Working Group 4 Planned Activities (Central Asia and the Caucasus)
1. • Improve water use
efficiency through
innovative
technologies in
irrigation and farming
in cereals, potato,
vegetable, horticultural
and fodder crops
WORKING GROUP 4
• Повышение
эффективности
использования воды
с помощью
инновационных
технологий в
ирригации и
возделывании
зерновых, картофеля,
овощей, плодовых и
кормовых культур
Modelator/Facilitator: Akmal Karimov
Rapporteur: Oyture Anarbekov, Participants 12 people
3. IDO 2. More stable and higher per capita income for
intensifiable households
Potential contribution to IDO 6: More integrated,
effective and connected service delivery institutions
underpinning system intensification
Intermediate Development
Outcomes
4. I. Synthesis analysis of water saving technologies
and practices of cultivation of the different crops
currently applied and with potential for application
by farmers; (Priority 1)
II. Technology Adaption/Demosites of water saving
technologies and farming practices with improved
water use efficiency; (Priority 2)
III. Studying economic incentives for adoption of
best agricultural and water saving technologies;
(Priority 3)
Actions
5. Indicators (activity related):
Adaption rate
Yields of crops
Water productivity
Energy productivity
Investment cost
Economic assessment
…..
Outputs: Synthesis report, rate of adoption the technology;
Outcomes: Donors and Governments informed, use and
apply the technologies
I. Synthesis analysis of water saving
technologies and farming practices
6. I. Synthesis analysis of water saving
technologies and farming practices
Outputs (log-frame):
Tools, methods, processes and capacity of NARES to create
and customize improved intensification options to local
circumstances across scaling domains compiled in synthesis
report
Synthesis report, rate of adoption the technology;
Outcomes (log-frame):
NARES use tools, methods and processes to generate and
customise improved intensification options for targeted groups
of intesifiable households
Farmers, WUAs, Donors and Governments informed, use and
apply the technologies
7. Indicators:
Places with shortage of water
The demosites for different activities
Demosites under different conditions
Demosites under different water sources
Set-up demosites within irrigation system (hierarchical
integration)
Proposal to include the modelling
Outputs: Adaptive technologies;
Outcomes: Improved yields, water productivity, energy
productivity
II. Techology Adaption/Demosites of water
saving technologies and farming practices
8. Duration:
Action 1: Synthesis analysis 2 years (2013-
2015)
Action 2: Demosites 4 years (2015-2019)
Action 3: Study Incentives (economic,..)
Importance of linking with other activities –
creating joint demosites, joint experiments
Recommendations/remarks.
9. 1) Studies under CRP 1.1. covers farm and WUA level with
determining up-scaling opportunities at larger level.
The higher level of water management, i.e. like Basins covers
CRP 5.
2) There should be obligatory linkage of demonstration sites
of this actions with DS of other actions (Joint DSs).
Recommendations/remarks.
10. Two category of partners: Useful partners and Obliged
partners.
Under the obliged partners: MAWR, Khokimiyats of
Province, Districts, i.e. local authorities (who should be
informed)
Under the useful partners:
Karakalpak Branch of Scientific Center of Water Problems
(TIIM);
Turkmen Giprovodkhoz in coordination with Academy of
Science of Turkmenistan;
Fergana branch of the Uzbek Research Cotton Growing
Institute
