Groundwater represents a vitally important resource for Bangladesh for its irrigation development. Great efforts are now underway to increase irrigated acreage by employing a mix of three major types of tubewell systems--deep, shallow and hand tubewells. This paper attempts to analyze the past trends of development of groundwater irrigation as well as a number of relevant policy issues to the groundwater development for irrigation, such as the gap between the potential and actual use of the capacity of the different tubewell systems; The rate of groundwater withdrawal that can be sustained on a long term basis; The recently adopted "privatization" policy of the government ; And the choice of scale in the promotion of the different types of tube well systems. Finally, a number of areas with problems are identified and immediate actions needed to solve these problems are understood.

The paper discusses the interrelationship of design (and construction), operation, and performance of irrigation systems. Specifically, it (1) describes the farm-level effects of design (and construction) and operation on the performance of irrigation systems; (2) identifies the factors leading to ineffective use of farm-level facilities by farmers; and (3) recommends additional criteria for the design and operation of irrigation systems. Arguments from Philippine case studies that evaluated alternative designs of farm-level facilities and approaches to improve equity in water allocation and distribution in a modern traditionally designed run-of-the-river, reservoir-backed, and pump-based irrigation systems are used. The general conclusion is that in both the traditional and modern systems, improvements in water management at the main system can improve water distribution equity and increase irrigated area as well as crop yield. But improved management in the main system often becomes difficult, if not impossible, because of some technical inadequacies due to deficient irrigation system design and construction.
