1. Objectives and Scope:

The project was intended to inigate an area of 2)700 ha, and increase agricultural

production, employment by intensification of cropping intensity and hence the fanners income in the project area.

2. Cost, Financing and Schedule:

The original cost of the pr~iect was estimated at US$ 0.95 million during the appraisal.

Theprojectwasst:artedin 1974an.d was scheduled 'to be completed by 1977. The schedule

adopted :in the appraisal was optimistic and completion was delayed by 3 years. The actual

expenditures amounted to USS 1.6 :Million.

3. Implementation:

The construction of tubewells and related facilities was completed by the end of 1980.

The original targeted inigational command area of ~ 700 was not covered due to many

problems especially failure ofwells, Actual command area was 1875 ha.

4. Institutional Aspects: .

Irrigation operation and maintenance (0 & M) remained poor because of weak fanners organizations, lack of training on 0 & M and inadequate number of water management e.x.iension staff. Higher 0 & M cost and lesser collection of Irrigation Service Fees (ISF) threaten the sustainabiIity of system operation.

5. Environmenta' Impact: The project did not have any negati've environmental impact. However, the ground water level has decreased as revealed from discussion with the fanners. 6. CosttBenefit Assessment:

The Economic 1nternal Rate of Return. (EIRR) calculated by PPAR stands at 1 g percent.

The higher EIRR is mainly due to the lower inveSlment cost (whichis about Rs.62000 per

ha. at 1996 price) and higher adoption of modern technologies by the fanners.

7. Overall Performance and Sustainability:

The project is rated as successful . Socio economic condition of the farmers is better off.

However, the tubewells ran intoproblerns due to faulty designs. Operation & Main tenance is very high. Farmers are not motivated to pay Inigation Service Fee (ISF). On the other hand, project management has not been able to collect ISF as assessed .

8. Feedback:

The grOlmd water development is not so easy in Nepal The success and sustainability of the project d..ePends on the considerable technical supervision, more involvement and participation of the fanner and strong institution building efforts. Project formulation and design should specify the roles and that WUG are expected to petfonn. Project should pay attention to collect the ISF and maintain the tubewells properly.

? II. BACKGROUND

'" A. Rational:

Before the launching of Nepal's first development plan in 1957, only a tew

substantial irrigation schemes had been undertaken by miG/N. During the fIrst and

Second Development Plan (1957-62 and 1962-65 respectively) HMGlN's irrigation

programmes were concentrated on building medium sized system (15-60, 000 ha.) in the

Eastern and Mid-western T arai. In the Third Plan. a programme was launched for

consttuction of minor irrigation project} mostly in the Tarai. HMGIN then switched in the

Fourth Plan (1970-71 - 1974-75) to a policy of constructing medium sized irrigation

projects mainly in Tarai. During the plan period it was envisaged to provide irrigation to

, 1&3,633 ha. of which 15,000 ha. was to be covered by tubewell irrigation. The Birganj

lnigation Project (BIP) (later converted to NZIDB in 1973) was designed to develop the

irrigation facilities in Bara and Parsa with a target of introducing double cropping of

paddy. This project was the first irrigation/agricultural project fmanced by IDA in Nepal

" to provide tubewell irrigation facilitating in an area of 2, 700 ha. as pilot Project.

The Project Area:

The project area under rubewell irrigation is located north of the NEC, in Bara and

Parsa districts and covers approximately 200 sq. km. It has a rectangular fOlln with a

10ngitudinal axis of 20 km., oriented east-west. The southern border is the Eastern Gandak

canal. The area is situated along latitude 27~ and longitude 85"E. The elevation varies

£i'om 105 to 85 m. MSL.

nvo all weather roads: Bil'gunj. Katlunandu Highway and - road

pass through the tubewell area. There are also a number of fair weather roads. In the

nOlih of the area} there i~ an airport at SU1U'3.

~ B. Formulation:

In 1959, an agreement was signed between Hlv.IGIN and the Government of India

(GOl) for the execution of the Gandak Irrigation and Power Project. Under this

agreement, GOl was to finance and construct a barrage on the Gandak river and irrigation

systems on its left and right banks commanding a total area of about 1.2 M fu1 in Indi.:'l and

60:000 ha in Nepal. In Nepal, the inigation system was only to be constructed as a

secondary canals of 0.57 m3/see (20 cusses) capacity. it was agreed that the construction

of the distributary system below 0.57 rn3lsee capacity woula be the responsibility of

HMGN. Under this agreement, India started construction of the Nepal Eastern Canal

(NEC) and deep tubewells in 196&.

