description |
Irrigation has been vital to
agricultural gains in the last half century. But demand for
food continues to rise as the world's population
increases and economic progress allows more people to eat
better. Demand for irrigation grows apace with the demand
for food. But in recent years the pace of irrigation
development has slowed: expansion of irrigated fields has
not kept up with population growth. Governments have been
investing less in irrigation infrastructure, and less water
is available, as competing demands from cities and industry
reduce the water supply. To avoid a severe gap between
supply and demand, advanced irrigation techniques and
technology must replace inefficient water management
practices. With guidance and support from the World Bank,
public-private partnerships (PPPs) could improve the way
water is used. |
