Abstract:
The article presents the results of practical application of water conservation technologies tested in laboratory conditions based on introduction of polymer-mineral mixtures into the soil, forming water-impermeable layers. The specified measures are carried out for the purpose of arrangement of different-scale artificial reservoirs (water reservoirs) in the field conditions of arid regions and regions of seasonal natural water inflow to lands used for agricultural purposes.
Keywords:artificial reservoirs, irrigation, water supply, water conservation, polymeric materials, mineral-polymer mixtures, construction of reservoirs, ecology.
