This paper records objectively the historical development, implementation, and management of Pakistan's Salinity Control and Reclamation Projects (SCARPs). Field and management data from SCARP-I, SCARP-II, and Khaipur SCARP are used in the analysis. Direct economic feasibility of the SCARPs is considered and compared with that of private tubewell development.

The paper presents a case study of an irrigation management system from the Hunza Valley in northern Pakistan where local farmers have been tapping glacial melt from the Ultor Glacier to irrigate terraced fields since 1880. Two major changes in the irrigation management system are described to illustrate the flexibility and dynamics of institutional roles to cope with changing conditions in this common property situation. A private development agency, the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme (AKRSP), entered the arena in 1983 and is supporting construction of a new irrigation channel to supplement existing water resources. The nature of this intervention is analyzed in light of the pre-existing irrigation system. The final section attempts to derive some implications from the case for development theory.
