The increased relevance of water is recognized in the new The increased relevance of water is recognized in the new strategy:strategy:
A critical resource for development, water is a looming crisis, especially for poor countries if present practices continue
Increased resource degradation in upper basins and sustainability
less water is a severe limitation for global and national food security
Need more crop per drop (Double productivity in 30 years)
Rural poor lack water and sanitation services
Water management contributes directly to reduce vulnerability, poverty alleviation, local food security and access to natural resources
Watersheds and river flows (riverine ecology) must be protected

Increase Research on new “water-efficient” plants and production systems
Adjust cropping patterns to Global Trade, prices and new
market opportunities
Study production systems for
irrigated agriculture. Pilot country studies. High value crops and diversification; Controlled agricultural environment and green houses; Effluent water and recycling; Modern methods of water delivery and management of low
quality water; and Assistance/capacity needs for semi-subsistence
farmers for their transformation.

What needs to be done to achieve our objective:What needs to be done to achieve our objective:
1. Flexible and innovative approaches to projects in addition to the expansion of current best practices: increased reliance on community driven development; use of multi-sectoral lending approach where appropriate; select instruments according to client readiness and conditions; and greater participation in poverty assessments to ensure better diagnosis,
strategy, and design of proposed interventions.
2. Obtain Bank management support for implementing the updated strategy, and secure their commitment to hold country directors accountable for reaching rural strategy objectives.
3. Regional and national strategies used as the framework of implementation.
4. Multi-sectoral “RURAL ALLIANCE” created on Bank- and regional levels plays coordinating and monitoring role.
