The Long-Run Demand for Irrigation in Asia: Gazing Into the Crystal Ball Read more about The Long-Run Demand for Irrigation in Asia: Gazing Into the Crystal Ball This paper attempts to gaze into a crystal ball to gain insights into the three basic drivers that will determine the nature of future demand for irrigation services. It explains the dynamics in Asia of these three drivers and conclude, speculatively, on their impact on the design and management of irrigation systems.
