Hydro-agricultural management, being a tool for controlling water, is also a means implemented to carry out the irrigation operation. The general objective of this study, initiated on the rice-growing area of Towéta 1, is to carry out a feasibility study of the hydro-agricultural management of a perimeter by a semi-Californian system with a view to increasing the agricultural yield of producers. To attain our goals, we used data collection techniques such as documentary research, semi-structured interviews and direct observation. At the end of the research, it appears that the management of the site by the Californian system will allow producers to, not only increase rice yields but also produce off-season market garden crops. With a surface area of 15 ha, the technical study revealed a silty-clay soil with a longitudinal slope of 1.6% and an average transverse slope of 0.8%. Regarding the development, it was proposed a development scheme with total control of water on the area with an equipment flow of 4.17l/s/ha and a water hand taken equal to 8l/s.
