Examination Committee German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), Government of the Federal Republic of German Scholarship donor text series technical report th Bangkok Asian Institute of Technology 1994 continuing eng 75 leaves To evaluate the "Haizda Embankment Project" contribution, overall condition of the farmers (within the project area) what was before the project construction as well as the present situation were considered. Expected outcome from the project implementation was also considered in this regard. The findings of this study are, due to the project construction farmers are giving more attention for Boro cultivation as well as use of HYV seeds, use of fertilizer, use of insecticide, labor employment and farmers yearly income significantly increased. On the other hand, crop damages through early flood, insufficient irrigation water and drainage congestion significantly decreased. Overall water management situation and transportation facilities are increased within the project area except there are little adverse effect on fish production within the project area and water management situation outside the project area somewhat interrupted through the construction of embankment. Except little adverse effect, the project has several fruitful impacts on the project area but not at the expected level. The causes behind it may be as : firstly, the project was constructed only two years before and secondly, some of the essential components of the project not yet been installed. Finally, it is seem that the partial flood control projects are more suitable rather than the full control or polder type of projects in the Haor areas of Bangladesh.
