To meet these challenges requires improvements in the way irrigation systems are managed and operated. Modernization of irrigation systems involves institutional organizational and technological change. This publication reviews irrigation schemes and modernisation initiatives from around the world in order to assess and comment on the impact of modern water control and management approaches.
