<br/><br/> In many of the countries irrigated agriculture is considered to be the main culprit of water scarcity because of mismanagement. Judicious use <br/>of water to maximize the crop productionis the key for management. This is achieved through system analysis and optimization. In most of the <br/>perennial rivers the reservoirs play a vital role in management of water. Creation of a reservoir is a costly affair hence is to be planned <br/>sis  on  maximization  of  the  crop  yield  in  its <br/>commanded  area.  For  the  optimal  operation  lots  of  mathematical  programming  techniques  are  in  practice.  In  recent  times  meta-heuristic <br/>heuristic optimization technique and has <br/>been  used  effectively  in  reservoir  problems.  The  main  purpose  of  the  paper  is  to  demonstrate  the  potential  of  HSA  to  optimize  regulation <br/>timally  in  various  fortnights  amongst  different  crops.  An  irrigation  reservoir  in....
