What is Traditional Water Harvesting Methods about?
Traditional methods of water harvesting in India have been used for over 4,000 years and involve simple, low-cost structures to collect and store rainwater. Examples include ghadsisar lakes, johads/khadins (small earthen check dams), and interconnected tanks and ponds. These systems effectively harvest rainwater, recharge groundwater supplies, and have been revived in recent decades by organizations like Tarun Bhagat Sangh to provide water security to rural communities.
