Abstract

Irrigation infrastructure is a major supporting factor in order to improve the welfare of farmers, especiallythrough the agricultural sector. This can be achieved if the irrigation infrastructure functions optimally. The physicalcondition of the infrastructure must be maintained its function so that the optimization of the function can still bemaintained. In meeting water needs for various farming purposes, the capacity of water for irrigation must be given in theright amount, time and quality, if this is not fulfilled, the plant will be affected by growth which in turn affectsagricultural production. The long-term objective of this research is expected to later produce a performance assessment asa reference in the optimization of irrigation infrastructure through improvement / rehabilitation activities. For that shorttermpurpose in this study Pumping test is a method of measuring water discharge from observing the continuity of watersources and the availability of water from the source itself. The main point of the pumping test is the comparisonbetween the decrease in water level when pumping against the increase in water level during recovery. Knowing theresults of this study is expected to produce data and information to formulate policies (in this case the local governmentor related departments) in managing irrigation networks and the environment that have a direct impact on the localcommunity. This research method begins with a survey and field review conducted by groundwater irrigation networksin Gowa district. then measuring the discharge at the pump house. Record and take photos as research documentation.Measurement of debit, collection of primary data and secondary data and data processing. Data processing here is theprocess of processing data, so that the data is ready to be analyzed. The results of measurement of debit and pumpingtests from the Groundwater Irrigation Network (JIAT) were obtained in the form of the latest data (updated) so that itcould be used as a reference for the maintenance process of future groundwater irrigation networks.
