10. ▪ Reliable access to sufficient quantity and quality water is a critical constraint to agricultural growth and
development in the Continent. Estimated that 29% more irrigated land will be required by the year 2025 in
order to sustain food production and reduce poverty on the continent (IWMI2016).
▪ High climatic variability- unreliability of rainfall (intensity and duration), widespread aridity and low
productivity with associated challenges of hunger, high food import bill etc
▪ The African Union, through a number of Decisions and Declarations (eg, 2003-CAADP, 2004-Sirte Declaration,
2006-Abuja Food security Summit, 2008-Sharm El shiek, 2013- Agenda2063, 2014-Malabo) stressed the
importance of IDAWM in driving agricultural growth and development in the Continent
The Need
agbonlahoru@africa-union.org
11. Purpose and Structure of the Framework
Purpose:
- support regional and country level design and review of Agricultural Water
Management (AWM) policy and strategic plans
- stimulate interest in irrigation and agricultural water development efforts by
providing a suite of development options that can be exploited
- act as a prompt for new ideas and detail in regional and country institutional
interventions and project plans
Structure
Chapter1: The Context, The Rationale, Methodology, Categorization of the
agricultural water management spectrum
Chapter2: Opportunities and Challenges in IDAWM in the continent and Lessons
learnt
Chapter 3: The development pathways- rational and key interventions needed for
success, cross-cutting development issues, Conclusion and Recommendations
agbonlahoru@africa-union.org
13. Pathway 1
Improved water control and watershed management in a rain-fed environment
❑Rationale:
- Rain-fed agriculture covers more land
- Dominant production system practised by the majority of small holders
who represents over 80% of farm producers
❑Sustainability Proposal:
- Introduction of water harvesting techniques in response to landform,
climate and cropping preferences
- Institutional reform initiatives to achieve better coordinated local water
resource use;
- Agro-credit supports to facilitate adoption of WHC technologies
- Use of climate-smart agricultural (CSA) principles and promotion of the
related suite of approaches, tailored for local conditions, cropping patterns
and markets
- Attention to soil conservation hot-spots, including linkages with upstream
land-use and downstream irrigation abstraction requirements
14. Pathway 2
Farmer-led irrigation Development (FLID) Process
❑Rationale:
- Dominated irrigation expansion in the last two decades, and typically irrigate
small plots (small holder),
- Ease of integration into existing cultural practices viz multiple cropping
- Technologies are cheap, easily moved between plots and easy to maintain
❑Sustainability Proposal:
- Institutional and legal reforms eg. and tenure (land and water) security
- Elimination or reduction of import tariffs on pumps and irrigation equipment
- National standards can protect consumers interests in regard to pumping
technology (petrol, diesel) and solar energy technology.
- Knowledge development and training on usage and maintenance of small-
pumps and solar-energy technologies.
- Specific enabling water-law reforms to reduce exposure to water-tenure risks
- Access to affordable silt control and irrigation technology
- access to modern financing technology,
15. ❑Rationale:
- In most countries, public large scale Irrigation schemes already exist, the
huge sunk cost needs to be recovered.
- Most of the large scale schemes are performing below capacity
- Modernisation of existing schemes makes sense as a priority because of
the sunk economic costs and the expectation of higher returns than for
new schemes.
❑Sustainability proposal:
- Enabling legal reforms in regard to land-consolidation
- Formalise WUO powers
- Reforms related to improving Management Operation Maintenance on
public schemes.
- Promote use of smart technologies to allow volumetric billing
- Drive attitudinal change at farmers’ level to move from socially-oriented
scheme origins to business production
- Institute private-sector/agency management of bulk-water supply systems
Pathway 3
Large-scale irrigation scheme renovation/modernisation
Pathway 3
16. ❑Rationale:
- Water shortages are increasingly across Africa and rapid
urbanisation side by side with high water waste.
- Growth of peri-urban agriculture
❑Sustainability proposal:
- Regulatory measures to ensure safe water quality related to
different crops, and on-farm practices and technologies to ensure a
safe working environment, and adequately safe products
- Promote and adapt safety guideline, to the social, technical,
economic, and environmental circumstances of the countries.
- Strong campaigns on awareness creation and public sensitization on
treatment and use of waste water for irrigation
- Research, knowledge development and application of measures to
ensure safe use of waste water for irrigation
Pathway 4
Unconventional water use for irrigation (waste water treatment, recycle and reuse)
Pathway 4
17. As with all Continental blueprint, The IDAWM framework
acknowledges:
- A demand and opportunity for the expansion and intensification of
AWM practices across the continent.
- The significant diversities in agro-ecological conditions, status of AWM
schemes and the capacities for initiating, planning and implementing
the options across the continent.
- similarities in the challenges facing irrigation development and AWM
across Africa
- The Pathways proposed in the Framework are not mutually exclusive
- The sovereignty and sovereign equality of MS as duly emphasized in
the Constitutive Act of the African Union.
- That all MS have the right to decide on and adopt their own policies
and sector development agendas.

