    The major objective of PMKSY is to achieve convergence of investments in

    irrigation at the field level, Expand cultivable area under assured irrigation, improve

    on-farm water use efficiency to reduce wastage of water, enhance the adoption of

    precision-irrigation and other water saving technologies (More crop per drop),

    enhance recharge of aquifers and introduce sustainable water conservation practices

    by exploring the feasibility of reusing treated municipal waste water for peri-urban

    agriculture and attract greater private investment in precision irrigation system.

    PMKSY has been conceived amalgamating ongoing schemes viz. Accelerated

    Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP) of the Ministry of Water Resources, River

    Development & Tapti Rejuvenation (MoWR, RD&GR), Integrated Watershed

    Management Programme (IWMP) of Department of Land Resources (DoLR) and

    the On Farm Water Management

    (OFWM) of Department of Agriculture and Cooperation (DAC).

    Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of water Resources and Rural

    Development will implement the scheme. In addition, the Ministry of Rural

    Development is to mainly undertake rainwater conservation, construction of farm

    pond, water harvesting structures, small check dams and contour bonding etc. and

    MoWR, RD &GR, is to undertake various measures for creation of assured

    irrigation source, construction of diversion canals, field channels, water

    diversion/lift irrigation, including development of water distribution systems.

    Ministry of Agriculture will promote efficient water conveyance and precision water

    application devices like drips, sprinklers, pivots, rain-guns in the farm “(Jal

    Sinchan)”, construction of micro-irrigation structures to supplement source creation

    activities, extension activities for promotion of scientific moisture conservation and

    agronomic measures Programme architecture of PMKSY will be to adopt a

    ‘decentralized State level planning and projected execution’ structure that will allow

    States to draw up their own irrigation development plans based on District Irrigation

    Plan (DIP) and State Irrigation Plan (SIP). It will be operative as convergence

    platform for all water sector activities including drinking water & sanitation,

    MGNREGS, application of science etc. through comprehensive plan. State Level

    Sanctioning Committee (SLSC) chaired by the Chief Secretary of the State will

    vested with the authority to oversee its implementation and sanction projects. The

    programme will supervised and monitored by an Inter-Ministerial National Steering

    Committee (NSC) constituted under the Chairmanship of Prime Minister with

    Union Ministers from concerned Ministries. A National Executive Committee

    (NEC) will constituted under the Chairmanship of Vice Chairman, NITI Aayog to

    oversee programme implementation, allocation of resources, inter-ministerial

    coordination, monitoring & performance assessment, addressing administrative

    issues etc.

    Improved/innovative distribution system like pipe and box outlet system with

    controlled outlet and other activities of enhancing water use efficiency.

    District Irrigation Plans (DIPs)

    District Irrigation Plans (DIPs) shall be the cornerstone for planning and

    implementation of PMKSY. DIPs will identify the gaps in irrigation infrastructure

    after taking consideration of the District Agriculture Plans (DAPs) which already

    prepared for Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY). The Irrigation infrastructures

    which are currently available and resources that will be added during XII Plan from

    other ongoing schemes (both State and Central).like Mahatma Gandhi National

    Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), Rashtriya Krishi Vikash

    Yojana (RKVY), Rural Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF), Member of

    Parliament Local Area Development (MPLAD) Scheme, Member of Legislative

    Assembly Local Area Development (MLALAD) Scheme, Local body funds etc.

    will also considered.

    The gaps identified under Strategic Research & Extension Plan (SREGP) will used

    in the preparation of DIP.

    DIPs will present holistic irrigation development perspective of the district

    outlining medium to long term development plans integrating three components viz.

    water sources, distribution network and water use applications incorporating all

    usage of water like drinking & domestic use, irrigation and industry.Preparation of

    DIP willtake up as joint exercise of all participating departments. DIP will form the

    compendium of all existing and proposed water resources network system in the

    district.

    The DIPs will prepared at the block and the district levels. Keeping in the view

    of the convenience of map preparation and data collection, the work will primarily

    done at block level. Block wise irrigation plan is to be prepared depending on the

    available and potential water resources and water requirement for agriculture sector

    prioritising the activities based on socio-economic and location specific

    requirement. In case of planning is made based on basin/sub basin level, the

    comprehensive irrigation plan may cover more than one district.The activities

    identified in the basin/sub-basin plan can further segregated into district/block level

    action plans. Use of satellite imagery, Topo sheets and available database may

    appropriately utilised for developing irrigation plans at least on pilot basis to begin

    with and subsequently may extended to all projects.

