The book reviews alternative approaches to pre-sanction appraisal of irrigation projects such as those suggested by the Second Irrigation Commission, the World Bank and UNIDO. Details of alternative methodologies and social benefit cost analysis (SBCA) of various technical alternatives have been presented by using the Auranga Reservoir Project in Bihar as an illustration. A computer programme in Fortran 1V has been included as a useful tool for performing necessary appraisals and sensitivity analysis.

The importance of managing water once it arrives at the farm site is the central issue in this report. The study limits its focus to the technical side of on-farm water management.

The Ganges-Kobadak (G-K) Project is the largest surface irrigation system in Bangladesh. The study evaluated the performance of the system keeping in mind the objectives of the project to (1) increase food production, (2) control floods, (3) improve the drainage system of the area, (4) improve cropping patterns and intensity, and (5) improve the socio-economic conditions of the farmers. The methodology followed was an intensive survey approach. The performance parameters selected were pumping plant, conveyance, on-farm water use, and command area efficiencies; adoption of high yielding varieties and input use; and benefit-cost ratios of cropping patterns. Results indicate that pumping plant, conveyance, and kharif II command area efficiencies are relatively high, while on-farm water use and kharif I command area efficiencies were much lower. Both HYV adoption and input use were higher in 1984 than in 1983. Finally, benefit-cost ratios of selected cropping patterns ranged between 4.85 and 2.77 depending on whether recommended or farmers' management practices were followed.
