ABSTRACT:
For sound land use and water management in irrigated area,
knowledge of the chemical composition of soils, water, climate,
drainage condition and irrigation methods before action are
crucial for sustainability of irrigation projects. The study
aimed to evaluate the physicochemical properties soils and water
for intended irrigation scheme with reference to standard
suitability classes. With this regard a study was conducted in
Awash River basin at Fursa small scale irrigation scheme
in Northeastern Ethiopia. Soil samples were collected from bore
holes of three soil mapping units of study site across depth and
water samples were taken from irrigation water with plastic
bottles for analysis of range of physical and chemical
properties. The results of the analysis reveal the existence of
potential sodicity not only in the soil but also in the
irrigation water. The study underlines the need for selection of
salt tolerant crops and good water management by using
appropriate irrigation methods to sustain productivity of soil
in the proposed irrigation site. This has significant
contribution to decide type of crop to be produced and
appropriate irrigation methods for sustainability of soil
productivity.

Abstract:
Basics of Geoscope is proposed and designed by me in 1987 for
unraveling the mysteries of the earth's underground, studying
the mechanism of geological hazards and predict geological
hazards just like earthquakes etc. by constantly studying the
Geoscope, exploring the underground resources and exercising the
benefits of mankind and development of the earth sciences.
Similarly, some research indicates that there is a strong
correlation between climate change and geological hazards such
as earthquakes. For this, I designed the Basics of Global
Monsoon Time Scales to predict the climate change and natural
calamities in advance. Geological hazards such as earthquakes
can be studied by developing the Geoscope system, By developing
the Monsoon Time Scales, metrological hazards such as heavy
rains and floods and droughts and famines can be studied. In
this paper, Geoscopes and Global Monsoon Time Scales will be
discussed, as well as let's look at the relationship between
underground changes and climate changes and natural calamities.

Abstract –
The
article is devoted to assessing the impact of the Toktogul
reservoir based on variability of the annual flow of the Naryn
River. Toktogul Reservoir is the largest reservoir in Central
Asia; its construction began in 1962 and was completed in 1975.
The reservoir's total (designed) water capacity is 19.5 km3,
and the useful volume is 14.0 km3.
In
the study, special attention is paid to the study of the
influence of the conditions of the reservoir used in the
irrigation and energy regimes on the river flow.
Statistical indicator of the river flow variability –
coefficient of variation (Cv) was determined for
three calculation periods. The value of the variation
coefficient of the annual flow of the Naryn River for the
natural water regime, i.e., accounting period I (1930-1974), was
equal to Cv=0.22. During accounting period II
(1975-1994), when the Toktogul reservoir was operated in the
irrigation mode, the variation coefficient of the annual flow of
the Naryn River was equal to Cv=0.24.
It was determined that the value of the variation coefficient
calculated for accounting period III (1995-2020), when the
Toktogul reservoir operated in the energy mode, was equal to Cv=0.10.
As a result, it has been shown that the value of the variation
coefficient of Naryn River flow has decreased with the
transition of the water reservoir from irrigation mode to energy
mode operation.

Abstract:
The article investigates formation and normal activity of human
capital
which performs main resource of modern economic development and
influence of external financing in
the field of food security, which acts as the main part of
economy of Azerbaijan that newly got independence. Roles of
subsidy, microfinancing and loans were examined. It is confirmed
Ntional Fund for Entrepreneurship Support
(NFES) of the Republic that allocated the agricultural sector
production and processing of loans, provision of bank loans to
the agricultural sector. Under the influence of the economic
performance of the agricultural sector development trends of the
loan were based on the economic and mathematical models and
charts were drawn. By the time forecasts were prepared it became
clear that loans, especially state finance support depend on oil
sphere.
