    Brazil, China, India

    Brazil, China and India have seen
    falling poverty in their reform periods, but to varying
    degrees and for different reasons. History left China with
    favorable initial conditions for rapid poverty reduction
    through market-led economic growth; at the outset of the
    reform process there were ample distortions to remove and

    Irrigation has made a major contribution
    to poverty reduction in the past decades, enabling higher
    yields and better nutrition. Despite these achievements,
    large-scale irrigation schemes have usually yielded low

    from new construction toward rehabilitation and policy
