Diseño del reservorio y el sistema de líneas de distribución, para el riego parcelario en la comunidad Unión y Trabajo perteneciente a la parroquia Mulalillo del cantón Salcedo provincia de Cotopaxi

Abstract

The objective of this technical project is to calculate the volume of the reservoir and determine the irrigation distribution lines of the Unión y Trabajo Community of the Mulalillo parish, for which a meeting was held with the community leaders in order to give know the work that was going to be done and in this way have the openness towards the realization of the project. In a previous inspection, the boundaries of the community were delimited and with the topographic survey the area of each lot that needs to be irrigated was determined, in addition, the existing irrigation channels and roads were surveyed to establish the optimal conduction of the distribution line where the connections of each lot will be placed. The area to be irrigated has a total of 171.28 Ha, in this way the reservoir volume of 1289 m3 was determined for the 226 users, taking into account the dry season and thus ensuring water for irrigation of crops. As a topographic result of the sector, the community will have 3 main distribution lines supplied from the same reservoir and each user will have an irrigation shift whose compliance will be directed by the Directive, avoiding setbacks due to its misuse.
