The history of a pump irrigation project in Gatanduanes, Philippines, is traced. Three pumps were introduced to the area in 1969, and a farmers' association established. The problems of this association and its relationship with the man responsible for installation and operation of the pumps, are analyzed. In 1972, an additional project was initiated which attempted to strengthen the association. Its progress in dealing with problems of land reform, water distribution, and credit are stressed.

The study reviews the experience with irrigation projects in Africa with particular attention to small-scale irrigation in the Sahel. It examines the characteristics of the successful projects in order to determine the basis for future successful projectdesign. It then outlines those factors most critical to the project success, including full and early farmer participation, low cost technologies, an adequate financial return that provides a cash flow to farmers at the time that they need it, and sustainability through groundwater surveys and attention to environmental considerations.

This paper presents the primary sociological, economic and technical factors influencing the design and operation of smallholder irrigation in South Asia. The main emphasis is placed on problems. The aim is to define the problems, without necessarily acknowledging any obligation to present solutions. Rather, the available options are described and possible direction of further development are suggested. Practical experience and illustrations, primarily from India, are presented.
