In recent years, the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) has worked to improve food security, nutrition and livelihoods in rural communities in Ethiopia by increasing the value and effectiveness of agricultural water management through small-scale irrigation. However, while the potent...

Suhardiman, DianaSilva, Sanjiv deArulingam, IndikaRodrigo, SashanNicol, Alan[Review of water and climate adaptation financing and institutional frameworks in South Asia. Background Paper 3]Review of water and climate adaptation financing and institutional frameworks in South Asia. Background Paper 3

The Indus Basin Irrigation System (IBIS) lacks a system for measuring canal inflows, storages, and outflows that is trusted by all parties, transparent, and accessible. An earlier attempt for telemetering flows in the IBIS did not deliver. There is now renewed interest in revisiting telemetry in ...


Bhatti, Muhammad TousifAnwar, Arif A.Ali Shah, Muhammad Azeem[Revisiting telemetry in Pakistan’s Indus Basin Irrigation System]Revisiting telemetry in Pakistan’s Indus Basin Irrigation System

Irrigated agriculture and inland fisheries both make important contributions to food security, nutrition, livelihoods and wellbeing. Typically, in modern irrigation systems, these components operate independently. Some practices, commonly associated with water use and intensification of crop prod...

MaxFranklin, P.A.Hogan, Z.Koehn, J.D.McCartney, Matthew P.O’Brien, G.Phouthavong, K.Silva, L.G.M.Tob, C.A.Valbo-Jorgensen, J.Vu, A.V.Whiting, L.Wibowo, A.Duncan, P.[Speaking the same language: can the Sustainable Development Goals translate the needs of inland fisheries into irrigation decisions?]Speaking the same language: can the Sustainable Development Goals translate the needs of inland fisheries into irrigation decisions?

A key operational objective for the management of the Indus Basin Irrigation System of Pakistan is the distribution of water among tertiary canals in a transparent and equitable manner. Decisions on canal operations are disseminated as a Canal Operation Plan, or a Rotational Program, for each cro...


Anwar, Arif A.Bhatti, Muhammad TousifVries, T.T. de[Canal operations planner. I: maximizing delivery performance ratio]Canal operations planner. I: maximizing delivery performance ratio

Several irrigation water delivery methods are in practice in irrigated agriculture throughout the world, and a variety of classifications have been suggested by different researchers. Demand, arranged-demand, and rotation are the three main types of irrigation schedules/delivery methods. Irrigati...


Anwar, Arif A.Haq, Z.U.[Arranged-demand irrigation scheduling with nonidentical discharges]Arranged-demand irrigation scheduling with nonidentical discharges

Equity of water distribution is an oft-repeated and stated aim of the warabandi irrigation systems prevalent in Pakistan and parts of India. The Canal Operations Plan is one tool used to operationalize equitable distribution of water. These plans are created for every canal system every crop seas...


Anwar, Arif A.Vries, T.T. deBhatti, Muhammad Tousif[Canal operations planner. II: minimizing inequity]Canal operations planner. II: minimizing inequity

Conventional wisdom in many agricultural systems across the world is that farmers cannot, will not, or should not pay the full costs associated with surface water delivery. Across Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, only a handful can claim complete recovery o...


Bell, A.R.Ward, P.S.Ali Shah, Azeem M.[Increased water charges improve efficiency and equity in an irrigation system]Increased water charges improve efficiency and equity in an irrigation system

The Indus Basin Irrigation System suffers significant inequity in access to surface water across its millions of users. Information, i.e., monitoring and reporting of water availability, may be of value in improving conditions across the basin, and we investigated this via an experimental game of...
