This book includes multi-disciplinary quantifications of the effect of climate change on water requirements of wheat maize rice and sugarcane. Furthermore it provides on-farm management that faces water scarcity under current situation and under climate change. Changing cultivation method (raised beds instead of furrows or basins) or increasing irrigation application efficiency (sprinkler or drip systems instead of surface irrigation) can reduce the applied water. Irrigated agriculture although profitable it endures wasteful use of valuable water resources. Taking into account the risk of climate change developing countries like Egypt will highly suffer. Furthermore the effect of intercropping (two crops use the applied water to one of them) and or using crop rotations (arrange crops to reduce the applied water increase water productivity and sustain soil fertility) on production and consumed irrigation water by crops were comprehensively analyzed.
