VD.60-Introduction to land-based rainwater harvesting - ( RUVIVAL ).

Water is the limiting factor for food production in arid and semi-arid regions of the world, especially in areas where rain-fed agriculture dominates.

In these areas, land-based rainwater harvesting can be used to enhance crop yields.

These systems can also be used for stormwater management and flood control in areas with a high and unpredictable rainfall rate.

Additionally, they can be applied as an erosion control mechanism.
