Project Goals and Outcomes

Enhance irrigation efficiency across agricultural lands Control natural drainage and prevent soil salinity Maximize use of surface and groundwater resources Support agricultural infrastructure and food security Protect water and soil from erosion and degradation

Location and Climate

Jiroft Plain is located in the southern part of Kerman Province and is part of the western Zagros catchment. Latitude: 28°15′ to 45′ Longitude: 57°30′ to 58° Elevation: approx. 1405 meters above sea level Annual rainfall: moderate to high River discharge: varies between 400 to 500 m³/s Groundwater depth: approx. 170 meters The region includes both seasonal and permanent rivers, which are essential for agricultural water supply.

Geological and Soil Features

Part of Iran’s central structural zone and Zagros sedimentary basin Influenced by tectonic processes: compression, extension, and faulting Presence of various rock types: sandstone, conglomerate, granite, diorite Intrusive and metamorphic rocks along the basin margins Ancient geological units with high permeability potential Alluvial deposits from erosion of surrounding mountains Groundwater flows from northeast to southwest Both confined and unconfined aquifers exist in the plain Confined aquifers transition to unconfined in the central zone Sediments include large rock fragments, gravel, and sand Formation of silt and clay layers in downstream areas Groundwater flow supports agriculture and ecological balance
