Land and Water Management.

Special focus is given to provide irrigation assurance to the families so that they can save kharif

crop along with go for second crop.

Water needs to be developed not only for increasing area under irrigation but also

for providing safe and assured drinking water to human being as well as livestock,

other domestic needs, rearing of fish

In the OTELP areas there is ample scope for diverting water from the upper ridges

through a pipe line. This Diversion based irrigation (DBI) has largely been

demonstrated in OTELP areas.

The following important aspects are to be taken in to consideration while developing

the water facilities.

- (i) equity for resource poor families particularly while developing irrigation water

resource

- (ii) type of CBO to be organized for repair and maintenance of above structures

-(iii) willingness of community to give genuine contribution for the proposed

structures

Equity for resource poor families is a crucial concern under this component.

Hence particular taken to see that major benefit due to the new structure goes in favor

of resource poor families. Likewise modality for repair and maintenance as well as

collection of user charges must be sorted out before starting the construction of above

work.

Focused efforts are made to improve sustainability of such interventions which include (i)

physical measures namely, water harvesting structures and gully control
