The study conducted in Pakistan's Punjab deals intensively with the
prevailing contingencies which may support or hinder farmer's
participation in Water Users' Associations for the management of
irrigation water. The changes in management of irrigation water at
the watercourse level through active participation of the water
users were examined on the basis of an empirical survey. The main
aim of the study was to identify prevailing formal and informal
methods for the management of irrigation water at farm level
through active participation of the water users. The institutional,
socio-political and cultural factors were considered to be the
basic influences within the context of irrigation water management
which determine the structure and efficiency of WUAs. The
socio-economic regulatory patterns such as family, caste and
'biraderi', as primary social units, are playing a dominant role in
determining the direction and extent of activities of the WUA. In
addition, the physical as well as the social environment
surrounding the water users have a great impact in shaping the
collective actions for the management of irrigation water.
