In 1982, rainfall decreased -17.3% and -44.0% for wet and dry seasons respectively The 1997 El Nino resulted in a decrease of water storage of about 33% at the Jatiluhur Reservoir and about 30% at the Rentang Reservoir in West Java. The harvested area decreased about 1.25 million ha (- 8.6%) and 1.18 million (-6.4%) in 1982 and 1997, respectively

12 Strengthtening Institution Establish a leading sub-sector institution both in national and regional levels Establish a sharing job and responsibilities among institutions in all levels Establish a forum among institutions of irrigation management in every level and among levels Prepare the guidelines and procedures for minimum service and irrigation audits Develop the guidelines for M&E for development and management of irrigation Develop a database of irrigation development and management Utilize the evaluation results to improve the managerial development and management

13 Human Resources Development Develop the concept and implementation of the principle of human capital to grow individual learners and organization learners Revitalize the training and empowerment units for farmers and bureaucracy Develop the participatory method in accordance with the socio-cultural communities Infrastructure Development and Rehabilitation Develop a map of potential areas for new irrigation system development Conduct dialogs among institutions on accelerated development of new irrigation system Change of mindset that rehabilitation, upgrade, and modernization of irrigation systems are efforts to improve provision-based irrigation management Perform new construction, major rehabilitation, upgrade and modernization participatorily and gradually in accordance to funding ability and people need.

14 Operation and Maintenance of Irrigation System Strentghten institution of O&M to develop the O&M culture Improve the capacity of O&M staffs as well as fulfill their work requirements Provide incentives and disincentives for O&M staffs Provide forum of sharing knowledge and experiences as well as its documentation Develop an O&M manual for each irrigation system which is flexible to anticipate climate change and other changes Provide O&M fund based on actual O&M requirements Develop a shared database among institutions to support the O&M activities Develop an information system based decision support for O&M activities.

15 Economic and Financial Arrangement Establish legal basis for irrigation financing policy from several source of income especially from the users and beneficiaries Conduct financial planning periodically Evaluate the completed irrigation financing schemes Develop the documentation process of the implementation of grants and loans for future lesson learn. Research Develop a documentation of outcomes of irrigation-related researches conducted by all institutions Conduct cooperation researches among research institutions and users Organize dialog between researchers and users to determine relevant research topics.
