This report details the methodology and outcomes of an approach developed to support irrigation associations in Mozambique as part of the project “Increasing Irrigation Water Productivity In Mozambique, Tanzania And Zimbabwe Through On-Farm Monitoring, Adaptive Management And Agricultural Platforms” (ACIAR funding).
