• Sommario/riassunto: Effective irrigation and drainage systems are essential if growing demands for water resources are to be met. For the use of water for irrigation to be improved we must understand current levels of performance.

It provides guidelines for practitioners to enable them to design and carry out performance assessment and implement performance-based management.
