Burkina Faso - Study for the small dam development program

The present study for the small dam development programme is part of the Burkinabe State's sectoral policy on agricultural development. It concerns the whole country because small dams have been built in all provinces. It aims to develop a rehabilitation and enhancement program for 125 existing dams and developments. Each site will be the subject of a feasibility file highlighting the potentialities and enhancement actions to be undertaken. The study should be carried out in two phases: the first phase devoted to the exploitation of documentation and the selection of the most favourable sites and the second phase should focus on technical and economic feasibility studies for each site and a programme taking into account all the sites studied.
