(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: P 1227 Record No: H02222)
This report sets out to provide an account of the attempts by some groups of landless in Bangladesh, with the support of PROSHIKA, to create and sell irrigation water to cultivators engaged in the production of HYV Boro rice. The general conclusion is that sufficient success has been achieved to warrant its consideration as a general contributor to rural agrarian development in Bangladesh. At the same time, problems and failures also exist which need to be carefully examined to see whether they are inherent features of the general principles involved in landless irrigation activity, or whether they can be attributed to specific causes which can be identified beforehand and therefore, avoided in any replication of the programme.

The book reviews current and internationally accepted and compatible methods for describing agricultural environments (topography, terrain, soil, weather, climate, hydrology, vegetation and socio-economic circumstances); and using the results to advance development in agriculture and in the rural space in the poorer nations of the world. ; It contains the papers and summaries of the discussions at an authoritative international consultation organised in 1986 by the International Agricultural Research Centres with the support of FAO and the cooperation of WMO. Though it is directed in the first place to the needs of the developing nations, the concepts, purposes, methods and applications are relevant to all environments.
