Abstract
A key element in the debate is the role of irrigation. This paper assesses alternative irrigation investment policies in the context of future food crop supply and demand in Indonesia. Past trends in irrigation sector development are discussed; results are presented of a model of government irrigation investment behavior in Indonesia; alternative irrigation investment scenarios are examined in a projections and policy model; and policy implications for irrigation investment and management are discussed.
