The literature on rapid rural appraisal has so far focused primarily on methods appropriate for donor agencies and agricultural research institutions. In contrast, this paper discusses a rapid appraisal methodology that was developed for the use of an implementing agency. Called the sociotechnical profiling approach, this methodology became a tool of the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) in the Philippines for deciding which small-scale irrigation projects it would assist in a given year and for planning the agency's initial technical and social interventions. The paper describes the instruments that guided the preparation, write up, and analysis of the socio-technical profile; traces the history of how the instruments were developed and how the NIA staff earned to use them; and discusses the impact of the profiling approach on the implementation process of NIA's small-scale irrigation program.

Preliminary findings from a study of farmer behavior in a 500-ha communal irrigation system in the Philippines' Camarines Sur province area are reported. Farmers use their irrigation water with considerable care. They have worked out generally satisfactory local arrangements for allocating and distributing scarce supplies of water, and they pay substantial amounts for irrigation even though formal water payments are low.

Paper prepared for the Conference on Public Intervention in Farmer-Managed Irrigation Systems, Kathmandu, Nepal, 3-6 August 1986, sponsored by the International Irrigation Management Institute (IIMI) in collaboration with the Water & Energy Commission Secretariat (WECS) of the Ministry of Water Resources of the Government of Nepal. The program of the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) of the Philippines for assisting communal irrigation systems employs what is now widely known as the participatory approach. NIA experimented with this intervention method in one project in 1976 and developed and improved it in 16 other projects between 1979 and 1980. In 1981 NIA began to implement this method nationwide. A key feature of NIA's participatory approach is the fielding of full-time organizers to a project area months before NIA begins construction on the irrigation project. The organizers assist the farmers to be prepared to work with the engineers in planning the layout and design, and construction of the system, and they utilize the various planning and construction activities to develop and strengthen the irrigator's association. They continue to work intensively with the association up to the first two crop seasons following the completion of construction. During this later period, they focus on encouraging the association to develop and implement improved processes and procedures for managing the system. This paper discusses the results of a study which evaluated the impact of NIA's participatory communal program.

Several mechanisms which farmers use in managing a communal irrigation system in the Philippines are discussed in this paper. These mechanisms are either culture-specific (e.g. mobilization of labor and cash resources, imposition of discipline among system members) or those used across cultures (e.g. creation of mini-unit organizational structures and the presence of leadership in all parts of the irrigation system). Since these mechanisms represent the farmer's solutions to socio-organizational challenges specific to community systems, they require careful attention in irrigation development efforts.

This report discusses the findings of a study which evaluated the impact of a participatory approach of the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) for assisting farmer-managed, or communal irrigation systems. The evaluation was done through a comparison of two types of NIA-assisted communal projects - those which NIA developed through its participatory intervention method, hence named participatory projects; and those which NIA assisted through its traditional approach, thus called nonparticipatory projects. The study covered 24 participatory projects and 22 nonparticipatory projects, or a total of 46 projects located in five service regions in NIA.