In 1969, Nippon Koei Company (Japan) was contracted under the FAOIUNDP

NEP 7 Project to prepare a Master Plan for the Central and Eastern Term, inCluding the

preparation of feasibility studies for selected areas. The .Birganj Itrigation Project was

identified for inclusion in the studies by F AOfrBRD Cooperative Program mission in early

1970. Initially, the Bank decided not to participate in an ongoing Indian aided project and

Nippon Koei commenced the preparation of a feasibility study for a 10,000 ha

groundwater development project for 300 tubewells in the Birganj area. The feasibility for

a combined swface and Gt'owld Water Project ill Birganj area was completed by NKC in

August 1971. Project appraisal took place in Nov. Dec. 1971. during the appraisal, it was

agreed that HMGN would set up a special project Board, the Narayani Zone Irrigation

Development Board (NZIDB), to be responsible for the execution and operation of the

project.

When it became apparent that the Indian aid project would be completed by 1972 and that sUlface water development had a higher priority than groundwater development, the World Bank agreed to [mance a joint smface and groundwater development project. illvIGN, F AO/UNDP and the Bank subsequently agI'eed that Nippon Koei should prepare

21 a feasibility study for a combined surface and groundwater project. It was also agreed that

\I' the groundwater component should be limited to the re-equipping of 14 existing tubewells

(also constructed under Indian aid) and the drilling of 14 new tubewells. The total " groundwater area was thus limited to 2,730 ha; It was also intended to function as a pilot

operation for future large scale groundwater development. The project was approved by

the World Bank, Board ofDirectors on March 20, 1973.

C. Objectives and Scope at Appraisal

The main objective of the project was to raise agricultural production, incomes and

employment by intensification of crops in an area of about 2,700 ha. This was to be

achieved by completing and improving the exisUng ilTigation works so that a switch to

higher yielding varieties of paddy in the rainy season and to irrigated upland crops in the

d1y season would be possible. The objective was puisued by rehabilitation of existing and

construction of new public tubewells north of the Nepal East canal. This component had

as its main purpose of testing the feasibility of groundwater development for groups of

fanners with a view of future expansion of this pilot scheme. In addition, the project aimed at providing coordinated package of agricultural support services (agricultural extension and research, cooperation services, service roads, etc.). Since the project was

one of the ftrst of its type and scope in Nepal, institution building and demonstration

effects were considered important objectives, too.

The specific compone1lts of tile project were:

(i) Testing of existing tubewells and replacement of inadequate pumps, motors and

control de"ices.

i (ii) Drilling and equipping ofabout 14 new tubewells. (iii) Construction of about 18 km of 1yIg .. transmission. lines to sen.ice existing and new tubewells.

<; (iv) Construction of related storage tanks and irrigation. distribution syst~n1s, consisting .. of lined main canals,~ unlined secondary canals to the turnouts commanding 30­ 40 ha service w.nts each, and drainage networks in the command of each tubewell . ..

D. Financing Arrangement:

The project cost was estimated Rs 9.6 M. during the appraisal. This was to be

financed by IDA (60 percent), HMGIN (30 percent) and by fanners remaining 10 percent

. Due to cost over nm (more then double) HMGr'N had-to fInance a larger part of total

cost then it was estimated at appraisal (about 44% vs. 30%) (Detail in Appendix-I)

E. Completion:

The project was to be completed in five years beginning July 1973 to June 1978.

The implementation period had to be ex'tended from the initial 5 to 8.5 years. Cost

ovemm was due to inflation, underestimation of quantities of inputs needed and time

ovemm. The time ovemm was due of difficulties in procuring goods and services, limited

local contracting capability, delay in identifying and recruiting consultantS, limited interest

by outside contractors and shortage of construction materials.

Among the 29 deep tubewells, 14 tubewells have been constructed under Indian aid

(called 'old tubewells), and 17 tubewells including three redrilled old tubewells and one

tubewell converted for observation well under Narayani stage I project (called new

tubewells) .

In 1985, it was found that nine tubewells had been collapsed and re-drilling was

required. After the arrangement of the fund from Bhairawa - Lwnbini ground Water

project (BLGWP IDA credit 1316) redrilling began in 1988 and completed in March

1989.

