MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: A central issue around which the recent growth literature has evolved is that of sustainable development. In this perspective, expansions of interest in the analyzing of water resources and the problems to which they are applied should be taken in account. In order to reducing and rationalizing water consumption in agricultural irrigation in Tunisia, an essential factor for the protection of water resources and for a sustainable development, we propose some policy recommendations. This article attempts to further analysis of the role of new options for a better management of irrigation water. It takes into account some potential forms of technological innovation for sustainable development. For this purpose, this paper tries to give some possible reflections that help us to develop the analytical tool that may help us to improving the way towards the amplification of the analysis paradigm.
