The development objectives of the Second Irrigation and Drainage Rehabilitation Project are to support the sustainable and equitable use of agriculture production. There are four project components. The first, rehabilitates and improves irrigation facilities, flood control and drainage facilities, and irrigation reservoirs and headworks, as well as supporting field surveys, project design, and construction supervision. The second component continues support provided under the first project for developing a sustainable irrigation sub-sector by 1) strengthening and expanding the transfer of irrigation management to water users' associations; 2) assisting the restructuring of water enterprises into more sustainable institutions responsive to their users; and 3) assisting the construction industry to encourage better contract practices and construction quality. The third component improves irrigation technologies like gate and pump station design, develops design manuals, commissions sector studies, and conducts annual dam inspections. It also improves environmental management by piloting the communal management of micro-catchments, training farmers in best agricultural practices and extension services, and funding environmental monitoring. The fourth component supports project implementation including developing an investment program.
