Abstract:	"There is an increasing recognition of the need for improved approaches for integrated water resources management (IWRM). In many river basins irrigation is the largest water use, and attention must be paid to its socioeconomic and environmental impacts, and to the potential for multiple-use of irrigation systems. This requires improved approaches for the planning, impact assessment and management of irrigation projects, and an important component, the assessment and management of impacts on inland fisheries."
