Abstract/Description: | Vertisols and associated soils constitute 22.12% (72 million hectares) of total geographical area of the country. There is enough potential to conserve runoff along with the sediment and periodically recycle the stored water to the fields to overcome the moisture stress in crop growth in semi-arid black soils region. At present, contour bunding, graded bunding etc. are being adopted for soil and water conservation. But contour bunds cause yield reduction in black soils to the tune of 25 to 30% due to water stagnation in about 16% of inter-bund area. On the other hand, graded bunds (without properly designed farm pond) drain out the excess rainwater without being recycled for crop production. |
