Water Resource Management

Water Resource Management

Water is life — yet many villages face acute shortages due to mismanagement, overuse, and erratic rainfall. Damooga Foundation’s Water Resource Management program restores the balance by reviving traditional water bodies, promoting conservation, and improving irrigation practices.

Activities include pond deepening, check dam construction, percolation pits, and desilting of canals. Community awareness drives teach households to adopt rainwater harvesting and greywater reuse.

In agriculture, farmers are trained in drip irrigation, mulching, and crop diversification to reduce water demand. Satellite mapping and village water budgeting ensure evidence-based planning.

This holistic model quenches not just the land, but the future of rural India.
