Spatial analysis of Agricultural Productivity by Irrigation in Kyaukse Township

The analyses were based on the area of discarding Yeyaman Range and unirrigated area. The remaining irrigated and irrigable area is only 1/3 of the total township area. Due to the study area lies in the central dry zone of Myanmar, insufficient and irregular rainfall may cause the failure cultivation or low productivity though the other physical conditions (such as topography, drainage system, soil, temperature) and other fertilizer consumption are favourable for various crops. By using irrigation method, the agricultural productivity will increase yearly. The result of the correlation analyses bring about the important of some variables indicating soil and socio-economic characteristics and their association with the productivity of selected crops. Among them only the fact that nearness to the water sources has more effects on the crop productivity
