Irrigation management processes and conditions: a case study of Sri Lanka's Walawe Irrigation Improvement Project
1991
Nijman, C. (International Irrigation Management Inst., Colombo (Sri Lanka))
The study presented in this book takes a management perspective in the analysis of the performance of a major irrigation system in Sri Lanka under the Walawe Irrigation Improvement project. It documents the decision-making process during project identification, feasibility assessments, system design and system operation. A systematic analysis of the interaction between system performance, decision-making processes and their managerial conditions has resulted in recommendations for improvement and has demonstrated the far reaching changes required in the interaction among the donors, the government and the agencies to development commitment and accountability towards irrigation system performance. While these findings and recommendations are derived from one case study, they have much wider validity and application.