    Background,

    Hon’ble President of India in his address to the joint Session of the Parliament of

    16th Lok Sabha indicated, “Each drop of water is precious. Government is

    committed to giving high priority to water security. It will complete the long

  • 10

    pending irrigation projects on priority and launch the ‘Pradhan

    MantriKrishiSinchayeeYojana’ with the motto of ‘HarKhetKoPaani’. There is a

    need of serious consideration to all options including linking of rivers, where

    feasible for ensuring optimal use of our water resources to prevent the recurrence of

    floods and drought. By harnessing rainwater through Jal Sanchay and Jal Sinchanwe

    can nurture water conservation and ground water recharge. Micro irrigation will

    ensure ‘Per drop-More crop’. Nearly 141m.Ha of net area shown in the country,

    about 65 million hectare (45%) are presently covered under irrigation. Substantial

    dependency on rainfall makes cultivation in unirrigated areas a high risk, less

    productive profession. Empirical evidences suggest to assured farmers to invest

    more in farming technology and inputs leading to productivity enhancement and

    increased farm income. The overreaching vision of Pradhan

    MantriKrishiSinchayeeYojana (PMKSY) is to ensure access to some means of

    protective irrigation to all agricultural farms in the country, to produce ‘per drop

    more crop’, thus bringing much desired rural prosperity.

    Vision,

    To use the available water resources in the district at the maximum potential in

    an efficient way catering to the basic needs of every living being and enhancing the

    livelihoods of rural population to the maximum extent thus alleviating poverty in a

    sustainable way without compromising the interests of future generations.

    Objective,

    The broad objectives of PMKSY is to - a) Achieve convergence of investments in irrigation at the field level (preparation of district level

    and, if required, sub district level water use plans).

    b) Enhance the physical access of water on the farm and expand cultivable area underassured

    irrigation (HarKhetkopani),

    c) Integration of water source, distribution and its efficient use, to make best use of water through

    appropriate technologies and practices.

    d) Improve on-farm water use efficiency to reduce wastage and increase availability both in

    duration and in extent,

    e) Enhance the adoption of precision-irrigation and other water saving technologies (More crop

    per drop).

    f) Enhance recharge of aquifers and introduce sustainable water conservation practices

    g) Ensure the integrated development of rain fed areas using the watershed approach towards soil

    and water conservation, regeneration of ground water, arresting runoff, providing livelihood

    options and other NRM activities.

    h) Promote extension activities relating to water harvesting, water management and crop

    alignment for farmers and grass root level field functionaries.

    i) To explore the feasibility of reusing treated municipal wastewater for peri-urban agriculture,

    j) Attract greater private investments in irrigation. This will increase agricultural production and

    productivity and enhance farm income.

    Strategy /approach

    To achieve above objectives, PMKSY will strategize by focussing on end-to end

    solution in irrigation supply chain, viz. water sources, distribution network, efficient

    farm level applications, extension services on new technologies & information.

    Broadly, PMKSY will focus on)

  • 11

    Creation of new water sources, repair, restoration and renovation of defunct water

    sources, construction of water harvesting structures, secondary & micro storage,

    groundwater development, enhancing potentials of traditional water bodies at

    village level like Jal Mandir (Gujarat), Khatri, Kuhl (H.P.), Zabo (Nagaland); Eri,

    Ooranis (T.N.),Dongs (Assam), Katas, Bandhas (Odisha and M.P.) etc.

    b) Developing/augmenting distribution network where irrigation sources (both

    assured and protective) are available or created.

    c) Promotion of scientific moisture conservation and run off control measures to

    improve ground water recharge to create opportunities for farmer to access

    recharged water through shallow tube/dug wells.

    d) Promoting efficient water conveyance and field application devices within the

    farm, underground piping system, Drip & Sprinklers, pivots, rain-guns and other

    application devices etc.

    e) Encouraging community irrigation through registered user groups/farmer

    producers’ organisations/NGOs.

    f) Farmer oriented activities like capacity building, training and exposure visits,

    demonstrations, farm schools, skill development in efficient water and crop

    management practices (crop alignment) including large-scale awareness on more

    crop per drop of water through mass media campaign, exhibitions, field days, and

    extension activities through short animation films etc.

    g) The previously mentioned areas only outline the broad contours of PMKSY;

    combination of interventions may be required depending on location specific

    conditions and requirements, which will identified through District and State

    Irrigation Plans.

    Methodology:

    The preparation of District Irrigation plan is an integration of geospatial technology,

    Space application technologies and spatial and non-spatial data.

