N2  - Farmer focused research has been  to identify differences in irrigation  constrains limiting wheat yield  watercourses.  conducted on wheat crop in order  practices, crop production and  at improved and unimproved  For this study, two improved and two unimproved watercourses were  selected. Irrigation farming was studied in farmers 1 field with respect  to stratification of the selected watercourses by middle and tail. Data  was collected through observations and farmers interviews on specific  wheat fields. A sample of three to five 1m x 1m plots located randomly  in the field were harvested and threshed to estimate the yields.  The results indicate that there is no differences in method of  irrigation and number of irrigations applied to wheat crop on improved  and unimproved watercourses. Quant analysis of farmers yield shows that  the main factors responsible for limiting the yields are - late sowing,  application of low dose of fertilizer and use of non recommended variety. Large size of culturable commanded area and unimproved status of  watercourse are also yield reducing factors in this area
