ARISTA-CORTES, Juan; GONZALEZ-CAMACHO, Juan M.  and  OJEDA-BUSTAMANTE, Waldo. A recursive algorithm to improve the integration of the daily irrigation water demand of a distribution network. Agrociencia [online]. 2009, vol.43, n.8, pp.841-850. ISSN 2521-9766.

The administration of water distribution in the irrigation districts represents an essential activity for optimizing the quality and opportunity of the irrigation service to users. This activity involves the processing of large volumes of hydrometric information using informatic tools. This investigation presents the structure and implementation of a recursive algorithm to carry out the integration of daily water demand at different operation levels of the distribution network of an irrigation module. The algorithm was incorporated to the informatic system of administration of the distribution of irrigation water, denominated SIGE-MR. The algorithm was tested and validated with hydrometric data of the Santa Rosa module of irrigation district 075 El Fuerte, Sinaloa, México. The proposed solution permits the improvement of reliability and integrity of the process of integration of daily water demand in a distribution network.

Keywords : Administration system; irrigation service; operation efficiency.
