Irrigation and Participation: Rehabilitation of the Rajapur Project in Nepal
Abstract Rajapur is one of the world's largest farmer-managedirrigation systems, but it suffers badly from flood damage.This 15,000 ha project has now been rehabilitated withoutchanging the traditional management arrangements. The workswere planned carefully with effective participation, andindigenous organisations strengthened to help them cope withmore modern structures. The project was implemented over a 10-year period, and was adapted throughout this time as farmerrequirements and aspirations were better expressed andunderstood. This willingness to change the project wasfundamental to its success, and highlighted several key issueswhich will help planning similar projects in the future,making participation a reality and not mere rhetoric.
