Conservation of Ground Water

The Central Government has implemented Farmers Participatory Action Research Programme (FPARP) throughout the Country with the help of Agricultural Universities, ICAR Research Institutes, International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and Water and Land Management Institutes (WALMIs) to demonstrate increase in yield and income per drop of water through generating synergy among water, variety, agronomic practices. Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) under the Ministry of Water Resources has also implemented experimental / demonstrative projects on rainwater harvesting and artificial recharge in the Country, which have yielded encouraging results.