    1. Transformation of available thematic information (district provided Gyan data) on

    to the village level on Bhuvan portal and extract geo-referenced village map data.

    2. Integration of thematic layers with socio-economic data for classification of area

    into specific composite land units on village level.

    3. Preparation of appropriate action plan based on potential of composite land units

    and developmental needs of study area in based on available data.

    4. Field visit to validate the recommended measures with respect to the ground

    situation and requirement of the local people.

    5. Finalization of development plans based on field observation Available thematic

    information for preparation for water resource and land resources and development

    plan.

    Area for development of water resources structure geospatial technology has been

    used in this process first identify the area of crop land based on high resolution

    satellite data and then identify the irrigated area by different source of irrigation

    methods. To identify the unirrigated area an overlay method is used. District

    irrigation plan covers the following planning component of the district in sustainable

    development approach:

    Increase in vegetation/biomass in the district.

    More number of surface water bodies in district.

    Shift from annual crop to perennial.

    Increase in the extent of crop area.

    Improvement in the soil moisture availability

    Reclamation of wastelands.

    Chapter- 1 General Information of the

    Burhanpur District

    District Burhanpur is located in south-west of Madhya Pradesh state in Central

    India. It is a historical town on the north bank of the Tapti River, barely 20 km from

    the Maharashtra border. Mostly it is visited by those tourists who are traveling from

    Ajanta-Ellora to Indore/Mandu/Maheshwar or vice-versa. Earlier is was in Khandwa

    district of state but later in 15th August 2003, Burhanpur detached off to the

    Khandwa district and became independent district in itself. This region also known

    as eastern Nimad. The town established in Mughal era, around 1400 AD by king

    Nasir Khan Farukhi, also known as Gateway of South (Dakkan ka Darwaza). In

    Mughal period it was to be the capital for a short span of time. Current tourist

    attractions are the monuments & buildings bearing Islamic architecture and their

    engineering skills during rule of Farukhi sultans and Mughals.

    Even ‘Skannd Puran’ of Hindu religion, articulate some of incidents took place here

    in ultra-ancient history of india, but then Burhanpur was known as “Brahattpur”.

    Some Jain epics too mentioned burhanpur in brief way. The ornamentation &

    Development of Burhanpur executed by Farukhi dynasty, those were seemed too

    much keen to build places surround like – seven stories royal palace, Daulatkhana,

    Farukhi mausoleums, Bibi ki maszid, Jainabad & Aadilpura ki sarae. The great

    jama-maszij (mosque) is situated at the centre of the city; the most admiring thing

    about this place is to the fulfilled presence of Indian medieval history, the place is

    stashed with many mausoleums, mosques and Mughal’s ruin. The city has its

    municipal corporation & district headquarter.

    HISTORY

    In Archaic time from the reference of ‘Skannd Puran’ of Hindu religion, this place

    was known as ‘Brahattpur’, but in modern medieval History, when Mughals were

    ruling over country, this place derives the name Burhanpur from a Sufi saint ‘Shaikh

    Burhanuddin Garib’ from Daulatabad. Mughals Ruled Burhanpur after Farukhi

    Dynasty, Abulfazal wrote that after the win over Gujrat and Malwa, Humayun

    rested here for over seven days. Akbar sent Faizy as an ambassador to Raj-e-Ali-

    kha-Farukhi who was ruling Burhanpur in Hijri 999, who also known as Adil-shah-

    farukhi in the History. There is a hand written note book by faizy kept in Hyderabad

    land record office, which elaborates Burhanpur’s geological position, cultural

    description, handicraft art, industry and detailed information about sociology of the

    city. Faizy was consider to be very close and faithful for Akbar, it is said that once

    Faizy recommended, renowned Hakeem Misri to Akbar for placing him as a royal

    hakim in Darbar, and Akbar did so. Akbar won Asirgarh fort after so many

    circumstances and end the farukhi dynasty completely, there he released a new

  • 14

    golden currency of Asirgarh, in coins form to make that win memorable, in which

    he carved an eagle, which were the sign of Akbar Empire, there are many

    inscriptions which were carved by Akbar, can be seen in Asirgarh & Burhanpur’s

    Jama mosque.

    Location Map of District – Burhanpur

  • 15

    Burhanpur were known to be ‘the door of deccan’ at the time of Mughal period, it

    was to be the most sensitive place, as far as the concern of security & commanding

    over southern region of India. Considering its importance, only skilled rulers was

    being deployed here, who either happens to be the son of king of the Delhi or the

    close relatives. Mughal emperors like Shahjahan & Aurangzeb ruled this place.

