Event: An Analytical Framework for Irrigation Systems Modernization An Analytical Framework for Irrigation Systems Modernization 24 March 2017 Author / Speaker Arnaud Cauchois View File India's irrigation system is challenged by increasing water demand and very low water use efficiency. To address these concerns, the National Water Use Efficiency Improvement Support Program (NWUEISP) was piloted in two sites: Dharoi in Gujarat and Sanjay Sarovar in Madhya Pradesh. The NWUEISP study takes stock of water use efficiency issues and proposes a framework to assess performance and identify main causes of low efficiency. It also proposes a modernization plan for India's irrigation system. This presentation shares the findings of this pilot study and recommendations to improve the country's irrigation system.
