Duty:
It is the area of land that can be irrigated with a unit volume of water supplied across the base period. It is generally expressed in hectare/cumec.
Delta:
It is the depth of water required to a crop over a unit area across the base period for full growth of the crop. It is generally expressed in cm or m.
Calculation:
Given:
Dicharge (Q) = 3 cumec
Area of land (A) = 5100 hectare
Than, duty = 5100/3 = 1700 hectare/cumec
For delta:
Water depth = 10 cm
Number of watering = 12
Then, delta = 12 x 10 = 120 cm
