Now and in the future, many countries expect to face inadequate water resources to fulfil their recent environmental, industrial, domestic and agricultural water needs. The world population is expected to grow about 30% at the year 2025, getting 8 billion persons. The living standards are also anticipated to increase as a result of improving urbanization, communications and globalization. So, competition on water among the domestic, industrial, agricultural and other users will rise in unprecedented levels.The researcher studied feasibility study and records that were generated during the life of the Hilla – Kifl irrigation project so as to get some perception into the planning and implementation processes. The researcher made field visits concentrating on direct observation of unending and completed project activities. During the field visits, group discussions and interviews with project staff, farmers and resident engineer were held.The objective of this research is to define the extent to which the feasibility study aims and objectives of Hilla – Kifl irrigation project were met. It was also significant to find best lessons and practices learned so as to improve the design, planning and implementation of future irrigation projects.
