Rainwater Management
Rainwater management is an expertise for
collection and efficient storage of rainwater from different basement areas
like rooftops of residential buildings, ground surface, rock catchments, etc. It
is the collection and storage of rain, rather than allowing it to run off. It is
used to mitigate extreme rainfall events. Using the harvested water, crop
productivity is increased by two-three folds because of assured irrigation in the
kitchen garden. Various vegetables viz. radish, french bean, carrot, coriander, etc. can be grown in the assured
irrigated area during the lean period.
