The need for provision of adequate water supply for both domestic cooking and industrial food technology use, especially for small scale food processing industries are discussed. The in-adequacy of water results in unhygienic and burdensome preparation and processing activities. In addition, the new appropriate technologies have worsened water-related problems and improved technologies are not optimally serving small-scale food processors, most of whom are women. In designing and installing these improved technologies for operation, the scope must be increased to cover water management as well as fuel saving as part of a comprehensive local programme for health and welfare improvement
