This paper speculates on factors influencing priorities in water-related research, suggests complementary and corrective approaches, and presents examples of the sort of priorities which might emerge from using them. The values underlying judgement in the paper concern improving the levels of living of the people, especially the poorer people, in rural areas of the third world. Throughout "research" includes Research and Development (R and D), and the "natural sciences" are the physical and biological sciences.

This study of irrigation management and crop diversification is being carried out under a Technical Assistance Agreement (T. A. No: 846 SRI) dated 27 November 1987, between the Government of Sri Lanka (GSL), the International Irrigation Management Institute (IIMI), and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The study is being implemented by IIMI in the Kirindi Oya and Uda Walawe projects in the southern part of Sri Lanka in close collaboration with the agencies in charge of development and management of these projects. It addresses, through field-level research, priority issues of importance and relevance to the two projects in the processes of irrigation system management, with particular attention given to the requirements of crop diversification.
