Özet
Energy is one of the most important inputs for pressurized irrigation systems in the world's agriculture sector. As in all areas of life, energy used in irrigation has become an important research subject for researchers. In studies performed with performance indicators in Turkiye, the use of energy indicators is limited. The scarcity of energy resources makes the efficiency of energy used in irrigation schemes extremely important. This study evaluated the performance of a pressurized irrigation scheme with water, energy and financial indicators in Yozgat. The data obtained were compared with other countries in the Mediterranean region. As a result, it was concluded that, on average, the irrigation rate was 39%, annual irrigation water supply per unit irrigated area was 8229 m3 ha-1, specific energy was 0.33 kWh m-3, energy consumed per unit irrigated was 2671 kWh ha-1, total maintenance, operation and management cost per unit irrigation water supply was 403 euro ha-1 in the years (2008-2017) when the study was conducted. The finding showed that the specific energy value was about three times lower than in other countries. However, when the energy consumed per unit in the irrigated area was examined, it was found that the irrigation scheme has a high consumption of energy.
