The tank cum open dug well system is a proven technology for providing reliable irrigation to croplands in the plateau region of eastern India. The system comprises of a series of tanks with open dug wells in the recharge zone of the tank that reharvest back the seepage water. Thus, the rainwater remaining in the tank as well as partial seeped water is used for providing round the year full irrigation. This system was initially evaluated in field in Keonjhar district of Odisha of eastern India with six tanks and five wells in two drainage lines. In the current study the water balance components of the tank cum well system has been evaluated. The water balance analysis showed that there is effective seepage into the tank in the standard week no. 28 to 49. The analysis of piezometric water level data showed higher specific subsurface discharge in the region between the tank and the well indicating that the tank is able to recharge to the downstream well. The pumping test analysis in the open well showed that the yield of the open well varies from 8.74 m3 /day in the month of October to 3.72 m3 /day in the month of April. Not Available |
