Irrigation Order in the Nara Basin (Japan)
The «irrigation order» consists of the customs underlying the socio-economic control of water ressources and the different types of agricultural production and management resulting from this control. In the Nara Basin (Japan), this order is structured around village communities under natural conditions made difficult by overcrowding and the considerable water needs entailed by rice cultivation. The improvement of irrigation by the Yoshino-river development project has brought about a truly capitalist revolution and a new logic in the irrigation order which is readily reflected in the landscape.
