The paper is concerned with the development and use of general approaches for irrigation management that are not specific to any irrigation system and can be applied in a broad range of situations. It attempts to (1) clarify the concept of an irrigation management methodology; (2) examine to what extent methodologies are available and used in practice in the management of irrigation systems around the world; and (3) explore research needs and draw lessons which may be employed in the development of improved methodologies. The focus of the paper is on large-scale, publicly administered irrigation systems such as those prevalent in much of South and Southeast Asia.

Irrigation will continue to get very high priority in strategies to increase food production and labor absorption in agriculture. But plans for irrigation investment in South and Southeast Asia are being made with too little attention to diagnosing the causes of the generally disappointing performance of large, publicly-operated canal systems. One set of causes, which the authors argue here are very important, are simply not considered; they are 'screened out' from consideration from the very beginning. The remedies are hence unlikely to have the effects expected of them.