    Jahangir's (son of Akbar) son Khurram got the title of Shahjahan after his win in

    Burhanpur. In June 1931, Mumtajmahal died here, and then her corpse brought in

    Jainabad’s Aahukhana Baag for some time. At this same place Aurangzeb with her

    beloved Heerabai (Jainabadi begum) fell in love, later their story became famous.

    The 125 years of Mughal ruling time, transformed the art & culture of this place.

    The water distribution system then, was well equipped and is a great example of

    engineering of that time, most of part of the town still getting water supply from that

    old system. This water distribution system was executed in the year 1615 AD, in the

    supervision of Abdul Raheem Khankhana. Khankhana’s darbari historian, Abdul

    baki wrote in “mayansire reheemi” that some expert geologists found water

    resources in Satpura’s region, then water was being carried out to some secret

    undermines for distributing it in town. These mines are about 80 to 100 feet deep

    and there are well designed ventilation system for air, light & cleanness of the way.

    After seeing all these arrangements of water supply, it also reminds that how

    conscious mughals were in order to save the water on that time.

    Burhanpur was not only known as to be the door of deccan, but it was the prominent

    place of mughals for the defense & Army concern as well as it had a great

    significance in order to trade and industry, this place was a broad manufacturer of

    cotton & silk, embroidery in clothes along with printings over them made this place

    a big trade hub, there were a paper factory, cannon factories, and coins molding

    factories. In the time of Aurangjeb a ‘hebtulmulk’ cannon was built here in the

    supervision of Mohammad Hussein, today which is kept in security in Nagpur. Here

    also were glass industry and earthen vessels were famous for its art and craft.

    During the period of Jahangir, a foreign tourist visited this place named Tomas row,

    he inspired with the art, culture & financial prosperity of this place. In 1720 AD,

    Nijamulmulk Asaf kha, formed his separate reign and included Burhanpur in his

    state. Nijam hand it over to Bazirao Peshwa at 1760 AD. In 1770 AD, Bazirao

    Peshwa gave it to Madho ji Sindhiya, and then British ruled this place from 1803 to

    1947 AD. After independence, Burhanpur is in Madhya Pradesh state at Central

    India.

    TOURIST ATTRACTIONS

    Their are number of places to visit in Burhanpur town. Most of them are historical

    monuments, mausoleums and buildings built during Farukhi dynasty and Mughal

    dynasty. They depicts Muslim architecture in design and pattern. Some of the must

    see attractions are as given below:

    Asirgarh: It is a historical & strategically important fort about 14 miles far from

    Burhanpur, there is a historic, invincible fort at the top of a mound of satpura hills.

    This fort was considered very important in order to regulate southern part of India,

    as some historian addressed it with the name “the key of deccan” some author said

    that after conquering this fort, ways to seizing southern area or ‘Khandesh’ become

    more easier. It is about 259.1 meter high from its base and 701 meter high from sea

    level. There is a mosque, lord Shiva temple and one palace inside this fort to see. It

    is actually developed in 3 parts and each part have its own name. First part is called

    "Asirgarh", second part is "Kamargarh" and thrid part is called "Malaygarh".

    Faurkhi Mausoleum: At the north of the town, where the king of the Farukhi

    dynasty buried down, a courtyard surrounded with couple of buildings called

    “Hazeerat-e-Farukhiya”. In that building there is two high spires, one mosque, and

    the spires of the building made by stone which is a great example of Mughal

    architecture and handicraft.

    Shahanwaz Khan's Mausoleum: Close to the town at the bank of Utawli River,

    there is a fascinating mausoleum made by complete black stones, the inner side of

    this building along with spire colored beautifully.

    Begum Shahsuza's Mausoleum: In this mausoleum, Shahjahan’s Daughter-in-law,

    means, wife of Shahsuza buried down. The shape of its spire is like watermelon, the

    interior designs of this mausoleum are matching with Agra fort.

    Akbari Sarai: Abdul-raheem-khan-khana built it in the period of Jahangir, in this

    same sarai the ambassador of British’s first king, sir Tomas Row stayed here at that

    time, an inscription at this sarai describes it all. There is a bath place of Abdul-

    raheem-khan-khana at the west side of this sarai.

    Black Mosque: It considers being the oldest mosque of this town, Naseer Kha, The

    first emperor of Farukhi Dynasty built it using black stone.

