ANALYSIS OF REHABILITATION PRIORITY OF IRRIGATION INFRASTRUCTURE
ABSTRACT: The decreasing service function of the
technical irrigation system should be supported by routine and periodical maintenance and
rehabilitation which needs
human resource and
costs. Since limited
resource is a
problem to the government, an analysis
of rehabilitation priority
is required for
9 irrigation area
in Kabupaten Purworejo. Rehabilitation priority
analysis to the
technical irrigation system
taken in this
study was carried
out by assessing
theirrigation water service function, water availability, and functional
area. The service function assessment was based on the totally
disturbed criteria, semi
disturbed criteria, or
not disturbed criteria.
Results of the
analysis showed that
the first priority was for increasing the irrigation system status from
semi technical to technical irrigation. The first priority was Tegalduren
(small and semi technical irrigation) and the last was Krasak (small and technical
irrigation). The next priority was large,
medium and average
irrigation system. Such
condition implied that
rehabilitation for small (technical) irrigation area was
organized by the farmers themselves.
