To help A.I.D. focus and prioritize its irrigation efforts in India, this report reviews current A.I.D. irrigation projects (IP's) in the country and presents irrigation development options and investment strategies for the 1980's. After background sections on irrigation in India and the USAID/I irrigation program, the authors review the technical and organizational aspects of 14. A.I.D. IP's and training programs in the states of Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan. Most projects visited were inefficient or unreliable in distributing water to and within fields and lacked effective management between the plants and the water supply, leading to much underutilization (and waste of money) and inequity in benefit distribution. A review of the operations of the Command. Area Development. Authorities (CADA), the agency overseeing IP's, reveals poor overall control and coordination. To help redress these problems, a new management model for CADA, stressing policy management, is presented. Strategies suggested to improve IP's regard the distribution of irrigation water and the equity of this distribution and include a wide range of technical and management training options. As guide
