Summary
Summary
With increasing water scarcity, there is greater pressure to re-allocate water from agriculture to other uses, and to put in place institutional arrangements to promote higher value uses of water. Based on research by the International Water Management Institute, which reviewed developed and developing countries around the world, this book describes and applies functional theory of river basin management, based on the idea that there is a minimum set of functions that must be carried out for successful river basins.
