For Sri Lanka it was estimated as being equal to the irrigation potential, since it is larger than cultivated area TABLE 2 Regional distribution of area and population (2009) Population km 2 the region Total population (s) the region % living in rural areas Population density (inhab./km 2 ) Economically % economically active population active population in as agriculture East Asia South Asia Mainland Southeast Asia Maritime Southeast Asia Total region TABLE 3 Regional distribution of the water resources Annual precipitation Annual internal renewable water resources Height Volume Volume the region Per inhabitant (2009) (mm) ( ) ( ) (%) ( ) East Asia South Asia Mainland Southeast Asia Maritime Southeast Asia Total region

It is not clear whether the previously reported figure is wrong or whether a large area has been transformed from spate irrigation to full control irrigation. ** Annual increase was calculated using a weighted year index.the weighted year index is calculated by allocating to the year for each country a weighting coefficient proportional to its area equipped for irrigation, therefore giving more importance to countries with the largest areas under irrigation.
