International Commission on Irrigation & Drainage (ICID)

Best Paper Award

The ICID Journal ‘Irrigation and Drainage’ is the flagship publication of ICID. The journal is a prestigious, peer-reviewed publication, publishing original papers on scientific, engineering, environmental and socio-economic issues associated with irrigation and drainage. It is a rich resource of reference to professionals, engineers, researchers, university professors and students of irrigation, drainage, and agriculture disciplines. Its management is governed by an International Editorial Board (EB). 'Best Paper Award' was started in 2006 to recognise the outstanding papers contributed to ‘Irrigation and Drainage’, annually. The award consists of a citation plaque and either US$ 500 cash or US$ 800 worth of Wiley books from M/s. Wiley Blackwell (UK). To submit your article, click here.
