D development of syst me agricultural country d dependent l am improvement and good management of the syst me d agricultural irrigation conscious d a saint and respectful environment. Studies have established that the potential for development of l irrigation is low and the development of irrigation l d s av re problem routine. L d Anjouan, 203 ha had t s c to d purpose of ann 1970s as potentially irrigable and l the MOH li 100 ha in 1973. Altogether, in 1987, the e quip for irrigation in mastering total/partial surface was 130 ha, then 85 ha were r really irrigu s. Costs of mobilization and distribution are tr s s lev. Indeed, l am agricultural rim very s irrigu p management has incorporated these res d decades last a priority of size in the countrys economic plans.