    Gurudwara: Burhanpur gurudwara is counted among important pilgrimage place

    for followers for Sikh religion followers. Founder of Sikh religion, Guru Nanakdev

    ji and their last guru (teacher)Guru Govind Singh Ji have visited this gurudwara.

    Most of the gurudwara are located on bank of Tapti river. Here you can see the Guru

    Granth Sahib (religious book) & weapons of Guru Govind Singh Ji. This Guruswara

    is about 400 years old.

    Biwi's Mosque: This mosque was built by the order of Begum Rukayya, at the time

    of king of the Farukhi dynasty, Aajam Humayun. Biwi Rukayya was a daughter of

    the emperor of Gujrat, Mujjaffar shah. The construction year has given is 1453 AD.

    Aahukhana: This park is in front of Royal fort, at the next side of Tapti River. This

    was to be the Hunting area of Shahjahan Daniyal. Its courtyard is consists with one

    tank, a palace, which were built by Shahjahan. There is a big water container at the

    east side out to this courtyard. This park was planted in Iranian style, also known as

    Alam-aara, and Baag-e-Jainabad. Shahjahan’s beloved wife Mumtaj-mahal, buried

    down here for six months after her death. Once prince Aurangjeb was stayed here to

    his aunt, while heading south for a battle, during his stay he fell in love with

    Heerabai (Jainabadi begum) in this park (bag).

    Karara or Gulara Palace Seven miles far from the town, Gulara Palace is famous

    for its natural beauty. Here is a water fall which makes this place beautiful at moon

    light; pond has two palaces both side. There is also a mausoleum of Hazrat

    Nizamuddin at a high place of Utaavli River, who was a religious mentor of Adil-

    khan.

    Water supply system: Mughal engineers gifted exemplary water supply system to

    Burhanpur town which is still actively used in town. They made 8 water-supply

    system which provides sufficient water inflow for town in past. They are counted

    among some highly appreciated engineering works done during Mughal dynasty in

    India. Most of the work done during rule of Mughal emperors Shahjahan &

    Aurangzeb. Their are number of underground water flow channels in Satpura hills

    that avails water to Tapti river. Mughal engineers controlled those water channels at

    3 points to develop water-reservoirs which are known by the names "Mool

    Bhandara", "Sukha Bhandara" and "Chintaharan Bhandara". They are located in

    north of Burhanpur town and are at a height of approx. 100 feet from town land.

    Taking advantage of this height engineers made small canal towards town. After

    independence, this water supply system is still active and used with some changes

    by government engineers. Canals were replaced by pipelines. There are many other

    places to see around Burhanpur except to above mentioned places like – Raja

    Jaisingh ki Chattri, Palace of RaoRatan, Jain temples of Sonbardi, Shri Shantinath

    Swetambari Jain Temple, Jama Mosque Royal Palace, Delhi Darwaza, statues of

    Shantinath, Parshwanath, God Shankheshwar.

    1.3 Biomass and livestock

    Water plays an important role in livestock productivity. Livestock productivity in

    pastoral areas depends greatly on the availability of water. There are several

    factors,hich determine water balance, water turnover and functions of the animal.

    Assessment of livestock and water requirement is helpful in modeling water and

    livestock relationships. Type and size of animal or bird

    • Physiological state (lactating, pregnant or growing)

    • Activity level

    • Type of diet-dry hay, silage or lush pasture

    • Temperature-hot summer days above 25 0C can sometimes double the water

    consumption of animals.

    • Water quality - palatability and salt content

    In the below table the demand of water for Large Animals is shown and all the

    figures are taken from the Livestock Census of India.

    1.4 Agro-Ecology, Climate, Hydrology and Topography:

    Agro-ecology is the study of ecological processes that operate in agricultural

    production systems. The prefix agro- refers to agriculture. Bringing ecological

    principles to bear in agroecosystems can suggest novel management approaches that

    will not considered. Agroecology is the application of ecological concepts and

    methodological design for longterm enhancement and management of soil fertility

    and agriculture productivity. It provides a strategy to increase diversified agro-

    ecosystem. Therefore, it is benefiting the effect of the incorporation of plant and

    animal biodiversity, nutrient recycling; biomass creation and growth with natural

    resource systems based on legumes, trees, and incorporation of livestock.

    These all make the basis of a sustainable agriculture and aim to improve the food

    system and

    societal sustainability. The agro ecology supports production of both a huge quantity

    and diversity of good quality of food, thread and medicinal crops, together with

    family utilization and the market for economic and nutritionally at risk populations.

