Paragraph 5(Recommendations)
Paragraph 5 : Recommendation
1. The multiple use, roles, values, services and other aspects of agricultural water in paddy farming regions should be recognized, evaluated and incorporated into water resources development plans and management strategies.
2. The traditional wisdom and experiences of local communities and the value of their participation in water planning and management should be fully acknowledged.
3. It should be recognized that governmental assistance (e.g. policy, legal, financial, and capacity building and educational services) is important and often necessary for adequate investment, modernization and management of rice water systems, in order to achieve food security, to alleviate poverty and to conserve ecosystems.
