This publication provides a synthesis of available research information
on wetland rice production, rice-based cropping systems, water
management and socioeconomics of crop diversification. Also included
is a collection of abstracts of literature on these subjects. The
aim is to provide benchmark information to researchers, students,
managers and policy makers for research planning and decision
making.
Research network on irrigation management for
diversified cropping in rice-based systems
1989 (November). x + 150 p. 85. Softcover. ISBN 92-9090-118-7.
Price US$17.50. US$9.50 (developing countries).
This book reports the proceedings of an organizational and planning
workshop for a research network on title subject in late 1988 in
Bangkok, Thailand. In addition, eight papers on irrigating nonrice
crops, and discussions of each, are included. Discussions leading to
the establishment of a research network involving researchers from
eight humid tropical Asian countries where irrigated rice predominates
during wet season are presented in conclusion.
RESEARCH PAPERS
Research Papers publish, in a more condensed format, principal
findings, especially those that seem to be of more general relevance.
Such papers may be derived directly from IIMl's field-work or commissioned.

Research priorities for irrigation management in Asia:
An overview of research in irrigation management in
Asia
Research Paper No 1. 1985. ii + 20 p. A4. Stapled. (out of print).
This document presents two papers that provide interpretative
summaries of the discussion and summary of the workshop "Research
Priorities for Irrigation Management in Asia," held at IlMl
head quarters 6-11 January 1985. The first provides a conceptual
frameworkfor irrigation management research. The second summarizes
the conceptual evolution of irrigation management in terms of
conventional disciplinary and holistic, systems-oriented approaches.
