Abstract
To ensure food security and other
social needs, support profitable farms that create jobs,
reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and bolster resilience
to climate extremes and other shocks, agriculture must
become more productive, resource efficient, and
environmentally sustainable. This requires improvements in
water service provision and soil water management.
Sustaining agricultural water resources, enhancing
resilience for farmers, and improving the quality of water
service provision all require: institutional strengthening
by supporting reforms that increase accountability;
modernizing infrastructure and promoting innovation; and
encouraging data-based and participatory decision making by
all stakeholders.
