The paper analyses some of the tools which will be needed to make the management of irrigation systems less of an art and more of a science. The paper is divided into four parts: (1) performance criteria in irrigation management; (2) techniques by means of which performance might be monitored for large-scale irrigation systems; (3) diagnostic tools required for irrigation management and their desirable characteristics; and (4) management tools available for analyzing interventions to improve irrigation performance.

The NCAER study is primarily concerned with the empirical measurement of the contribution of irrigation to agricultural productivity, cropping pattern, expansion of cropped area and aggregate production. An econometric model is built to integrate individual contributions of irrigation to productivity, cropping pattern and cropped area, and to obtain an overall measure of the contribution to agricultural production. The model also helps in ranking, irrigation and fertilizer in order of their importance. The econometric model can be restricted to obtain similar results with regard to other inputs.

This report describes the characteristics of the irrigation system in the old lands, various interventions that were tested by the project and recommendations to improve irrigation water use and management. In addition a list of the technical reports produced by the project is given. This report was the basis for the National Conference held from 18-20 March, 1984 where the findings and recommendations of the project were discussed in detail by approximately 150 Egyptian irrigation and agricultural specialists.

Examples are drawn from the Indus Basin to explain why on-farm water management problems restrict the output of agricultural products in many LDCs. Data are presented to illustrate the low level of water management knowledge of both the farmers and the current extension agents. Examples of the level of corruption and its effect on the operating system are illustrated. Several requirements that must be met before a large-scale irrigation scheme will actually increase the welfare of LDC farmers are presented.
