Book Irrigation Development and Agrarian Change

Download or read book Irrigation Development and Agrarian Change written by Jayantha Perera and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study examines irrigation development and agrarian change in the lower Indus basin during the past 150 years. Sindh, one of the constituent provinces of Pakistan, is located in the lower Indus river basin. The British captured Sindh in 1843 from local Mirs (rulers) and governed it for the next hundred years. Its annexation to the Bombay Presidency of British India triggered a process of irrigation infrastructure and institutional development that has continued after it became a constituent province of Islamic Republic of Pakistan in 1947. The main argument of this study is that during the last 150 years, agrarian changes in Sindh have been triggered by irrigation infrastructure development, initiated and supported by the state. It further argues that although large-scale irrigation facilities have expanded the irrigated land area and improved agricultural production during this period, the relations of production in agriculture have continued without much change"--P. 27-28.

Download or read book More Crop Per Drop written by Meredith Giordano and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is an analytical summary and a critical synthesis of research at the International Water Management Institute over the past decade under its evolving research paradigm known popularly as 'more crop per drop'. The research synthesized here covers the full range of issues falling in the larger canvas of water-food-health-environment interface. Besides its immediate role in sharing knowledge with the research, donor, and policy communities, this volume also has a larger purpose of promoting a new way of looking at the water issues within the broader development context of food, livelihood, health and environmental challenges. More crop per drop: Revisiting a research paradigm contrasts the acquired wisdom and fresh thinking on some of the most challenging water issues of our times. It describes new tools, approaches, and methodologies and also illustrates them with practical application both from a global perspective and within the local and regional contexts of Asia and Africa. Since this volume brings together all major research works of IWMI, including an almost exhaustive list of citations, in one single set of pages, it is very valuable not only as a reference material for researchers and students but also as a policy tool for decision-makers and development agencies.
