1. ITC

2. IMPORTANT POINTERS
 Stress on Moisture-stressed semi-arid regions
 Areas with erratic rainfall patterns resulting to large
scale crop failures
 Main focus on helping marginal farmers

3. ITC’S WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT
Two vital objectives: Water Conservation & Soil
Enrichment, enabling farmers to extend the cultivation
cycle and return to multiple cropping

4. COMMUNITY-BASED MANAGEMENT OF
WATER RESOURCES
Micro plans to conserve topsoil, minimize water run-
off, restore defunct water harvesting structures and
construct new ones.

5. CREATING EFFICIENT WATER
MANAGEMENT REGIMES
Focus on much neglected aspect of end usage of
harvested water

6. FIGHTING DROUGHT &
UNEMPLOYMENT
Growth in farm productivity, coupled with construction
work on harvesting structures and reduce seasonal
out-migration
