This book is based on Suman Gautam’s doctoral research with the Irrigation and Water Engineering Group, Wageningen University, the Netherlands. Groundwater development for irrigation using deep as well as shallow tube wells has been a key focus in rural development strategies in the terai of Nepal for nearly three decades. Yet, there has been little study of how groundwater is used alone or in conjunction with other sources of water for irrigation and what transformations in governance and production these technology choices relate with.
