This report describes the characteristics of the irrigation system in the old lands, various interventions that were tested by the project and recommendations to improve irrigation water use and management. In addition a list of the technical reports produced by the project is given. This report was the basis for the National Conference held from 18-20 March, 1984 where the findings and recommendations of the project were discussed in detail by approximately 150 Egyptian irrigation and agricultural specialists.

Discusses different water delivery systems and scheduling policies, based on intensive research underway by the U.S. Agricultural Research Service and how these might be applicable to managing irrigation systems elsewhere in the world. Presents an extensive section on scheduling policies of irrigation projects which includes the system components, scheduling terminology, and the relationship between scheduling policy and water conservation. Concludes with brief coverage of some structural and equipment aspects of water control and the measurement of water flow.

The purpose of this study is to examine the social factors which affect the water management decision-making of Punjabi farmers in a sample of fifteen Pakistani villages. In essence, the study design is as follows: The focus of inquiry is on three dependent variables-- (1) decisions of farmers to clean watercourses; (2) decisions to change from kacha to pacca warabandi systems of water allocation; and (3) decision to interact with lower level irrigation department employees.

The study focuses on twenty watercourses in the Pakistan Punjab and how they are operated and maintained. Water trading and cooperation in some of the watercourses suggest that there is a greater potential for the cooperative use of the system than is being exploited. The potential conflicts and disproportionate distribution of benefits from watercourse improvements have worked against the improvement program. However, the past experience of farmers in providing collective goods seems to help overcome these constraints to watercourse improvement.

In the haste to install and extend large-scale irrigation schemes, their management has been neglected. Improving management in turn, depends on the development of effective monitoring methods suitable to the system in use. The warabandi system of irrigation in northwest India is examined here. Observation was focused on one distributary, the area commanded was sampled and a simple method of measuring irrigation was used. An attempt was madeto estimate both the allocative and productive effectiveness. Recommendations are made for improving on the methods that were used.