22. KEY challenges to effective AWM
Tarpaulins
Hermetic Bags
Mechanical Threshing
With a focus on managing rainwater
➢ Very low Levels of Planning for effective and sustainable use of
rainwater on the watershed; leading to:
❖ Wastage, conflicts and misallocation of resources especially
rainwater, and
❖ Zero-sum competition among sectors (crops, livestock, forestry,
energy, domestic water, wildlife, aquaculture, etc.)
➢ Limited Investment (public and private) in watershed management
initiatives such as rainwater water harvesting and storage
➢ Low Levels of Adoption of knowledge-based precision management
of water in rain-fed farming
➢ Limited Forecasting and/or insurance of seasonal rainfall variability,
to enhancing resilience of rain-fed agricultural systems
➢ Inadequate institutions and institutional capacities for dealing with
the required planning and management of watersheds and their
land and water resources
23. ➢ Under-utilizing its huge land potential for agriculture and food, and is thus increasingly dependent on
imports for the rapidly growing food demand/markets in the urban areas – leading to annual food imports
(into SSA) worth >$35 billion and raising;
➢ Registering lowest yields due to failure to achieve optimal returns to land, improved varieties, certified
seed, and fertilizers, due to dry spells during the cropping season;
➢ Losing in the competition for financing (equity and debt) and the youthful labour – for rainfed farming;
➢ Slow in ensuring and sustaining supply of nutritious food for balance diets, for a population that could
reach 2 billion by 2050;
➢ Facing sub-optimal resilience in its agricultural and food systems, in the face of:
o Shocks emanating from climate variability & change, pests & disease, and market fluctuations &
failure; and
o Risk aversive financing systems.
Consequently, SSA is….
24. Policy environment & required change
Rainfall is often adequate in volume, to quadruple productivity
of rain-fed agriculture. The problem is variability in timing and
rate of fall, which requires prioritization of rainwater harvesting
and storage. However, this is a critical policy gap, because:
❖ There is often no specific policy targeting management of
water on the farm (one key indicator of this – is the limited
mechanized sub-soil tillage and the focus on seed, fertilizers
and the disc plow)
❖ The local runoff (on the farm, in gullies, in temporary
impoundments and in shallow wells), is rarely counted
and/or managed as water.
❖ There is a wide divide in the public institutions overseeing
agriculture, water resources, land resources and the
environment
Leading to limited public investment and/or support to the
private investment in rainwater harvesting and storage for
supplementary irrigation. Fluctuations in food production

25. Which brings us to our additions to the key interventions
prioritized by the IDAWM Framework
1) Put the modern ICT (remote sensing; GIS, Big Data and IoT) to use to improve forecasting of rainfall and
production of season-specific guidelines for water control and watershed management in rain-fed
farming
2) Link the public sector investment in physical infrastructure (such as roads), to RWH that support SHFs’
efforts to increase water available for intensification of rain-fed farming.
3) Add weather-indexed insurance to the tools for adaptation and managing climate change, especially to
underwrite the constant need to improve technologies and practices as climate changes.
4) Allocate resources based on critical comparisons of return to investment of irrigation vs improved rainfed
water management
5) Support efficient access to technology, enabled by:
✓ Enhanced knowledge of the farmers through promotion, demonstrations and capacity development;
✓ Smart financing systems;
✓ Involvement of local SMEs in R&D focused at technology prospecting, adaptation and diffusion; and
✓ The building of capacities and interests of the youth to drive the leapfrog in technologies – especially
in the ICT systems mentioned above.
26. Way forward in galvanizing investment
1) Prioritize complementary Public sector investment in resources
governance; capacity building of individual farmers and their
institutions; and infrastructure along the entire value chain to
enhance access to markets and drive commercialization of rain-
fed farming;
2) Attract private sector investment especially by SMEs supplying
inputs; hire services; and access to markets;
3) Drive the development and/or implementation of supportive
fiscal regimes removing/minimizing barriers to accessing finance
(esp. equity) for SHFs and relevant businesses supporting them;
and
4) Develop relevant and innovative business models for specific
target groups of smallholders and SMEs (aka the Hidden Middle).

