| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the study was to develop an irrigation management strategy in Myanmar through assessing the selected irrigation system in a typical rice growing area of the country. The study area was selected in the lower Myanmar. During the study, the hydrological information was monitored in the study area, and the information on agricultural and irrigation practices was collected by the interview with farmers and government officials.
The result of the study showed that the water supply was sufficient to meet the demand, but there is a lack of flexibility in water delivery. The outcome of the study implies the importance of institutional development in water management at both system and farm levels and capacity building of water users groups to promote farmer's participation in addition to the infrastructural development, particularly at the farm level.
