Overview

Multisite evaluation reveals hardware-dominated progress with persistent human resource gaps across six irrigation schemes, highlighting the need for institutional and managerial reforms.

Key Points

To assess the implementation of irrigation modernization policy and evaluate technical versus institutional readiness across six irrigation schemes in Indonesia.
Evaluated six irrigation schemes in Indonesia during 2024–2025 using the Irrigation Modernization Readiness Index (IKMI), quadrant analysis, and an open-systems framework.
Gathered quantitative and qualitative data through field surveys, structured observations, interviews, and focus group discussions with farmers, operation and maintenance staff, and government officials.
Physical infrastructure consistently achieved the highest readiness scores across all sites, while human resources remained the weakest pillar of modernization.
Only two of the six schemes (Talang and Manganti) achieved high readiness ratings of ≥ 80, whereas the remaining schemes showed modest gains restricted by institutional and managerial limitations.
