Abstract: The paper examines the water-use efficiency and economic worth of investment in sprinkler, drip and surface irrigation systems in Haryana using the primary data. The results have indicated considerable savings in water from sprinkler and drip irrigation methods. The sprinkler irrigation method has also been found to reduce operational costs as well as labour requirements. Using different project evaluation criteria, it has been suggested that it is worth to invest in the sprinkler and drip irrigation systems.
