Rainwater Harvesting & Soil Water Conservation Technique

"Rainwater harvesting is the accumulation and deposition of rainwater for reuse onsite, rather than allowing it to run off. Soil water conservation is one where farmers and ranchers improve soil resources and productivity, protect or improve water quality, and efficiently use water at renewable levels. This paper highlights the successful interventions of improved indigenous rainwater harvesting/soil water conservation technologies such as tassa, stone rows and half-moon, and their contributions to enhancing food security and alleviating poverty."
