Correlations between Pumping Rate to Irrigated Area and Rainfall Amount in a Paddy Field

논관개 양수량의 관개면적과 강수량과의 관계

This study was to analyse the correlations between pumping rate to irrigated area and rainfall amount in the Geum river basins. A total of 84 pumping stations and field data from the paddy of 28,772 ha were introduced to the analysis. The results showed that the pumping volume was highly correlated to the rainfall during the irrigation period and irrigated area. But, it was difficult to determine the exact correlation factors, because of the lack of data like the efficiency of water in the paddy field.
