摘要：The study was conducted to assess the performance of Kalwande Minor Irrigation Scheme (KMIS) in Chiplun, Ratnagiri district of Maharashtra using various indicators such as output per unit cropped area and water consumed, related to production with land and water. Relative water supply (RWS), irrigation supply (RIS) and water delivery capacity (WDC), related to water supply from the system with crop water demand and financial self sufficiency (FSS) related with collection of fees from water users in the command area. In this study, the performance indicators in Kalwande Minor Irrigation Scheme were determined for year 2013-14; the results were discussed and evaluated. The analysis of agricultural performance indicators showed that the production value of different crops grown in command area were lower than that of the recommended package of practices. The analysis of water use indicators showed that RWS and RIS were calculated as 2.49 and 1.27 respectively indicating the condition of water abundance. The value RWS and RIS was more than one represents that the total water supply is enough to meet the crop demand. The WDC for whole Kalwande command was calculated as 7.1 represents the canal capacity was sufficient to meet the peak consumptive requirement. The analysis of economic or financial indicators showed that the scheme had a serious problem about the collection of water fees i.e. revenue or irrigation charges collected from scheme were less than that of total operation and maintenance expenditures.
