International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges & Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad T1-01O-1003 Low-Cost Tube-well Recharge Technology for Enhancing Water Availability Navab Singh, P. P. Rohilla, S. K. Singh, and Dilip Matwa ICAR-Agricultural Technology Application Research Institute, Zone-II CAZRI Campus, Jodhpur-342 005. Rajasthan. INDIA. In India, climate vulnerabilities addressed are drought, flood, cyclone, heat waves, cold waves, etc. which are likely to threaten the food security and livelihood of millions of people in urban, peri-urban, and rural areas as well. Groundwater is clearly the preferred source for farmers. This is one of the reasons why India has experienced explosive growth in groundwater demand during recent decades (Pendke et al. 2017). The NICRA villages have become hubs of learning on climate-resilient agriculture in a short span, opening up opportunities for horizontal and vertical diffusion of successful interventions in other parts of the districts. Due to changes in climatic conditions and rainfall, the climate changed in Rajasthan, since the last ten years rainfall pattern has changed, the dry spell is more, and also an uneven distribution of rains. It is therefore important to enhance the residence of the Indian agriculture production system to climate variability and change. In this regard, Krishi Vigyan Kendra Bharatpur under NICRA Project developed low-cost tube-well recharge technology to improve the groundwater quality and availability as well. Methodology Water stress is being felt in different parts of the country owing to the increasing demand resulting from the population explosion (CGWB 2007). Most of the farmers were unaware of in-situ soil and water conservation techniques. A few farmers were recharging their tube wells by using indigenous methods, viz., by the opening valve of the Kachcha tube well in the rainy season to restore run-off water. But due to filtration problems silt is deposited in the pit and needs frequent cleaning, which is a tiresome process and huge water losses. Based on the above findings and the usefulness of recharging tube-well; KVK Bharatpur has developed indigenous wisdom of farmers with scientific input to design a low-cost recharging structure of tube-well (`10000/-only) using locally available cement pipes (perforated), brick wall in tube-well and prepared a pit also for water filtration separately outside the tube-well. Results More than 125 tube-well recharging structures have been completed successfully in Sitara village of Bharatpur district and farmers of Sahenti and Mukundpura nearby villages have also adopted this low-cost technology. Major crops in the rabi season minimized 90% of the yield losses due to recharged groundwater (8-10ft); due to which farmers cultivated wheat, barley, 6 | Page Resilience through land and water management interventions, water management and governance
