Growing Cities as Sources of Irrigation Water: Cities as Sources of Irrigation Water: an Indian Scenario 2

چکیده
support their peri-urban futures by providing irrigation water for food production. Over 1.1 million ha of land could be irrigated if the city waters are rendered safe for use. While the practice of periurban agriculture using city water is not a new phenomenon in India, its full potential has not been fully explored, due to poor/marginal quality and lack of adequate institutional arrangements and dialogue for its effective use. It is timely that inter-sectoral dialogue is focussed towards developing a wellintegrated water development plan for cities, which includes irrigation water as well.
