Abstract

ABSTRACT The rupture of the Nova Kakhovka dam on 6 June 2023, resulted in the termination of water distribution to southern Ukraine and Crimea, affecting 750 000 ha of farmland that relied on irrigation. The Kakhov irrigation system serves as a case study to demonstrate the organisation of crop rotation and the economic viability of irrigated farming. We also consider the potentials of future agricultural development in the region and a novel conceptual strategy for water management and changes in irrigation methods to conserve energy and resources.