    Sustainable agricultural practices have to tackle the conservation of biodiversity,

    enhanced ecological functions, social tolerance, self-reliance, fairness, improved

    quality of life and economic productivity of crops and live- stock. Sustainability of

    agriculture critical from the food point of view and ecological security at the

    regional scale.

    Slope of land is also one of the important physiographic aspects influencing the

    landuse of an area. The effect of slope on agriculture may be both direct and

    indirect. The most obvious direct influence of slope is in the form of the restrained

    on cultivation and accessibility. The indirect effect of slope manifests itself in

    pedological and climatic modification including the position of water table,

    development of soils, air drainage, and relative freedom from frost. This

    1.6 Geomorphology-

    Geomorphology is one of the critical theme information for all the application

    projects. Hence, the geomorphic maps proposed to be prepared would cater to the

    different resource information needs of the country like geo-environment, geo-

    engineering, geohazards, 36 mineral and ground water exploration and also

    interdisciplinary themes like soil, land use /land cover and forest, etc.

    Geomorphology plays an important role in various fields of planning. One of the

    major themes is the irrigation development wherein the geomorphological guides

    are used as one of the indicator zone for site selection. The understanding of

    subsurface geology is a primary requirement for planning exploration and

    exploitation strategies.

    Landforms of fluvial origin

    The word fluvial is used in earth science to refer to processes and landforms

    produced by running water. As with other surficial processes, running water can

    either erode material from the earth’s landscape, or deposit layers of sediment. The

    resulting landforms can be further classified as either erosional landforms or

    depositional landforms. The incredible power of running water in carving various

    erosional and depositional landforms is well known. Although the quantity of water

    in stream is small at one time during the course of the year, very large volumes of

    water moves through the channel and they form an important component in the

    hydrological cycle. The fluvial dissection of the landscape consists of valleys and

    their included channel ways organized into a system of connection known as a

    drainage network. Drainage networks display many types of quantitative regularity

    that are useful in analyzing both the fluvial systems and the terrains that they

    dissect. The following are some of the important landforms definition of fluvial

    origin.

    1.8 Soil

    Soil is the mixture of minerals, organic matter, gases, liquids, and the

    countless organisms that together support life on Earth. Soil is a major part of the

    natural environment, alongside air and water, and is vital to the existence of life on

    the planet. Soil is the result of the process of the gradual breakdown of rock - the

    solid geology that makes up the earth. As rock becomes broken down through a

    variety of processes, such as weathering and erosion, the particles become ground

    smaller and smaller. As a whole, soil is made of four constituents: mineral material,

    organic material, air and water. There are three main mineral parts to soil, ‘sand silt’

    and ‘clay’. These parts give the soil its 'mineral texture'. In addition, as leaves and

    other organic material fall to the ground and decompose - there also forms an

    ‘organic’ layer. Soil scientists (or pedologists) use a series of sieves to separate out

    the constituent parts in order to characterise soil by texture class. Many natural

    bodies, such as plants and animals, are discrete entities, which can be classified, and

    guidelines for their identification followed. Soils are much more difficult to identify

    and classify than these discrete bodies for two main reasons: (i) soil is more or less a

    continuum covering the land surface of the earth, not a set of discrete entities; and

    (ii) most of the soil is below ground and therefore not readily visible. Soils grade

    into one another across the landscape usually without sharp boundaries between one

    type of soil and another. Soil surveyors who make maps of soils have to use their

    skills in reading changes in the landscape coupled with auger borings in the soil to

    identify the nature of the soil. There are several ways of classifying a soil, from the

    simple to the complex. A soil type may be as simple as ‘a sandy soil’ or ‘a clayey

    soil’ and this is often the perception of many land users, such as farmers or civil

    engineers, who see it as material they have to deal with to achieve an end result,

    such as the growing of a crop of wheat, or the building a road. Simple classifications

    tend to be of local and restricted relevance only. At the other end of the spectrum is

    the soil scientist who needs to understand how soils have formed, which types occur

    where, and for what the different types of soil can be used. The soil scientist seeks a

    much broader understanding, with the aim of underpinning the use and preservation

    of this important natural resource, and this has manifested itself in a number of

  • 34

    detailed soil classification systems worldwide. Soils have many important functions.

    Perhaps the best appreciated is the function to support the growth of agricultural and

    horticultural crops. Soil is the mainstay of agriculture and horticulture, forming as it

    does the medium in which growth and ultimately the yield of food producing crops

    occurs. Farmers and gardeners have worked with their soils over many centuries to

    produce increasing amounts of food to keep pace with the needs of a burgeoning

    world population. The soil's natural cycles go a long way in ensuring that the soil

    can provide an adequate physical, chemical and biological medium for crop growth.

