Integrated Watershed Development
 Integrated watershed management is an important activity for development of rural community. It not only helps restore the quality of life of people but also enriches the land, vegetation and helps retain soil moisture in a sustainable manner. Water Resources Management helps creating gainful livelihood opportunities and promotes community development.
The holistic watershed management programme helps in making the watershed dwellers capable of managing the natural resources for optimal benefits. The management of natural resources with understanding of scientific and technical aspects and with an idea of catering to the needs of the community always has positive impact on the socio-economic and environmental conditions of the community.
Soil and Water conservation measures:
An area treatment measure consists of Continuous Contour Trenches (CCTs), Water Absorption trenches (WAT), Afforestation, Agro horticulture, and silvipasture management activities. Treatments like loose boulder structures, Nalla bunds, Gabions and ferro-cement gabions are undertaken on drainage lines of watersheds.
