Book World Development Report 1988

Download or read book World Development Report 1988 written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1988 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the eleventh report in the annual series assessing major development issues. Part I reviews recent trends in the world economy and their implications for the future prospects of developing countries. Part II examines the role of public finance in development. This report includes the World Development Indicators, which provide selected social and economic indicators for more than 100 countries. Despite continued economic growth through 1987 and into 1988, two problems have characterized recent trends: unsustainable economic imbalances within and among industrial countries, and highly uneven economic growth among developing countries. Part I of the report concludes that three interdependent policy challenges need to be addressed. First, industrial countries need to reduce their external payments imbalances. Second, developing countries need to continue restructuring their domestic economic policies in order to gain creditworthiness and growth. Third, net resource transfers, external debt, from the developing countries must be trimmed so that investment and growth can resume. Part II of the report explores how public finance policies are best designed and implemented. How deficits are reduced is crucial: controlling costs in mobilizing revenues and setting careful priorities in public spending are equally important. Efficiency in providing public services and expanding the scope for raising revenue can be achieved through decentralizing decisionmaking and reforming state-owned enterprises with the latter permitting greater private participation.

Book Mapping irrigated areas in the Limpopo Province  South Africa

Download or read book Mapping irrigated areas in the Limpopo Province South Africa written by Cai, Xueliang and published by International Water Management Institute (IWMI). This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the findings of a collaborative effort to map and assess irrigated areas in the Limpopo Province, South Africa. The study was conducted by the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in collaboration with the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) and the Limpopo Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (LDARD), as part of the DAFF-supported ‘Revitalization of irrigation in South Africa’ project. Based on a combination of Landsat and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite data, previous irrigated area mapping exercises carried out by DAFF and three-field ground truthing (GT) surveys, a total of 1.6 million hectares (Mha) of cropland were identified, with 262,000 ha actually irrigated in the 2015 winter season. The study also found that only 29% of all land equipped with center pivots was actually irrigated.

Book Consumption based water management

Download or read book Consumption based water management written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2023-10-26 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document on consumption-based water management (CBWM) distils and expands on the findings of an expert consultation hosted by FAO and the China Institute of Water Resources and Hydropower Research (IWHR). The meeting brought together Chinese and international experts to discuss the technical, governance and broader dimensions of managing consumptive water use, and to understand the implications of more than ten years’ pilot experience in China and its potential for application in a broader range of climatic, political administrative and socioeconomic contexts. The document provides contextual information on CBWM, introduces technical basis for CBWM, takes a closer look at law, policy, and governance and their the relevance in implementing CBWM, and step-by-step detail on implementation of CBWM. Finally, the document argues that the implementation of CBWM requires preliminary steps in developing water accounts, water rights, water allocation processes and associated institutional arrangements, all of which are very relevant and immediately necessary in most countries in Asia.

Book Trans jurisdictional Water Law and Governance

Download or read book Trans jurisdictional Water Law and Governance written by Janice Gray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governance of global water resources presents one of the most confounding challenges in contemporary natural resource governance. With considerable government, citizen and financial donor attention devoted to a range of international, transnational and domestic laws and policies aimed at protecting, managing and sustainably using fresh and coastal marine water resources, this book proposes that sustainable water outcomes require a ‘trans-jurisdictional’ approach to water governance. Focusing on the concept of trans-jurisdictional water governance the book diagnoses barriers and identifies pathways to coherent and coordinated institutional arrangements between and across different bodies of laws at local, national, regional and international levels. It includes case studies from the European Union, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the United States and Southeast Asia. Leading specialists offer insights into the pretence and the promise of trans-jurisdictional water governance and provide readers, including students, practitioners, policy-makers and academics, with a basis for better analysing, articulating and synthesising standards of good trans-jurisdictional water governance both in theory and in practice.
