The State and Peasants in Modern Egypt's Hydraulic Systems Until the Aswan dam's reservoir was put in use 25 years ago, the Egyptian "agricultures" were so numerous as the ways to use the Nile's waters : methods, practised for 5000 years, using floodwaters ; methods for drawing water from lowlands and along the river banks ; methods using dams during the 19th century to intensively farm irrigated land. Attention has been focused too narrowly on bid hydraulic projects designed and managed by the State rather than on the irrigation techniques and social organization at the village- and field-levels.
