In 2009-2012, IWMI conducted a study for the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) on the performance of their agricultural water management interventions across five countries in Africa and Asia: Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Nepal and Sri Lanka. Weak community engagement was found to severely hinder the effectiveness of interventions in all countries. An original training curriculum was developed for local project managers, social mobilisers, irrigation engineers and government extension officers, based on research findings, to improve community engagement in the particular case of agricultural water management interventions. This video presents the main innovations of this curriculum, illustrated by the pilot course that took place in Nepal in October 2012.

Water productivity - the amount of a crop produced per unit water - is a much used measurement. A quick search for the phrase on Google Scholar yields nearly 18,000 citations. So it is popular, but is it of any use? Former IWMI Deputy Director General, Dennis Wichelns, thinks it may not be. He believes that to distil crop production down to merely the amount of water used leaves a lot of important information out of the picture. Fertilizer, seeds, plant intakes, labor and unpredictable influences like the weather all play their part, but are ignored by such a simplistic ratio. But if the calculation has such shortcomings, why is the mantra of "more crop per drop" so seductive?

Water productivity - the amount of a crop produced per unit water - is a much used measurement. A quick search for the phrase on Google Scholar yields nearly 18,000 citations. So it is popular, but is it of any use? Former IWMI Deputy Director General, Dennis Wichelns, thinks it may not be. He believes that to distil crop production down to merely the amount of water used leaves a lot of important information out of the picture. Fertilizer, seeds, plant intakes, labor and unpredictable influences like the weather all play their part, but are ignored by such a simplistic ratio. But if the calculation has such shortcomings, why is the mantra of "more crop per drop" so seductive?

THE PLANNERS DREAM GOES WRONG
Letting loose the lunatics wasn't the greatest of ideas
Giving them plans and money to squander
Should have been the worst of our fears
The dream life luxury living was a pleasant number 10 whim
But somewhere down the line of production
They left out human beings
They were gonna build communities
It was going to be pie in the sky
But the piss stench hallways and broken down lifts
Say the planners dream went wrong
If people were made to live in boxes
God would have given them string
To tie around their selves at bed time
And stop their dreams falling through the ceiling
And the public school boy computers
Keep spewing out our future
The house in the country designs the 14th floor
Old Mrs. Smith don't get out much more
Coitus interrupts 'cause of next doors rows
Your washing gets nicked when the lights go out
Baby's scream in the nightmare throng
