This study is concerned with the evaluation of medium scale irrigation projects under the 2nd IBRD loan. The objectives of the study were to analyze economic efficiency of irrigation projects, to evaluate economic and social impacts, to promote the effectiveness of investment and to derive future directions and policy implications in irrigation systems development. Among the 36 areas of the 2nd IBRD loan irrigation projects, 5 areas where the projects were already completed and have experienced farming with irrigation projects were chosen for this post-evaluation study. Sample projects consists of four pumping stations and one reservoir. A total of 300 farm households and 15 villages in the project districts were randomly selected for the study. The data were also collected from the respective four Farm Land Improvement Associations (FLIAs). The results of the survey with villages, farm households and the FLIAs were analyzed and compared with the data in case of without the Irrigation project conditions.

Describes the main problems encountered by the World Bank in financing irrigation and drainage projects and outlines the procedures which the Bank is adopting to improve performance. Delays in project execution and subsequent cost overruns are attributed to shortcomings in technical preparation, planning, procurement, and funding. Poor scheme performance is linked with deficiencies in management and operation and maintenance. The benefits of involving farmers in scheme design and of including on-farm works in projects are discussed. Gerald Lacey memorial lecture.
