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.

Emphasizes that the diagnostic analysis is only the first step in the development process. Presents some general methodologies that are used in the research phase. Lastly, it reviews the status of on-farm research in irrigated farming systems. Concludes that a greater emphasis should be placed on developing the on-farm irrigation research methodologies that are needed to progress more effectively into the research phase.
