Pakistan - Irrigation and drainage : issues and options
Afsah, Shakeb | Laplante, Benoit | Wheeler,David R.
Irrigation is central to Pakistan's economy. Around 90 percent of agricultural output (which accounts for more than a quarter of the Gross Domestic Product, and more than half of all employment) is entirely dependent on irrigation. Yet Pakistan's irrigation and drainage system is in dire straits. Despite substantial budgetary input, it is facing a shortage of resources and suffering from severe and worsening operational problems. The Government of Pakistan, and the Bank need to work together to devise a strategy to get the irrigation and drainage system out of the present crisis and put it on a sustainable development path.