    The farmer and horticulturalist have also become skilled in managing soils so that

    these natural cycles can be added to as necessary to facilitate adequate soil support

    and increasing yield to enhance production.

    1.9 Soil depth

    The mean depth of the soil layer within the sampling area is assessed by studying

    conditions in the terrain, both on the test area and in its immediate vicinity. The soil

    depth on the test area (humus layer + mineral soil) is specified as one of the

    following four classes: Deep soil Mean soil depth greater than 70 cm. Bedrock

    outcrop lacking in both the test area and its immediate vicinity with similar

    topography.

    Fairly

    shallow soil

  • 35

    Mean soil depth 20-70 cm. Occasional visible bedrock outcrop present. If there is

    only one bedrock outcrop it must lie wholly or partly within the test area.

    Very shallow soil

    Mean soil depth less than 20 cm. Frequent occurrence of bedrock outcrop. At least

    one bedrock outcrop within the test area. The soil may be deep within small fissures

    in the bedrock.

    Varying soil depth

    Wide variation in soil depth within the test area due to broad crevasses in the

    bedrock, which occasionally emerges as outcrop at the surface.

    1.10 Soil Texture

    Soil texture is a qualitative classification tool used in both the field and laboratory to

    determine classes for agricultural soils based on their physical texture. The classes

    are distinguished in the field by the "textural feel" which can be further clarified by

    separating the relative proportions of sand, silt and clay using grading sieves: The

    Particle-size distribution (PSD). The class is then used to determine crop suitability

    and to approximate the soils responses to environmental and management

    conditions such as drought or calcium (lime) requirements Soil texture has an

    important role in nutrient management because it influences nutrient retention. For

    instance, finer textured soils tend to have greater ability to store soil nutrients.

    In our discussion on soil mineral composition, we mentioned that the mineral

    particles of a soil are present in a wide range of size. Recall that the fine earth

    fraction includes all soil particles that are less than 2 mm. Soil particles within this

    fraction are further divided into the 3 separate size classes, which includes sand, silt,

  • 36

    and clay. The size of sand particles range between 2.0 and 0.05 mm; silt, 0.05 mm

    and 0.002 mm; and clay, less than 0.002 mm. Notice that clay particles may be over

    one thousand times smaller than sand particles. This difference in size is largely due

    to the type of parent material and the degree of weathering. Sand particles are

    generally primary minerals that have not undergone much weathering. On the other

    hand, clay particles are secondary minerals that are the products of the weathering

    of primary minerals. As weathering continues, the soil particles break down and

    become smaller and smaller.

    Soil texture is the relative proportions of sand, silt, or clay in a soil. The soil textural

    class is a grouping of soils based upon these relative proportions. Soils with the

    finest texture are called clay soils, while soils with the coarsest texture are called

    sands. However, a soil that has a relatively even mixture of sand, silt, and clay and

    exhibits the properties from each separate is called a loam. There are different types

    of loams, based upon which soil separate is most abundantly present. If the

    percentages of clay, silt, and sand in a soil are known (primarily through laboratory

    analysis), you may use the textural triangle to determine the texture class of your

    soil.

    1.11 Soil Erosion

    Soil Erosion is one form of soil degradation. Soil erosion is a naturally occurring

    process that affects all landforms. In agriculture, soil erosion refers to the wearing

    away of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of weather and wind or

    through forces associated with farming activities such as tillage. Erosion, whether it

    is by water, wind or tillage, involves three distinct actions – soil detachment,

    movement and deposition. Topsoil, which is high in organic matter, fertility and soil

    life, is relocated elsewhere "on-site" where it builds up over time or is carried "off-

    site" where it fills in drainage channels. Soil erosion reduces cropland productivity

    and contributes to the pollution of adjacent watercourses, wetlands, and lakes.

    Soil erosion can be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed or can occur

    at an alarming rate, causing serious loss of topsoil. Soil compaction, low organic

    matter, loss of soil structure, poor internal drainage, salinisation, and soil acidity

    problems are other serious soil degradation conditions that can accelerate the soil

    erosion process. The greater the intensity and duration of a rainstorm, the higher the

    erosion potential. The impact of raindrops on the soil surface can break down soil

    aggregates and disperse the aggregate material. Lighter aggregate materials such as

    very fine sand, silt, clay and organic matter are easily removed by the raindrop

    splash and runoff water; greater raindrop energy or runoff amounts are required to

    move larger sand and gravel particles. Soil movement by rainfall (raindrop splash) is

    usually greatest and most noticeable during short-duration, high-intensity

    thunderstorms. Although the erosion caused by longlasting and less-intense storms

    is not usually as spectacular or noticeable as that produced during thunderstorms,

    the amount of soil loss can be significant, especially when compounded over time.

