Water as a sustainable resource

Water Accounting Plus: ADB irrigation case studies

Submitted by cvilla.consult… on Fri, 10/06/2023 - 11:12

IHE Delft, in partnership with International Water Management Institute (IWMI), implemented various studies under the ADB assignment “Expanding support to Water Accounting in River Basins and Water Productivity Measurements in Irrigated projects” (42384-012). The studies aim to support (a) ADB’s lending and non-lending assistance in the water sector, and (b) the design of irrigation projects at an early stage at selected candidate projects. The main focus is on making the best use of remote sensing data and information to inform decision making.

Ten large Asian river basins (the Amu Darya, Indus, Tarim, Ganges, Brahmaputra, Irrawaddy, Salween, Mekong, Yangtze, and Yellow) originate in the Hindu Kush Himalayas (HKH) region. They supply water to more than 1.3 billion people, a fifth of the world’s population, providing the means for food and energy production, livelihoods and a range of other crucial social and environmental services.
