IRRIGATION
AND DRAINAGE
|
 Irrigation
and Drainage is the official journal of the International Commission on
Irrigation and Drainage (ICID). The objectives of the ICID are to advance
the science and art of irrigation, drainage and flood management. ICID Journal
is a prestigious peer-reviewed publication and enables ICID to accomplish
its objectives of publishing original papers on scientific, engineering
and socio-economic issues associated with irrigation and drainage in a clear,
concise and uniform style that is easily understood by an international
audience. ICID has almost sixty years of experience in the promotion and
transfer of water and land management technology and related issues.
ICID
Journal plays an important role as the world struggles to meet the food
demands of a rapidly growing population. It is a publication that directly
addresses the management of water resources for agriculture and flood
control. The potential impact of the Journal on the transfer of technology
is large as is its potential for continued success. Formerly, this used
to be published as ICID Bulletin since 1952. Its title has since been
changed to ICID Journal since 1995. ICID Journal was presented in two
issues upto 1998. ICID has brought out 3 issues in 1999. In 2000 the ICID
Journal became a quarterly publication. Since March 2001 the Journal has
been renamed as "IRRIGATION
AND DRAINAGE - Managing Water for Sustainable Agriculture - The Journal
of the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage"
and is published by M/s. John Wiley & Sons Ltd under full editorial
responsibility of ICID. Since 2005 the Journal is published in five issues
per year. The Journal is listed in the ISI citation index. The 2007 impact
factor is 0.598. |
| Articles for Irrigation and Drainage have to be uploaded in the Manuscript Central System of Wiley-Blackwell. The address is: http://www.interscience.wiley.com/journal/ird. The web site contains all relevant information with respect to Irrigation and Drainage, including authors instructions. |
