Dear Abraham, This phD thesis gives you an accurate idea of what spate irrigation is, through a concrete case study (in Eritrea): http://library.wur.nl/WebQuery/wurpubs/fulltext/199032 It is from 2001, but the principle remains the same, except for all new technologies which came in between, for water retention, as an example. Good luck, Laurent H. Selles
