| Summary, etc. |
Expansion in the Major and Medium (M. & M.) irrigation has become necessary due to overexploitation of groundwater through minor irrigation. The major argument behind expansion of M. & M. irrigation is that it suffers from low utilisation of potential created, high cost, low recovery of working expenses and environmental damage. The paper argues that the above-mentioned problems of M. & M. irrigation are not uniform in all the states of India. There are states with huge amount of potential unutilised, and conditions regarding utilisation of potential created and cost favourable to take an expansionary policy in M. & M. irrigation. The paper has also suggested policies for M. & M. irrigation suitable for the st ates under consideration. The paper argues that participatory management in M. & M. irrigation can take account the problem of low utilisation of potential created and low cost recovery. Environmental issues have not been discussed here. - Reproduced. |
