BEST PRACTICES
1.
Under Ground Pipe Line
ISI Marked HDPE/PVC Pipes are laid at one meter depth.
Subsidy @ 50% or maximum Rs. 60,000 per beneficiary.
42
IMPACT OF UGPL
• Saves about 15% to 20% water and improves
crop productivity.
• Saves energy, reduces operational cost.
• Water carried directly to fields.
• Upto 2% additional area under open field
channels brought under cultivation.
• Prevents seepage and evaporation losses.
43
2.
LASER LAND LEVELER
(Introduced in 2007-08)
Water Saving 15-20%.
Leads to uniform irrigation.
Reduces consumption of fertilizer
and pesticides 18-20%.
Saving in Electricity and Diesel.
Desired slope can be maintained to
drain out the excess water in heavy
rainfall areas.
Increase in irrigated area/command
area.
