LARGE IRRGN. IMPROVE

closed

The Large-Scale Irrigation Improvement Project's objectives are to provide for greater efficiency in the use of existing resources in the large scale irrigated lands (LSI) and improve the financial performance of the nine Regional Development Agencies (ORMVA) in charge of LSI schemes, to reduce their dependance on the Government's budget. The project will consist of: (a) rehabilitation or upgrading of existing irrigation infrastructure; (b) provision of equipment, vehicles and houses for O&M operations; (c) setting up an efficient management information system and improved planning, financial, accounting and operating procedures; (d) technical assistance; and (e) on-farm development.
