Agency Managed Irrigation Systems (AMIS)
An "Agency Managed Irrigation System" (AMIS) is a centralized irrigation approach where water resources are supervised and directed by a designated agency or organization, rather than individual farmers or local communities.
This system provides benefits of centralized planning and technical expertise but may face challenges in addressing individual farmer needs, leading to transparency issues and limited farmer participation. Each region may implement agency-managed systems differently, considering their unique institutional, political, and cultural contexts. Despite its drawbacks, AMIS plays a crucial role in efficient water allocation and infrastructure development, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices.
