- Title
- Ethiopia River Basins Layout
- Abstract
All the countries of the IGAD region recognize the potential of irrigation as a means to substantially raise agricultural productivity and improve their food security situations. Yields from irrigated agriculture can be higher than non-irrigated agriculture by a factor of three or more times. This has been demonstrated in Ethiopia, Kenya and Sudan. In Sudan, for instance, output from irrigation constitutes about 60% of total agricultural output, while in Kenya it is about 18% of total agricultural output. Most of the countries have therefore plans for expanding irrigated agriculture as well as rain-fed agriculture.
