Direction, Inducement, and Schemes: Investment Strategies for Small-Scale Irrigation Systems

Existing and potential investment strategies for small-scale irrigation development are sorted along a continuum based on directness of investment. Appropriate uses of four investment strategies are discussed: (1) revenue sharing; (2) agency funding to improve services and extension; (3) beneficiary community or group application for funding; (4) agency selection of projects and project sites.
