The major weather parameters like temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, wind speed and sunshine hour for a period of 43 years were collected and analyzed. This was done for crop planning and to develop an appropriate irrigation scheduling for different crops. The annual rainfall record indicated that in 40.47 per cent cases the normal rainfall (average ± 19%) was received in the study area, whereas, the per cent of below normal and above normal rainfall was found as 33.33 and 26.20 per cent, respectively. The highest PET was obtained in April and the lowest in December. The maximum net irrigation requirements for Rabi and Kharif season crops were found in February, March, April, June, September, October and November months. June to September months received the highest rainfall when the rainfall was received about 86 per cent of the total amount of annual rainfall. It appears that surplus rainfall (Rainfall>PET) during mid-June to August received and it can be harvested and use in high irrigation demand months.Keywords

The essential for accurate modeling of the rainfall–runoff process has grown rapidly in the past decades. However, considering the high stochastic property of the process, many models are still being developed in order to define such a complex phenomenon. In this study, two AI-based models which are reliable in capturing the periodicity features of the process are introduced for river rainfall–runoff modeling. In the first model, the ANN model, an ANN is used to five different type training algorithms namely momentum, Quickprop, Delta-Bar-Delta, Conjugate Gradient and Levenberg Marquardt. In the second model, ANFIS model trained used to two different type membership function (MFs) viz., Gaussian and generalized bell and conventional techniques was used multiple linear regression (MLR). The artificial intelligence performed better than the conventional techniques for rainfall-runoff modelling of study area. The ANFIS models performing the best results, ANN models gives the satisfactory results and MLR model having poor result in runoff prediction for Arpa River basin. Also gamma test (GT) was used for identifying the best input combination of input variables.Keywords
