FOR CENTURIES, FARMERS in Nepal have been developing the land and water resources of the country for irrigated agriculture. while some of the farmer-managed irrigation system are performing at the level estimate as necessary to meet the basic needs of Nepal's growing population, many systems are not fully utilizing the resources at their disposal. Research on farmer-managed system in recent years has indicated strategies that could be employed to improve the value of assistance being given to improve and expand these system. An action-research project was formulated to develop and test procedure for doing this.
