Brief description of
institution/organization
Accelerated irrigated land use and optimization
of agriculture production through efficient soil-crop-water management without
resources degradation is essential in meeting the food and fibre needs of
India's population. Sustained and increased agriculture production is possible
only through an Integrated Participatory Development Approach where all
concerned are dedicated to Nation development. This requires the appropriate
training of all planners, field workers and farmers by a management institute,
equipped with the necessary tools and training facilities. The Irrigation
Management and Training Institute, Kota (Rajasthan) fulfils this
requirement.
The Institute was established in August 1984 under the Water
Resources Management and Training (WRMT) Project assisted by the United States
Agency for International Development (USAID).
Its main objectives are:
- Training the in-service personnel of Irrigation
and Agriculture Departments and farmers in irrigation management through regular
courses, workshops and seminars, to improve their job performance to optimize
agriculture production in the irrigated areas.
- Provide consultancy in
irrigation management and irrigated agriculture.