() " F. Ex-post Evaluation

The Project Petformance Audit Report (pPAR) focuses on the pertinent aspects of

the project and presents finding of the PEM and the field visits conducted from 8 to 17

June 1996. The assistance provided by NPC~ NZIDP, project staff and the fanners in the

preparation ofthis report is greatly acknowledged.

The field assessment methodology adopted was Rapid appraisal using both the

primary and secondary data. The household survey of the fanners were conducted

through a structure questionnaire. The method of sampling was purposive to select the

tubewell area and random to select the fanners . Sample was taken from both the operating

and non-operating tubewell areas. Representative households. were also surveyed

purposively from· the control area in order to compare benefits of 'with' and 'without'

project situations.

Narayani Tubewell Irrigation Project (NTIP) is a component of Birgunj Irrigation

project stage I which was later converted to NZIDP. Thus, due to unavailability of

Reparate data, reports (pCRJS~), and other related documents, it was extremely difficult

for PEM to disaggrate NTIP from NZIDP.

Copies of the draft report will be send to executing agencies, NPCs, \VorId. Bank

for review and comments. The comments received will be taken into account in finalizing

the report.

7 III IMPLEMENTATION PERFORMANCE

( ?1

A Design:

The project was designed to complete the rudimentary system build with assistance

from GOl, to install 14 new tubewells and redrill 9 tubewelis to provide year - round reliable

water supply in an area of 2,700 m.. The project was designed on the basis of feasibility

under-taken over the period 1965-69, and the :findings of identification/preparation mi')sions

over the period 1969-71 and the appraisal mission in 1972. The ini~ design of some wells \ were faulty. The consultants, given responsibility for the design of the tubeweUs had limited

experience in underground water development technology. This was aggravated by poor

construction supervision and poor 0 & M The ultimate result has been that some wells never

operated and other provided an unreliable irrigation. (The detail performance of wells is

presented in Appendix-2).

'" B. Contracting Construction and Commissioning: The project experienced difficulties in attracting foreign contractors . The use of local

contractors caused delays in implementation due to limited contracting experiences,

cumbersome administrative procedures and shortage of construction materials.

The peIfonnance of the contractors has been poor by international standard. The

perfonnance of the National Construction Company of Nepal (NCCN) which was awarded

contracts for the construction of the project headquarters and tubewells (phase - 1) has been especially disappointing.

R C. Organization and Management:

Narayani Zone Inigation Development Board (NZIDB) was created in 1973 for

;\I executing the Narayani Irrigation Project (NZIDP stage I). The main purpose for setting up

this semi-autonomous agency was to ensure proper co-ordination between the various

.Ministries involved in tlw implementation of the pr~iect.

The powers of NZIDB were vested in an eight member Board of Directors chaired by

the secretary of :MVlR, and members represent:'ltives from the Mlnistries of MLRM. MOA,

NPCS, MOF, DOl and as secretary the GM of NZIDR The field network is controlled by

GM who has four division under him: Engineering. Agriculture, Administration and Finance.

The present staff for operation and maintenance of tubewells are: one assistant engineer, one

overseer, 18 pump operators, three supervisors and one assistant electrician (detail Appendix

3). In project office Bara, there is a small workshop capable of minor repairs only. The main

limitations are lack of spare parts rather than limited manpower. The operators may sometime

be a constraint for the proper utilization of the water. Many of them are recruited from

distance villages and are not required to stay near the wells. The operators presence being

irregular the fanners do not receive water in the required time.

D. Actual Cost and Financing:

The SAR estimated tubewell irrigation cost was 1\TRs 9.6 M. The actual cost for

existing and new tubewells was 1\TRs. 19.8 M. (Appendix. 1). Thus, a cost overrun of

approximately more than double has been experienced. The appraisal cost estimate could have

been updaJed at the time of credit negotiations wblch could have added to the smooth

functioning of the project activities.

Q An IDA credi~ (373 NEP) was approved by the World Bank Board on March 1973

.. under Nepal - Birganj Irrigation Project Narayani Zone. The was estimated closing date was

December 1978 at appraisal however, extension was till December 1981.

