The 21st ICID Congress on Irrigation and Drainage: "Water Productivity towards Food Security"
The International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) organizes its International Congress on theme of global interests - every three years in one of its member countries. Accordingly, the 21st ICID Congress on Irrigation and Drainage will be organized during 15-23 October 2011 at Tehran, Iran.
Also Micro-Irrigation Congress organizes every 5 years in one of ICID member countries. Therefore the 8th International Micro-Irrigation Congress will be simultaneously held with 21st Congress in October 2011 in Tehran.
The theme of the Tehran Congress is "Water Productivity towards Food Security". The themes and sub-topics for various events during the Congress will be:
21st ICID Congress: Water Productivity towards Food Security

Question 57: Water Management in Rainfed Agriculture
Special Session: Modernization of Water Management Schemes

The sub-topics and scope of all above events are given in the Call for Papers which is available on the Congress Website (www.icid2011.org). The time schedule for submission and selection of papers along with guidelines for authors are announced in the Call for Papers booklet.
I believe that the setup of the 21st ICID Congress, as well as, 8th International Micro-Irrigation Congress with the selected topics and their scope, will offer a splendid opportunity to present and discuss new developments and results for sustainability in the field of irrigation and drainage.
