After many years of negotiations, Guanajuato will finally have a program that will make more efficient the use of water in agriculture, increase agricultural productivity, allocate part of the recovered water for human consumption, and guarantee the water supply for Guanajuato families.
These modernization efforts will recover 120 million cubic meters of water for the state of Guanajuato.

The State budget is 6.412 billion pesos over the next five years for the intervention of Irrigation District 011, which includes the Alto Rio Lerma in the State of Guanajuato.
The investment in 2025 will be for 510 million pesos; the bidding process will be held in June, and work will begin in July of this year. The modernization works are expected to be completed by 2030.
These projects are part of the Federal Government’s National Irrigation Technology Plan, which aims to benefit more than 25,258 Guanajuatenses by modernizing 10,207 hectares of Irrigation District 011 in Guanajuato.
It was on March 1st when the Governor of the People, Libia Dennise Garcia Munoz Ledo, and the President of Mexico signed the historic agreement that includes Guanajuato in the Federal Government’s water plan, in compliance with the National Agreement for the Human Right to Water and Sustainability.