E. Implementation Schedule:

The project, as initially defined, was to be implemented ovp,r a five year period Jury

1973 to June 1978. In January 1974, an implementation schedule was prepared as shown in

-:hart 1. However, immediate difficulties were experienced with the tendering for the civil

works. Only one tender was received for the civil works to be constructed for the existing

tubewells (stage - 1). There was also a lack of interest for the supply of pumps and electrical

facilities required for the groWld water scheme phase I. The contract had to be retendered.

F. Technical Assistance:

On December 1973, a contract for consulting service was s~ed by NZIDB and

,. Nippon Koei company (NKC) Japan. Approximately 400 man months of consulting services have been provided. Of these, 365 man months have been financed out of credit (373) while

another 35 man month have been financed from NZIDP stage IT credit (856). The services

provided by consultant have generally been satisfactory. The main tasks of the consultants

were (i) to prepare topographical maps ii) to provide engineering services including planning,

design, constnlction snpervision and preparation of tender documents ill) administrative and

agricultural services iv) preparation of feasibility studies. Five missions and fourteen

supervision teams from World Bank visited the· project area. The success of project

implementation could not have been attained without the consultants inputs that were provided

during the project period.

10 IV. PROJECT RESULTS

,.

A. Operational Performance:

The main objective of the project was to increase crop production, fann incomes and

non-fann incomes by providing tubewell inigation facilities in the northern part ofNEC.

The croppihg intensity have been increased from 137 percent (pre-project) in 1974 to

194 percent in 1996. Similar1:y, the yield of major crops has increased. Both the yield and

intensity are higher than the control area.

It is observed that fanners are not using chemical fertilizer at recommended doses due

to the unavailability in time. Sometimes, they have to depend on India, as well. Fanners ate

using their own local varieties seeds and a few fanners use the improved varieties from

PatVJarupur Agricultural Research Centre (PARC). Even though there is access to water and

market access fanners are not interested in vegetable cultivation. Ex"tension service may help

to increase the. income by cultivating cash crops. Among the cash crops, sugarcane and

;), oilseed are common in the tubewell area. (The cropping intensity and crop yield is given in

Appendix .10) . With the assistance of the World Bank in 1975, the then existing ehiension

services in the. project area was changed to the Training and Visit (T & V) system. It was the

first system introduced as a pilot scheme. Originally, it was planned to, confme the T & V

system to the project area only but later it was eX"tended to the entire Bara and .

Thus, tubewell and T & V system both were introduced in the project area.

In the project area, majority of the farmers live in better condition (economic, social)

as compared to control area. Overa.ll cropping intensity is estimated at 194 in a net cultivated

area of 1875 ha. Before the project the area was under local varieties which has been replaced .. 1 1 by high yielding varieties (HYV). Paddy, wheat pulses. sugarcane, potato are the major crops fl, in the project area. The yield~ of major crops are significantly higher than control area and the

district average. The agricultural inputs (seed, fertilizer. labour, land ta-\., irrigation) priceR

increased relatively faster than the output price. The input used for major crop production

per ha. is presented in Appendix -12 )

The Water User Groups (U/UG) are not functioning well. The relationship between

\VUG and implementing agency is not satisfactory. The unequal distribution of water among

fanners, inadequate maintenance of physical system, confbct between users and the authority

and the higher 0 & M cost are the major operational problems. On the other hand, \\'''UG are

also not interested for the operational management of the tubewells, since they know that 0 &

M cost is higher than ISF.

Most of the project fmanced m,tior equipments were available from NZIDB. 0 & M

~ is the main function at present . The minor repair and maintenance of tubewell is done fi'om

buying the parts from India. Due to budget constraints, the parts needed for repair works are

not stocked.

B. Institutional Development:

NZIDB is a semi autonomous agency whose functions includes (a) approval of annual

budget (b) staff appointments (c) approval of awards of contracts (d) semi-annual review of

implementation of programme and progress and (e) co-ordination of policy matters on

progratmne budget and fmance. Under NZIDB, the Tubewell sub-division is located in

Kalaiya headquarter of . Day to day functions are operated by sub-division and

other decisions are done by NZIDB. The operation and maintenance and field \york are done

by the limited staff (Appendix -3). Elich lubewell have its own VlUG, elected by filmKrs.

These \\:UG were supposed to work with project staff in mobilizing farmers to construct fic·ld

1") channels to operate and maintain. It is observed that 'WUG are not functioning well and the

relation with project staff is not satisfactory. The service of Junior Technician (IT) is not

available at present. Previously, the services of IT regarding water requirement, water

distribution and extension was encouraging.

