N2  - Since the surface irrigation methods have been used more in Turkey, the amount of water consumed is almost 10 000 m3/ha. Less than 50 % of this water is used by crops. Drip irrigation which is one of the pressurized irrigation systems save water from 30 % through 70 %. In addition, it increases the yield and quality of crops. To produce the seed-cotton, corn, and dry hay of alfalfa of 1 kg using surface irrigation, the amount of irrigation water of 2800, 943-1284, 1200 L require, respectively. However, the amount of water of 1333 and 474 L are needed by drip irrigation for cotton and corn, respectively. For alfalfa, only amount of water of 535 L is sufficient to produce hay of 1 kg using moving sprinkler irrigation system. These results must be considered in terms of sustainability of soil and water resources. Thus, use of the pressurized irrigation systems has recently increased. Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in Turkey have compensated 50 % of the all investment cost for the pressurized irrigation systems since 2006. In addition, the farmers who want to construct the pressurized irrigation systems have been used the credits with zero interest for 5 years. By October 2009, the farmers of 58 196 have received 799.5 million TL with zero interest for the land of 176 600 ha. In addition, the government has given donation of 101 million TL for the land of 46 000 ha. The financial supports and donations have provided in increasing of the irrigated area by the pressurized irrigation. In this article effects of the surface and pressurized irrigation on soil and water resources, and the impacts of the financial supports in increasing of irrigation systems are discussed
