Abstract

Bu çalışma, 2018-2019 yılları arasında Sudan'da toprak-su kaynaklarının dağılımını ve kullanımını incelemiş ve Hartum Eyaleti'ndeki sulama kooperatiflerine odaklanmıştır. Hartum Eyaleti'ni temsil etmek üzere kamu kurumları envanterinden on kooperatif seçilmiştir. Toprak-su mevcudiyeti, enerji tüketimi, pompa debisi ve çalışma süresi, teorik su çekimi ve birim alan ve su hacmi başına enerji harcamaları hakkında veriler toplanmıştır. Bulgular, Sudan'ın ekilebilir arazisinin 112 milyon hektar olarak tahmin edildiğini ve bunun sadece %18,6'sının ekili alan olarak kullanıldığını ortaya koymaktadır. Sulanan arazi, ekili alanın %9'unu (1,9 milyon hektar) oluşturmaktadır. Hartum Eyaleti'nin 756.000 hektarlık tarımsal potansiyeli vardır, ancak bunun sadece %19,4'ü (147.000 hektar) yıllık olarak kullanılmaktadır. Kayıtlı 203 kooperatiften 45'i (%22,17) aktif, 36'sı (%17,73) pasif ve 122'sine (%60,10) henüz arazi tahsis edilmemiştir. Toplam kayıtlı kooperatif alanı 66.780,45 hektar olup, aktif kooperatifler 35.390,07 hektarlık ( %52,99) bir alanı kapsamaktadır. 2018 yılında, incelenen on kooperatifteki pompa istasyonlarının toplam elektrik tüketimi 1.693.306 kWh olmuştur. Pompa gücü 22 kW (Al Hamdab ve El Neya) ile 255 kW (Al Bagair El Ailafon, Al Jamuiye ve Wad Ramli) arasında değişmiştir. Toplam enerji ücretleri yıllık 76.016 ABD doları olup, en yüksek ücreti Al Jamuiye (33.333 ABD doları/yıl), en düşük ücreti ise Seyal Al Hawab (333 ABD doları/yıl) ödemiştir. Yıllık pompa çalışma süresi 4.105 saat (Al Hamdab) ile sadece 58 saat (Seyal Al Hawab) arasında değişmiştir. Teorik olarak yıllık çekilen su miktarı 15.646.858 m³ olup, en yüksek hacimler Al Khojalab'da (5,61 milyon m³), ​​Al Jamuiye'de (4,5 milyon m³) ve Wad Ramli'de (2,16 milyon m³) kaydedilmiştir. Metreküp başına ortalama enerji maliyeti 0,0067 dolardır. Çalışma, Sudan'da sürdürülebilir sulama tarımı için sulama kooperatiflerinin karşılaştığı yasal, mali, teknik ve yönetimsel sorunların ele alınmasının şart olduğu sonucuna varmıştır.

Estimating Irrigation Operation Costs and Assessing Irrigation System Performance for Sudan's Khartoum State Irrigation Cooperatives

Abstract

This study was conducted between 2018-2019, examined the distribution and utilization of soil-water resources in Sudan, focusing on irrigation cooperatives in Khartoum State. Ten cooperatives were selected from public institution inventory to represent Khartoum State. Data were collected on soil-water availability, energy consumption, pump flow rate and operation time, theoretical water withdrawal, and energy expenditures per unit area and water volume. Findings reveal that Sudan’s arable land is estimated at 112 million ha, with only 18.6% under cultivation. Irrigated land accounts for 9% (1.9 million ha) of cultivated area. Khartoum State has an agricultural potential of 756,000 ha, yet only 19.4% (147,000 ha) is utilized annually. Of 203 registered cooperatives, 45 (22.17%) are active, 36 (17.73%) inactive, and 122 (60.10%) have not yet been allocated land. The total registered cooperative area is 66,780.45 ha, with active cooperatives covering 35,390.07 ha (52.99%). In 2018, total electricity consumption by pump stations in the ten studied cooperatives was 1,693,306 kWh. Pump power ranged from 22 kW (Al hamdab and El neye) to 255 kW (Al bagair El ailafon, Al jamuiye, and Wad Ramli). Total energy fees amounted to $76,016/year, with Al jamuiye paying the highest ($33,333/year) and Seyal Al hawab the lowest ($333/year). Annual pump operating time varied from 4,105 hours (Al hamdab) to just 58 hours (Seyal Al hawab). The theoretical annual water withdrawn was 15,646,858 m³, with the highest volumes in Al Khojalab (5.61 million m³), Al jamuiye (4.5 million m³), and Wad Ramli (2.16 million m³). The average energy cost per cubic meter of water was $0.0067. The study concludes that addressing legal, financial, technical, and management issues facing irrigation cooperatives is essential for sustainable irrigated agriculture in Sudan.
