| Abstract | The definition of effective precipitation, that was originally defined in upland field and at farm level, was improved for the application to the water management at project level for rice irrigation, or to the design of season-to-season carry over reservoir. The effectivity of precipitation or the relation between precipitation in commanded area and supplied water was analyzed on the basis of the screened records of the well-maintained project in Taiwan. Screening the records was done by considering the amount of available water at that moment that caused over-or under-release for demand. As a result of this study, 10, SO and 70 percentage of precipitation can be considered to be effective in nor mal years, corresponding for the stage of nursery bed, the stage of land preparation and transplantation and the other following stage respectively. |
