  • Participatory Irrigation Management by Farmers —Local Incentives for Self-Financing Irrigation and Drainage Districts in China
    45324 Public Disclosure Authorized Participatory Irrigation Management By Farmers —Local Incentives for Self-Financing Irrigation and Drainage Districts in China Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Zong-cheng Lin The Environment and Social Development Unit, WBOB December 2002 Public Disclosure Authorized I. Introduction1 Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) is internationally well known as a principle management concept with which reform of the agricultural water sector and transfer of irrigation management to farmers are undertaken. Over the past fifty years, expansion of irrigated agriculture has made an enormous contribution to feeding the world’s expanding population. Yet in the meantime, the underfinancing and rapid deterioration of irrigation system have become a serious threat to the imperative of sustained increases in the productivity of irrigation systems in developing counties. Revenue shortfalls, together with perverse bureaucratic disincentives, has resulted in poor management of water deliveries, waterlogging, shrinking service areas, and deteriorating canals, drains, and structure. To counter the deteriorating situation, one development strategy after another has swept over the irrigation sectors for the last decades; and a common understanding among all the strategies is the need of institutional reform in light of participatory irrigation management. In China, one of the main reforms is the Self- Financing Irrigation and Drainage Districts (SIDD)2 supporting farmer participation in local irrigation management. In rural China as an agrarian society, irrigation is very important for agricultural production. Although irrigation accounts for less than forty percent of cultivated area in this country, the agricultural output of irrigation districts amounts to two thirds of that of the whole nation. For this reason, the Chinese government and farmers have invested immense resources in irrigation especially in the recent several decades.
