RAMIREZ-SANCHEZ, Albina Sarahí; IBARRA-ARMENTA, Cristina Isabel e LEOS-RODRIGUEZ, Juan Antonio. Evaluation of the irrigation infrastructure management by the Users Associations of Irrigation Modules: The case of Culiacan 010, modules I-3 and IV-3, 2011-2017. Acta univ [online]. 2021, vol.31, e2807. Epub 16-Fev-2022. ISSN 2007-9621. https://doi.org/10.15174/au.2021.2807.
Upon the administrative decentralization of hydro-agricultural infrastructure, irrigation users’ associations were established both in Mexico and other countries. The objective of this research was to evaluate the administrative effectiveness of two Associations of Users of Agricultural Producers (AUAP) during 2011-2017 through financial indicators and by contrasting it with the principles of adequacy of the World Bank and the in force national regulations. Although module IV-3 was found to be more administrative effective than module I-3, both modules showed violations of the national regulations. The National Water Commission (Conagua, from its Spanish acronym) did not execute sanctions. This indicates the presence of informal and/or clientelist arrangements, risking the sustainability of the modules, which in turn do not comply with the principles of the World Bank. This work provides evidence regarding the administration of the AUAP which have not been evaluated at the national level thus far.
