Book excerpt: This report derives from the importance of water for irrigation to the question, how will additional food be produced as competition for scarce land and water resources increases? The International Water Management Institute (IWMI), Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) provide a partial picture of supply and demand for food supply and irrigation-water by 2025 and 2030. The World Bank initiated a validation exercise in cooperation with these agencies to ensure that the models: consider a balanced range of assumptions and scenarios; introduce additional assumptions and scenarios; and replace, or fine-tune, some of them. It attempts to introduce into the forecasts the possible impacts of additional policy interventions and to evaluate their likely effects on the global projections of agriculture-water supply and demand. The validation exercise provides a review of the existing model structure and components, the assumptions made, the scenarios, and scenario results. Model assumptions, scenarios, and results of the revised response from the IWMI, FAO, and IFPRI are given as a part of the validation exercise as well as assumptions made and scenarios developed under different criteria and issues as raised by the group of experts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a view of irrigation technologies for smallholders in the context of improving rural livelihoods, especially in regard to the prospects for sub-Saharan Africa. The role of traditional technologies is evaluated and modern water distribution technologies, such as sprinkler and trickle irrigation, are reviewed. A broad classification has been made based on climate and the traditional agricultural background of the local people, which links technology options to specific places--to agricultural regions and to countries.

Download or read book Prospects for productive use of saline water in West Asia and North Africa written by and published by IWMI. This book was released on 2006 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of the potential to use saline water for irrigation in Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Tunisia concludes that it is technically feasible but its economic viability remains to be established. Expert opinion suggests that saline irrigated agriculture is most likely to succeed in the West Asia/North Africa region as a complement to small-scale mixed livestock and cropping farming systems. Precise quantification of the available saline water resources is not possible because of the lack of hard data. As a result, precise quantification of the likely impact of introducing saline irrigated agriculture on poverty alleviation and food security is also impossible, although anecdotal evidence suggests that this would be positive. The report argues that the environmental effects of saline irrigated agriculture--both positive and negative--need to be integrated into policies and decisions on the use of saline water. Uses other than agricultural (for example, amenity uses, industrial, landscaping, carbon sequestration or biomass production for energy) also need to be considered, and may be more socially and economically beneficial.

Download or read book Balanced Urban Development: Options and Strategies for Liveable Cities written by Basant Maheshwari and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unique synthesis of concepts and tools to examine natural resource, socio-economic, legal, policy and institutional issues that are important for managing urban growth into the future. The book will particularly help the reader to understand the current issues and challenges and develop strategies and practices to cope with future pressures of urbanisation and peri-urban land, water and energy use challenges. In particular, the book will help the reader to discover underlying principles for the planning of future cities and peri-urban regions in relation to: (i) Balanced urban development policies and institutions for future cities; (ii) Understanding the effects of land use change, population increase, and water demand on the liveability of cities; (iii) Long-term planning needs and transdisciplinary approaches to ensure the secured future for generations ahead; and (iv) Strategies to adapt the cities and land, water and energy uses for viable and liveable cities. There are growing concerns about water, food security and sustainability with increased urbanisation worldwide. For cities to be liveable and sustainable into the future there is a need to maintain the natural resource base and the ecosystem services in the peri-urban areas surrounding cities. This need is increasing under the looming spectre of global warming and climate change. This book will be of interest to policy makers, urban planners, researchers, post-graduate students in urban planning, environmental and water resources management, and managers in municipal councils.
