They can also help to reduce water conflicts and improve water governance.<\/p>\n<p>One study found that WUAs in India were able to increase irrigation efficiency by up to 20%. Another study found that WUAs in Mexico were able to reduce water conflicts by up to 50%.<\/p>\n<p>WUAs are a valuable tool for improving irrigation management and increasing agricultural productivity.
