چکیده

Since the 1970's, a large number of individual field studies of diverse irrigation systems have been completed in Nepal. Some of these studies were undertaken by masters or doctoral students and are based on extensive periods of time in the field. Others were written on the basis of shorter periods in the field: rapid rural appraisals, brief reports, and field-site visits by expatriate advisors. Some were published accounts of irrigation systems in books published by the International Irrigation Management Institute (IIMI). Others were published by the Irrigation Management Center of the Department of Irrigation in Nepal.
