(a) For the local communities to access more economic benefits from irrigated agriculture, the Ministry allocated Kshs12.8 million in 2007/2008 and Kshs4.2 million in 2008/2009 financial years to rehabilitate these irrigation schemes. This year, the Ministry, through the National Irrigation Board (NIB) has entered into a consultancy with Sintex consultants to further improve, rehabilitate and expand Rapsu Irrigation Scheme. The beneficiaries of these schemes are also gradually prepared on operation and management of the schemes through irrigation water users associations. (b) During the financial year 2009/2010, Kshs3.16 million was allocated to the district irrigation office for irrigation development to further rehabilitate works for the schemesâ infrastructures."
