The consensus among policy-makers in the developing world and aid agencies is that a lack of capacity is constraining the development of irrigated agriculture. Although this concern is not new, it is now receiving much attention in the irrigation and drainage world, where it is becoming an issue in its own right rather than being embedded in infrastructure investment projects. In order to address this issue FAO Land and Water Development Division (AGL) organized a one-day workshop , which brought together a range of case studies from different parts of the world in order to demonstrate that capacity development should be central focus of future strategies on irrigation and drainage. This publication contains a synthesis of the workshop as well as three keynote papers prepared for the workshop based on the available literature and experiences. The complete workshop materials, which include several country papers and complementary documents, are included on a CD-ROM that accompanies this document

All statistical evidence confirms that agriculture is the key sector for water management, now and in the next decades. Nevertheless, the rural water development sector fails at present to get priority, compared to other competing sectors, in international fora. Strong and new arguments are needed to bring rural water back "on line." Agriculture policies and investments will need to become more strategic. They will have to unlock the potential of agricultural water management practices to raise productivity, spread equitable access to water, and conserve the natural productivity of water resources base.

The intention of this paper is to develop a framework for a new IWMI research program on environmental water requirements of aquatic ecosystems and environmental aspects associated with irrigated agriculture in river basins and wetlands. The program will be implemented primarily in the context of developing countries, but the paper also examines research questions, which are of general importance for eco-hydrology and environmental water resources management. At the same time, it does not purport to be a comprehensive coverage of the environmental water research field but is designed primarily for attention of specialists dealing with wetlands, water resources management and sustainable agricultural development within sister CGIAR centers and other similar international agencies. It is envisaged that some ideas for future research presented in the paper will also be of interest to hydrologists and ecologists engaged in developing the concepts of environmental water requirements of aquatic ecosystems. The introduction of the paper sets up the purpose of the document. This is followed by a description of a framework, which links different levels of water resources use and conservation of natural aquatic systems with various management interventions. The main focus areas of the proposed research are then discussed. They include estimating water requirements of aquatic ecosystems, evaluating scenarios of development and impacts of irrigated agriculture on rivers and wetlands, allocating water with the consideration of environmental thresholds, etc. The paper also discusses possible research activities, which are associated with these focus areas and presents examples of specific research projects that could be pursued internally or in partnership with other national and international institutions.

This manual (most of whose modules were originally published 2001-2002) aims at strengthening various aspects of irrigation development, mainly emphasizing the engineering, agronomic and economic aspects of smallholder irrigation, in view of the limited practical references available in this area. It also introduces the irrigation practitioner to the social, health and environmental aspects, providing a bridge between the various disciplines involved in irrigation development.--Publisher's description.

First published in 1988. There are many excellent texts on water supply and irrigation engineering, irrigation economics, agricultural development and the problems which often plague such efforts. Few syntheses of such writings have been made, despite a clear need for them from people interested in water resources and agricultural development: students of geography, economics, development studies and agricultural management, administrators, planners and aid agency staff. This book attempts to provide a broad interdisciplinary introduction for such people.
