Проблема, которая решается применением практики |
Imperfections of the water management mechanism in the Isfara small transboundary river basin |
Shortage of irrigation water; Poor yields; Low irrigation efficiency; Eroded soil; Low income of farmers. |
Примененные в практике инструменты |
The principle of stakeholder engagement in decision-making associated with water management of small transboundary river;
IWRM planning technique |
Corn drip irrigation system |
Описание практики и ее результаты |
The river originates in Kyrgyzstan in Ak-Suu Glacier on the northern slope of the Turkestan Ridge 3,193 m above sea level. The Ak-Suu ruins are located close to the river source. Near the settlement of Karavshin, the river is called the same name. Crossing the national border, the river merges with the Kshemysh River (Kshemyshsai) and, further on, the river receives the name of Isfara.
Actions:
Establishment of stakeholder groups, i.e. Small Basin Councils (SBC) representing local authorities, NGOs, water users and local communities. SBC secretariats independently hold internal semi-annual meetings. Thus, the SBCs serve as platforms to exchange opinions and information as well as take joint decisions associated with the enhancement of the overall situation in the river basin.
Results:
Creation of national Small Basin Councils (SBC) on the Isfara River allowed a platform for exchanging opinions and information as well as for drawing joint decisions to improve the overall situation in the Isfara River Basin, including the development of the IWRM basin plan for the target basin. |
Actions:
- Project design and budgeting, procurement of drip irrigation system;
- Installation of drip irrigation system, corn planting and cultivation, crop care;
- Accounting of water and resources.
Results:
Financial and economic:
increased labor productivity and farmer incomes, reduced production costs.
Ecological:
production of ecologically clean goods; prevention of water losses and soil erosion as well as improving soil ecological and reclamation condition.
Technical:
twofold (52%) increase of corn yields compared to furrow irrigation, 51% saving of irrigation water.
Social:
increased wellbeing of local residents due to better agricultural yields; reduced hard manual labor. |
Какие уроки и рекомендации можно извлечь из практики |
Lessons learnt:
Introduction of IWRM principles is the pre-requisite of stable and fair water supply irrespective of a given water user’s location.
Recommendations:
Currently, when local stakeholders are represented in SBCs and are engaged in joint water management, it is necessary to hold thematic seminars to ensure sustainability of SBC operations in the future. In the long term, it might be possible to establish a joint body to manage the whole river basin. |
Lessons learnt:
Application of drip irrigation ensures higher corn productivity and water saving as well as allows improving soil structure, watering efficiency, etc.
Recommendations:
It is necessary to widely introduce drip irrigation systems to build up the efficiency of water and land resources, reduce manual labor costs and save irrigation water. |

Краткая информация о проекте |
Development and implementation of basin plans constitute principal elements of integrated water resources management. Multi-agency coordination mechanism via basin councils or coordination groups is an important advantage of IWRM. This approach allows streamlined coordination and synergy of actions on all levels of management hierarchy.
Project title: Stakeholder partnership in joint policy-making: assistance to transboundary cooperation in small watersheds of Central Asia.
Project duration: Apr 2012-Oct 2016
Project goal and objectives: introduction of the integrated water resources management (IWRM) practice in three transboundary watersheds and its scaling-up in Central Asia.
Project beneficiaries: communities of the Isfara small transboundary river basin, specialists of water and environmental agencies, farmers.
Project implementer: USAID/CAREC. |
Project title: Drip irrigation of corn in Gissar District.
Project duration: early 2000-late 2003.