C. Financial Performance:

The financial perfOlmance of J\."TIP is not encouraging and satisfactory. At appraisaL

ISF was Rs. 100iha. In 1977-78 the rate increased to Rs. 2001ha. Presently since (1987-88)

the ISF is charged Rs. 400/ha. However, ISF collection performance is about 46.5 percent , . Detail is presented in Appendix.:! The recovery from Tubewell has been significantly better

--partly due to more reliable and equitable services and partly due to mqre effective enforcement

(a fanner is supplied with water only upon the presentation of payment for the last delivery).

The government's own budgetary resources are severely limited. The small 0 & M budget that is provided each year is insufficient to cover the actual 0 & M requirement Moreover, actual release of 0 & M funds is often delayed and has to be spent within a short period of time.

D. Re~estimation of the Economic Internal Rate ofReturn (EIRR):

At current level of pelionnance, the EIRR was estimated at 18 percent (Appendix­

21) The EIRR has been calcUlated on the basis of direct incremental economic benefilS of crops by comparing 'with and without project (comman.d and control)situation. The direct economic benefits of the project are from increased crop production resulting from increased cropped area, higher yields and increased cropping intensity. The cropping intensity has been estinlated to be 194 and 159 percent in with and without project situations respectively.

The per hectare ne·t incremental benefit in 1996 has found to be Rs 13,637 for paddy,

Rc; 1,169 for wheat, Rs 388 for oilseed, Rs 2,721 sugarcane and Rs. 685 for pUlses. The total

n net incremental benefits of the pro.iec~ has been calculated to be Rs. 4,6142,000 (Appendix

~ 11)

Socio-economic and Socio-cultural Result:

The sample survey done by PEM fOWld that the average size of 11,5 person pel' house

hold The literacy rate was found to be 44 percent . The estimated· per household income ir.;

Rs. 16,948. The living condition and household assets has increased after the intervention by

the project. The socio-economic condition of command area is better then· the control area.

The land price has reached to Rs. 5,00,OOOlha. almost the double of control area. The

average land holding size is estimated 2.0 and 1.93 ha. command and control respectively

(Appendix-7) Similarly, the livestock holding has increased' which has helped to increase

income and agticultural production. The annual incremental benefit in 1996 is estimated to

about 46 M. with additional farm and non-fatm employment. This project contributed to a

reduction in poverty by improving the availab:Uity of food, increasing fanners income and

creating rural employment.

Intangible benefits (road: education, nutrition water, health) has increased the

awareness. As a result, access to input, new technology, employment market information and

basic social services has increased. Some fanners have been encouraged and shifted to

higher value crops such as, vegetables, pulses, and oilseeds.

F. '''omen in Development:

The project did not provide any direct focus on women. However, the indirect

benefits to women seems to be more prevalent. The PEM survey estimated that the literacy

rate for female is 21 percent. The percentage of school going git1s (~-1 0 years)~ is 42 percent.

As the household income and assets has considerably increased, \vomen have bought gold

omaments for themselves and for their daughter'S ma111ages which is generally conunon in

1,1 Tarm districts. The participation in different agricultural activities is estimated to be 43 percent

" (Appendix -9). The participation of women in vVUG is not encouraging due to social reason.

G. Environmental Impacts and control:

The project has benefited the environments by changing the dry area into a green area

of different crops. However, the development of sand pumping problems suggests that water

level has decreased: the deposit of sand may affect the productivity. There was no indication

of negative impact from the use ofchemical fertilizer and pesticides which were applied in low

rates.

H. Gestation and sustainability:

The sustainability of the project depend on the commitment and capacity of water

users to provide 0 & M. PEM observed that farmers are unwilling to cover the 0 & M cost

because the servioe, is not reliable .. To change this situation, the project needs substantial

effort to regain farmer's trust at;l.d confidence and to develop better relationship between ~ fanners and project staff.

1<:; v. KEY ISSUES AFFECTING THE PROJECT

1. Groundwater development in Tarai is not so easy. A major constraint is the lack of

teclmicians ~o maintain the facilities. The best available technology appropriate to local

conditions will be needed for the design and construction of tubewells. Other pre­

requisites for successful operation are regular supply of electricity, adequate workshop

facilities the maintenance and adequate stock of spare parts and budget to support for 0 &M.

