Indira Gandhi Nahar Priyojana (IGNP) is one of the largest canal systems of the world. It irrigates 1.543million hectares of arid desert lands of north western Rajasthan. The farmers of command harvested good yields of crop for long time. After two decades of the introduction of canal irrigation, the problem of water logging and soil Stalinization starts in IGNP command. The twin problem not only adversely affected crop production in canal command but also created ecological problems. On the contrary, water scarcity due to adoption of high water requiring crop was noted in the command.
