Description Farmers in different villages confirmed that water level in open wells increased
on an average in the range of 3 to 10 feet during the SW monsoon rainy season
and water availability is extended by about two months in the dry season during
summer. Farmers mentioned that period of water availability in wells for
irrigation extended from January/February before the DPAP initiative to end of
March/April after the watershed development. This situation favored a change
to double cropping with three to five supplemental irrigations for second crop
during post rainy season. All this impact was felt by the beneficiaries because of
good quality soil and water conservation structures at right location developed
through this project. Commendable efforts by the project managers, staff, as well
as WC were responsible for these positive impacts in these watersheds.....
