Pick up the correct statement from the following:
Duty of canal water is defined as the total area irrigated by the discharge averaging one unit during the base period of the duty
Duty of canal water is usually calculated at the head discharge of a channel
Duty of canal water at the head of a channel and at the outlet of a distributary, differ considerably due to progressive losses of water
Duty of canal water at the outlet of a distributary, is generally known as outlet factor or outlet discharge factor