Humid : rice production
Dry : cash crops
Mostly gravity-fed
with wide range of crops
39. 20th Century realities
• Flood irrigation schemes dominated - surface
methods not likely to change in Africa
• Mostly old – 30 to 60 years
• Water resource from 1960’s to 1990’s has
changed – sectoral allocations, climate-change
• Centralized-management history - farmers had
little voice and were largely controlled
• Biggest failures linked to pumped systems,
especially fossil fuels
• Irrigation development for social and
settlement reasons – not business
• Cut-and-paste irrigation thinking – design and
management …
A quick look back …. and then to the future
Rehabilitate-neglect-rebuild cycle
a ‘wicked’ problem
40. Reframe the
‘modernization’ approach
• Service-oriented irrigation
scheme governance
• Market-farming for financial
sustainability
• Water productivity as an
overarching goal
• Infrastructure serves these
agendas
farmersoperator
41. Service – oriented governance
• Legal environment – rights &
responsibilities
• Realistic service-levels agreed
• Payment based on delivery of services
Farmer participation with agency
• Power in rule-making & designs
• Realism about OMM delegations –
capacity and organizational overload
• Responsibilities limited to tertiary and
perhaps secondary levels?
Irrigation organization managing 400 ha scheme in
East Africa - affordability to pay and willingness to pay
are low – water supply is unreliable so why pay?
Representation and inclusiveness have to be tackled to
achieve equitable service provision
42. Governance - bulk-supply
realities !!??
Irrigation agencies have historically
performed weakly across Africa -
with exceptions
Private sector operational
involvement in PPPs has been poor
- need low-risk solutions in a
smallholder farming context.
Management contracts where
Government carries most of the
risk.
43. Governance - bulk-supply
Agri-business lease &
operator
• Block leasing to agribusiness
estates who provide water
services smallholders
• Land-mapping and institutions
for formalization of medium-
term leases
Smallholder
irrigators
Agri-estate & operator
44. InfrastructureAgronomy
Actions guided by water productivity
and water-use efficiency
Invest in irrigation agronomy - crop /
financial / labour productivity
Modernize with emphasis on water control
- infrastructure and organizations
- ICT for monitoring & compliance
Efficiency ?! Focus where greatest returns
- transmission : pipelines replace canals
- non-recoverable fraction

53. 2. Untreated
wastewater from
sewers and stormwater
runoff drains
Multi-barrier Approach for Safe Use
Mostly farmer-led (Pathway 2)
IWMI, 2011
54. Multi-barrier Approach for Safe Use
WHO’s multi-
barrier approach
to reduce health
risks in wastewater
reuse
• This model helps to reduce risks where wastewater treatment
systems are lacking and farmers use directly or indirectly
untreated, partially treated or diluted wastewater.
55. E.g. Reduction of fecal coliforms on lettuce
WHO’s multi-barrier approach to reduce
health risks in wastewater reuse
Safe lettuce productRemoves 2-3 log10 units
from final product
Application of handling
safety measures in markets
Removes 1 log10 units
from final product
Application of

56. Examples of incentives to trigger change for
farmers and consumers to adopt safety measures
Incentive Description
Tenure security As many farmers in peri-urban areas who use wastewater are challenged with land
tenure security, it could be used to serve as an incentive for adopting good on-farm
practices.
Credit on condition Low-interest credit could be provided to farmers applying safe irrigation methods. In
this case, there is need for monitoring farmers’ compliance with their contractual
obligations.
Premium sales prices through Quality Assurance and Branding
57. 3. Fecal sludge treatment
and recycling
Recycling of water: not much
But there is opportunity for recycling of organic
matter and nutrients – as input for irrigation
Moyo F., 2020
Enhanced water holding capacity
Link to pathway 1 – Improved water control under rain-fed
farming
58. 1. Carefully plan urban wastewater management to enable agricultural
reuse
• Issues such as location and land availability are critical
2. Policy and institutional framework
• Setting realistic quality standards that encourage reuse
• Adequate enforcement
• Etc.
3. Explore solutions such as groundwater recharge
