WATERSHED MANAGEMENT
The watershed management implies
the judicious use of all the resources
i.e. land, water, vegetation in an area
for providing an answer to alleviate
drought,
moderate floods,
prevent soil erosion,
improve water availability
and increase food, fodder, fuel and fiber on sustained basis.
Watershed to achieve maximum production with minimum hazard to the
natural resources and for the well being of people.
The management should be carried out on the watershed basis.
The task of watershed management includes the treatment of land by using
most suitable biological and engineering measures in such a manner that, the
management work must be economic and socially acceptable

Drainage density is a measure of the length of stream channel per unit area
of drainage basin. Mathematically it is expressed as:
Drainage Density (Dd) = Stream Length / Basin Area
The measurement of drainage density provides a hydrologist or
geomorphologist with a useful numerical measure of landscape dissection
and runoff potential. On a highly permeable landscape, with small
potential for runoff, drainage densities are sometimes less than 1 kilometer
per square kilometer. On highly dissected surfaces densities of over 500
kilometers per square kilometer are often reported. Closer investigations of
the processes responsible for drainage density variation have discovered
that a number of factors collectively influence stream density. These factors
include climate, topography, soil infiltration capacity, vegetation, and
geology.

Strategy of implementation:
Developing waste lands / degraded lands on watershed basis.
Overall economic development of resource poor.
For Mitigation of drought, Employment generation and Poverty
alleviation Scheme is being implemented by User groups, Self-help
groups, through watershed committees under supervision of PIAs.
Sharing Pattern (CSS): 50:50 up to IV th batch, 75:25 from Vth batch
onwards.
Productivity Enhancement:
Adaptive trials and infrastructure Revolving fund
Entreprise promotion :
