be used successfully to evaluate the performance of a canal irrigated village. It also indicates the level of efficiency of water delivery services in the entire Cultural Command Area of which this village is a part.

The alluvial soil brought by them has made their banks and adjoining plains so fertile that our country would never run short of food and fodder. Atmost all the ancient civilizations grew on the banks of life sustaining rivers. Rivers have been a valued part of earth's landscapes ~or a long lime. Man selected banks of river for living because these were a source of fresh water and it is almost right to say that life cannot exist without water. These have been the agents of transportation in both the hydrologic and the geologic cycles. The present day values of river include the use of their water for agriculture, industry, recreation and domestic supply.
