Global Map of Irrigation Areas

Brunei Darussalam

The irrigated area in Brunei Darussalam is reported to be about 1 000 ha [BN01]. The figures refer to 1995. No subnational statistics were available.

No map of irrigated areas was available. Therefore, arable land, mainly located in the north of the country, was digitized from satellite imagery [BN02].
