Year-round irrigation and multiple cropping with paddy as a dominant crop in the monsoon months have given rise to an increase in the incidence of malaria over an 18-year period in the Mahi-Kadana Irrigation Project in Gujarat State, India. Further man-made disturbances such as over- irrigation , and lack of drainage have also compounded the problem. The remedies, apart from the conventional control and prevention measures, are better water management practices and continuous monitoring of the projects by an inter-disciplinary team which should include a public health administrator.

The Province of Alberta has a mandatory land irrigability classification system. Land must be classified as suitable for irrigation before water can be issued. The system has six land classes of which the first four are irrigable. The Canadian Soil Classification System is used for describing soils which, together with parent material, soil profile, textual classes, soil chemistry and landscape features determine the limitations and the irrigability class. The system has developed over a number of years and the latest revision dates from 1983.
