The document discusses Indonesia's management of its 33.4 million hectares of lowland areas, 10.9 million hectares of which are suitable for agriculture. It notes that current lowland irrigation infrastructure is in poor condition, water management systems need improvement, and irrigation institutions and human resources are insufficient. The government plans to improve lowland irrigation management over several phases from 2013-2025 to reduce carbon emissions, land subsidence, and increase agricultural productivity and farmers' incomes. Conducting the project is expected to positively impact the lowland areas.

Comprehensive management of lowland Irrigation

Background and Justification


Ministry of public works has been prepared the Government Regulation Draft on lowland and it's in the final stages for approval of the ministry of environment and subsequent of the President, the draft is regulate the management of protected lowland and cultivated lowland which includes lowland irrigation management.

Total areas of lowland

33,4 million hectares

Background and Justification


LOWLAND 33.4 Million Ha

POTENTIAL FOR AGRICULTURE 10,920,977 Ha

CONSERVATION (peatland) 22,479,023 Ha

TIDAL LOWLAND 8,444,219 Ha

NON TIDAL LOWLAND 2,357,913 Ha

Has not been Cultivated 5,491,074 Ha

By Farmer 1,636,896 Ha

By Government 495,574 Ha

By Farmer 606,657Ha

Background and Justification


Very promising for use in support of food security, with the prioritize of lowland areas that have been cultivated by agricultural activities and the area that has been utilized by the plantation companies if it's possible, but if not the area should be protected.

Background and Justification


the possibility of conducting participatory activities on lowland is quite large, because farmers in lowland area is landowners farmers and concern for the infrastructure that was built for irrigation is large enough, it is different with farmers in Java usually the land is not owned by the farmers but by an investor for the purpose of investment, so that participatory is less because farmers are sharecroppers and not the owner of the land, less in sense of belonging. Infrastructure support from the Ministry of Public Works to meet the management of the water system in the lowland area. If there is a shortage of operators, Operations and Maintenance activities can be done by: 1. Participatory, 2. Tasks (Tugas Pembantuan), or

Background and Justification


Referring to Act No. 22 OF 1999 on local government, Rural areas are areas that have the major activity are agricultural , including natural resource management, with the function of composition as a rural settlements, government services, social services, and economic activities.

Condition of Lowlands Irrigation


Collect data to determine the successful water management in lowlands irrigation; lowlands irrigation infrastructure, irrigation management institutions and human resources. Current situation of lowlands irrigation management are:

a. Irrigation infrastructure condition of some irrigation infrastructure are almost damaged; some are poor of flood control; some are open drainage system; ground water table is uncontrolled; tertiary system is inadequate. b. Water management system Poor Water resources management in some areas.
c. Institution of water management Need to implementing the Operation and Maintenance; Provincial and District Irrigation commission less functional, WUA/WUAs mostly has not been formed and works fine.

Condition of Lowlands Irrigation


d. Human resources less in quantity, farmers participation has not been conducted intensively. e. Conditions of uneven distribution of agricultural products, as well as the necessary role of BULOG (Government logistics agency) and ministries of transportation, agricultural crop storage infrastructure needs to be improved BULOG authority. f. Supporting infrastructure in the lowland that have been developed, such as electricity.

g. Cultivation method Need to educate the farmers about the good cultivation method.
h. To increase the farmer income BULOG should buy the crops from the famers with the decent price.

Action Plan
Phase of the improvement of lowlands irrigation are as follows: 1. Preparation phase, Collecting the data (2013 2014) 2. Trial phase (2014 2016)

3. Implementation phase of partly improvement lowland irrigation (2015 2020)


4. Implementation phase of fully improvement lowland irrigation (2021 2025)

Project Impact
Not conducted by the project 1. The decrease of lowlands irrigation performances 2. High of carbon emission if in peatland area --> peat decomposition and Fire 3. The decrease in agricultural productivity 4. Land subsidence --> Permanent flood 5. changes the plant --> from paddy to palm oil 6. Farmers income decrease --> farmers dont have a passion to do the cultivation.

Project Impact
Conducted by the project 1. Low of carbon emission (Reduce peat decomposition and Reduce fire) --> groundwater table should be high. 2. Reduce land subsidence --> Reduce permanent floods

3. Better irrigation infrastructure


4. lowland irrigation management system are more effective (running well).

5. Giving contributions to agricultural productions, agricultural economics, rural economy and national
