Difficulties in the tepetitlán irrigation system transfer, estado de México
Abstract
It is explored the Tepetitlán irrigation system transfer, a system
that was part of Irrigation District 033 in Estado de México.
We describe the construction of the irrigation system and its
expansion; the impact of agrarian distribution; the start of
administration by the Secretaría de Recursos Hidráulicos; and,
finally, the transfer to users. We describe the transfer process
and resistance by users to the bureaucratic model of transfer,
as well as the problematic organizational process for users and
the role of the Comisión Nacional del Agua in conflicts between
users. We point out the flexibility of the Comisión Nacional del
Agua in the transfer as Irrigation Unit as a result of the demands
made by users. The case study corresponds to the analysis of
the users’ organizations which emerge in order to administer,
improve and operate the irrigation system as a result of the
transfer policy; and also, in contrast with the official history,
the analysis of peculiarities in each Irrigation District.
