Soil Water Conservation
Organization has identified 10 villages from Jalgaon District for undertaking soil water conservation work. The district is known for BANANA production but the situation in these villages is completely adverse. The villages have acute water shortage. People face difficulties in getting water to drink. And hence the organization decided to work in this area. The project duration is three years. In first year, the focus will be on strengthening drinking water resources, rejuvenating the existing structures and preparing plan for complete watershed treatment. During second and third year, complete watershed treatment will be carried out along with the agronomic interventions. Demonstration of various supporting models like Roof Water Harvesting, Recharging of Well and Borewell will also be promoted.
Organization is also working as a “Livelihood Resource Agency” in Integrated Watershed Management program. The Task is to train the watershed community and facilitate their livelihood activities.
