Headline UNKRA's Irrigation Program in Korea 
Caption Description Specialists of the United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency who came to Korea after the war were faced with many problems. Among them was that of restoring the destroyed irrigation systems and devising new and speedy methods of land reclamation. After a comprehensive survey by a combine Food and Agriculture and UNKRA team in 1952, UNKRA allocated 1.5 million dollars to buy materials to start an irrigation program. In the following year some $780,000 were allocated for building dams and weirs and pumping stations as well as $700,000 for flood control. To date, some 12 to 15 weirs have been built and materials provided for the building of some 36 pumping stations. About one hundred UNKRA irrigation projects have already been completed, representing 60,000 more acres of available rice-yielding land.
The building of this type of simple weir, sponsored by UNKRA, has done much to solve irrigation problems in Korea. [No exact date]
