Ousmane Badiane Joachim von Braun Co-Chairs, Malabo Montpellier Panel iv THE MALABO MONTPELLIER PANEL The core mission of the Malabo Montpellier Panel, a group of leading African and international experts from the fields of agri- culture, ecology, food security, nutrition, public policy and global development, is to support evidence-based dialogue among policy makers at the highest level. The Panel’s reports seek to inform and guide policy choices to accelerate progress toward the ambitious goals of the African Union Commission’s Agenda 2063, the Malabo Declaration and the global development agenda. The Panel works with African governments and civil society organizations to provide support and evidence-based research that facilitate the identification and implementation of policies that enhance agriculture, food security and nutrition.

Introduction The Abadan Project of Abvarzan involves the improvement of 3 pilot areas in the date palm belt along the Arvand River in Iran. The average annual rainfall in the area is 170 mm and occurs mainly in winter. To compensate the scarcity of water the palm trees are irrigated. Of old, the irrigation of the trees occurs by a system of tidal canals (figure 1), from which river water infiltrates into the soil at high tide. The trees are able to grow on the infiltrated water.

  • Optimization of Implementation of System Irrigation for Improving Agricultural Results in Cepu-Blora

To fulfill the water needs of the ground and the river water use plants for irrigation is greatly enhanced witches by farmers, by providing the resources (human, equipment, materials) available, optimal modeling of the irrigation system is required. The main objectives of the study to be achieved are 1). Knowing the applied irrigation system, 2).

  • Evolution and Future Directions of Water Use in Agriculture

The CPI developed in the Great Plains in the Midwest of USA has been wicjely adopted in these arid zones. The green circles, 1-3 km in diameter, seldom stay. at the same place for more than several years, but shift to other frontier lands after the CPI uses up deep groundwater, much of which consists of fossilized water that is never being replenished (Fig. 1). Sakia, animal-driven wheel for lifting water from a shallow well or a ditch for just a few feet, is still in use in the same arid zones. Traditional quanat systems are also very widely used to collect replenishable groundwater from a distant aquifer. I have seen a bull walking down-slope beside a well pulling a rope at the Below: at the Nile delta Above: at the Nile delta fringe Fig. 1 Center-pivot irrigation (above) and sakia (below) 1 Center for Southeast Asian Sh.Idies, Kyoto University, Japan xxxiii Yoshihiro Kaida end of which a leather water bag was attached, thereby lifting a small amount of water each time.

  • Optimization of Spatial Planning of Tidal Swamp Area to Support the Community Evelopment of Buol Regency, Indonesia
    3rd World Irrigation Forum (WIF3) ST-1.2 1-7 September 2019, Bali, Indonesia W.1.2.13 OPTIMIZATION OF SPATIAL PLANNING OF TIDAL SWAMP AREA TO SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY EVELOPMENT OF BUOL REGENCY, INDONESIA Budi Santosa Wignyosukarto1, Hadi Santoso2 ABSTRACT The Government of Buol Regency intends to develop a lowland area of 4688 ha in the Biau, Bukat, Bukal and Momuno sub districts for agricultural, animal husbandry, fisheries and tourism purposes, in order to improve the community's economy. The area is close to the coast line and on the banks of the Buol river, which is affected by tidal movements and flows of several natural rivers. At present only around + 35% of the area is exploited for various purposes including rice fields 1.78%, coconut plantation 14.78%, sago/nipa 13.72%, fish pond 8.64%. Whereas the other areas are left as swamps and bushes. The land properties survey states that the majority of land in the S2 class order (Moderately Suitable) to S3 / N1 (Marginal Suitable / Currently Not Suitable), is quite appropriate and marginal to be developed as agricultural land, especially with restrictions on drainage problems. In a small spot, a small amount of sulfaquents is found. This type of soil has a high pyrite content which when oxidized will be harmful to plants. Most (93%) is the tropaguept soil type which is immature land, the water content is high and the drainage is very inhibited. The total P value and its high cation exchange capacity indicate that the land is potentially fertile. Considering the soil pH between 5.1-6.5 and 6.6-7.3, it can be concluded that the influence of pyrite is not visible, but the effect of saline water intrusion is quite significant, the existence of Nipaplants in several places can be notified.

    Part 3 STUDY FOR MUSI RIVER BASIN The Project for Assessing and Integrating Climate Change Impacts into the Water Resources Management Plans for Brantas and Musi River Basins Final Report (Water Resources Management Plan) Main Report CHAPTER 7 COLLECTION AND COMPILATION OF INFORMATION AND DATA 7.1 Natural Condition of Project Area 7.1.1 Topography and Geology (1) Topography The Musi River is the largest river in Sumatra flowing down from west to east in South Sumatra Province which has the fourth largest catchment area of 59,942 km2 in Indonesia, and it is approximately 640km long. The average bed slope widely varies from upstream (1/100 - 1/200) to downstream (1/10,000) around Palembang, and becomes gentler (1/20,000) toward the coastal areas. The topography of the Musi River basin can be mainly classified into five zones as shown in Figure 7.1.1. The mountainous zone is distributed only to the west-southwest-south region of the basin under the influence of the prominent geological structure that indicates the northwest-southeast strike. The remaining 60% of the basin excluding the mountainous zone and its adjacent piedmont zone, is occupied by central plains, inland wetlands, and coastal plains. Table 7.1.1 Topographic Zones of Musi River Basin Zone Distribution Area Topographical Feature South-southwest-west of Mountainous Zone Valley, highland, and volcano the basin Between mountainous Undulating hills (Distribution with a width of about 40km to Piedmont Zone zone and central plains the northwest-southeast direction) Between piedmont zone Can be classified into three: plateau, floodplain, and river Central Plains and coastal plains levees Mainly along the rivers of Inland Wetlands Natural levee and marsh the downstream Coastal lowlands and delta lowlands covered with peat Coastal Plains Coastal and around delta swamp forest Source: JICA Project Team 2 (2) Geology A geological map of the Musi River basin is shown in Figure 7.1.1.
