This report describes the results of different Agricultural Water Management (AWM) scenarios in the Mkindo watershed of the Wami River Basin in Tanzania. The work is part of the IWMI project entitled ‘Agricultural Water Management Solutions’ which aims to analyse the impacts and potential of AWM interventions to improve livelihoods at the community, and watershed scales and assess the opportunities, constraints and impacts of the use of AWM technologies.
Similar work has been done in two other watersheds, the Nariarlé watershed in Burkina Faso and the Jaldhaka watershed in West Bengal, India. The work in Mkindo watershed was done during November and December 2009 in cooperation with Soil Water Management Research Group of Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro, Tanzania.
This report was developed under the Agricultural Water Solutions (AgWater Solutions http://awmsolutions.iwmi.org/iwmi.org/) project coordinated by the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in partnership with SEI, FAO, IFPRI, IDE and CH2MHill. We thank the local communities, experts and the Soil Water Management Research Group of Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro for facilitating and contributing to the development of this work. This work was funded by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
