Water and Nutrient Balance of Paddy Field Irrigated from a Pumping Station

A field monitoring study was carried out to investigate the water balance and losses of nutrients from paddy fields in Sumjin river basin. The size of paddy fields was 115 ha and the fields were irrigated from a pumping station. The runoff loading was the highest in June because of the high concentrations of nutrients due to applied fertilizer. The surface runoff losses of T-N and T-P in runoff water were 53.4 to 68.3kg/ha(average 59.7kg/ha) and 0.38 to 2.20kg/ha(average 1.42kg/ha), respectively. When the runoff losses of nutrients were compared to applied chemical fertilizer, it was found that 42% to 60% of nitrogen lost via runoff while runoff losses of phosphorus account for 3.0% to 17.2% of the total applied amount during entire year.