2. The implementation of the irrigation projects in Nepal is time over run and cost 7 overrun. The factor for these reasons are shortage of technical staff, shortage of

construction materials, and limited construction capacities of LCB. Consequently,

Nepal has limited capacity to implement underground inigation projects.

3. The collection of ISF is not satisfactory. On the other hand the 0 & Iv1 cost is very

high .The project should enforce collection of ISF and impose rules to delinquent

farmers.

111 VI. CONCLUSIONS

A. Ovet'all Assessment;

The PEM considers the project to be successful . Physical facilities and SOClOM

economic conditions of the :GuIDers were improved. However, the project paid insufficient

attention to develop and strengthen farmer's capacities to operate and maintain. The

maintenance work is inadequate and the facilities are deteriorating . The actual inigated area is

lower than expected. Average ISF collection rate is 46.5 percent. The a & M cost per ha is

about Rs. 1,500 which is very high. out of 14 tubewells , three pumped sand and gravel from

the beginning and were never operated. Other three subsequently failed for the same reason.

The result is believed to be due to failure of casing Iscreen assembly probably at the key joint

on the fibber glass pipe constl1lction .

B. Lesson Learned:

The following key lessons are derived from the project .

i) The cost recovery and financial sustainability of inigation system can not be atbined

unless water users accept full responsibility for the management and maintenance of

system facilities. ii) Project formulation and design should specify the roles and functions that water users

are expected to perform and pay attention to the process by which those skills and

capacities are transferred to water user groups. iii) If water users assume the resources as a gift from tpe govenunent and remain

dependent on external sources for the a & wI, they are unlikely to actept subst.antial responsibility for the management and maintenance. iv) Poor design and construction of weils has increased the cost of the project and the

actual inigated area is below the target .

1'1

\

"' v) LCB and other facilities delayed the completion ofthe project. vi) The cost estimates must be realistic to enable better assessment of economic viability .

The tubewells irrigation scheme~ for example, calculated the electricity tariff rate at Rs.

0.12 kwh in 19i2 and cWTently, the rate stands at Rs. 3.05 kwh. vii) Performan~e of completed tubewells ~'Ystem had suffered from unreliable power

supply shortage of spare parts and poor maintenance . However : power supply is

improved as the national power grid is completed.

C. Follow up Actions: i) Ongoing and proposed underground irrigation projects should be reviewed to

determine the measures that should be taken to improve famler's participation and to

reduce the 0 & M cost. n) It is very possible to collect more ISF iffanners get reliable water supply . Government

require strong commitment to provide the water and to enforce the collection ofISF . iii) As this is the first IDA financed inigation project, it will be an additional praise worthy

contribution ifIDA continue infonnal monitoring/supervision in the future. Thi.;; can be

done simultaneom:ly with NZIDP stage Ii and ii1 which are under implement~lli()n .

In summary it is found that the project is successful. The main results from the prqject are (a) increased cropping intensity (b) increased yield (c) increased the socio economic condition of the farmer in the project area.

The ground water scheme was planned to irrigate 2~730 ha. but indications are that under nonnal condition i.e. no power failure! no major breakdown etc. the actual irrigatable would be lesser as targeted. All new wells have a capacity of about 80 lis and are able to irrigate about 90 ha. only instead of 120 ha. as planned. therefore a total of 1,875 ha. land is considered for EIRR.

Economic Re-evaluatton Assum ptions

The EIRR i'S re-estimated for the agricultural crop production. .Major as.'Sumptions underlying the re-estimation of the EIRR are as follows.

1. ,All cost and benefits are convened into constant 1996 price using national consumers price Index. All cost and benefits are expressed in teffils ofN"Rs.

2. The cost of production and value of crop output are calculated :in tenus of economic prices.

3. Inputs and outputs are assumed to be same after 1996 to the project life.

4. The cost of the project does not include the cost of land acquisition and taxes and duties paid by project.

5. The economic life of the project assumed to be 30 years from.

" 6. The total actual inigated area was assumed to 1875 ha. The incremental benefits has been estimated according to irrigated area.

7. The project benefit has been derived from the incremental crop production and cropped area by paddy 1834 ha, wheat 900 ha. oilseed 225 ha. puL~es 338 ha, sugarcane 263 ha and potato 75 ha (Appendix 7).
