Lukhuna gravity fed irrigation demonstration scheme

Lukhuna Small Scale Irrigation Scheme was developed as one of the projects identified during the preparation of Lwakhakha shared sub catchment management plan under the Sio-Malaba-Malakisi River Basin Project. The scheme involved the construction of a simple diversion weir across Lwakhakha River, laying of 12 km of transmission main, distribution system and laterals for supporting irrigation of 100 hectares. This is a community-based scheme which is planned for up scaling.coordinates 0658618 longitude, 0094395 latitude at an altitude of about 1460m above sea level.
