Description Numerous watershed management projects have been undertaken in the recent
past by various developmental agencies in different agro-climatic regions having
diverse physiographic, climatic and socio-economic conditions. However, the
impacts of various watershed interventions have not been objectively evaluated
for comparison across the watersheds, states and regions due to lack of availability
of appropriate indicators. In this paper, the authors have evolved a large number of
useful indicators which have the potential to systematically and scientifically
assess the impact of various intervention on bio-physical, socio-economic and
sustainability attributes in the watershed management projects being executed
across different regions of the country. The main objective of this paper is to
sensitize the implementing agencies about the importance of collecting the
relevant data during planning, implementation and maintenance phases of the
watershed development projects to arrive at useful and logical conclusions and
justify public investments. The use of appropriate indicators would also help in
critically analysing the relative performance of watershed projects in terms of
quantifiable benefits under identical agro-climatic settings as well as across
different regions of the country. The results of some of the indicators, tested and
evaluated under field conditions have also been presented.