    1.12 Land Use Concept of LandUse

    Landuse is a function of four variables, land, water, air and man, each plays in its

    own role in composing its life history. Land constitutes its body, water runs through

    its veins like blood, air gives it oxygen and man acts as the dynamic actor to reflect

  • 37

    its types, pattern and distribution. Land varies in altitudes, forms and expressions.

    Man has played his part on land to portray the different phases of his ties with it.

    The Homo sapiens moved from one topography to another where climate, flora and

    fauna also changed. He used land, flora and fauna to fit his limited wants. Men

    multiplied, their wants increased and become complex, the uses of land also

    increased, methods and technology also changed. Man was making his own map on

    the face of the earth to portray his link, adaptation, creation and destruction. Man

    has cleared the forest for shifting (Jhum) cultivation. He then used the land for

    large-scale farming, small-scale farming, intensive farming, mixed farming, dry

    farming, etc. He has used

    the land for one crop or another is a minor landuse problem, but to use each plot of

    land for the right cultivation under optimum conditions to obtain optimum yield is a

    significant problem. Man has learnt the use of grasslands, semi-arid and arid lands

    to his own advantage by applying improved methodology and utilisation of his

    accomplishments. Over a period of time, basically geographic pattern of agricultural

    landuse are the outcome of concurrent interaction between the variable

    combinations of natural condition and human circumstances. Primarily, these are

    influenced by natural condition and thereafter affected by human circumstances

    because of their colonizing capability. The human circumstances are mainly

    responsible for dynamism in agriculture landuse or changing cropland occupancy.

    Therefore, efficient cropland occupancy, say cropping pattern, implies the most

    successful use of agriculture land, consequent upon development of irrigation

    facilities and application of modern methods of farm technology. The key to the

    most important aspect of landuse lies in the relation of population to land. The crux

    of the review, therefore, refers to the study of the problems in use of land by man.

    According to R.H. Best, the term land use deals with the spatial aspects of human

    activities on the Land and with the way in which the land surface is adapted or could

    be adapted, to serve human needs. This leads one back to the village farm and

    farmer, to the fields, gardens, pastures, fallow land, and forest and to the isolated

    farmstead (Freeman, 1960). The land use shifts from agricultural uses to residential,

    industrial, transportation, and neighbourhood retail and service activities due to

    urbanization. A true nature of these dynamic qualities in land use emerges from a

    historical survey designed to reveal the successive development of inherent

    characteristics of

    land because 'some changes are short lived whereas others represent a more constant

    demand'

    (Jackson, 1963).

    Land Use Classification

    The conservation and development of land resource is in area needs special focus. It

    needs well thought and rational planning, which in turn depends upon minute

    observation of land use pattern. The aim of this study is clear visualization of local

    land environment. The intense and focused study of the details of land use puts us in

    a position to conserve the important elements of the nature, which otherwise lead in

  • 38

    a direction of destruction and consequently threaten the social strata. The present

    study focuses mainly on dimension, which is very important from the sustainability

    point of view that is distribution of different groups of land use, i.e. their ratios in

    the region. Therefore, it becomes very complex and diversified to study all the

    groups available at micro-level, homogenous groups are generalized to reduce the

    number of groups, and these simplified groups of land use are called generalized

    land use classification. World Land Use Classification mainly recognizes nine

    categories. These are Settlement and Associated Non Agricultural Land,

    Horticulture, Tree and Permanent Crops,

    Crop Land, Improved Permanent Pasture, Improved Grazing Land, Wood Land,

    Swamps and Marshes, Unproductive Land.In India, a standard classification system

    is yet to develop. National Atlas and The land use classification presented by All

    India Soil and Land Use Survey 1970 is as follows:

    1. Forest Land (F) F1 Without Canopy F2 Sparse Forest F3 General Forest F4 Fully

    been adopted at block level: Forest Cover, Barren and cultivable waste land, Current

    Fallow land, Other Fallow land, Barren & uncultivable Land, Land put to non-

    agricultural Use, Pastures and Grazing Land, Area under bush, forest & garden, Net

    Built-Up Land It is an area of human habitation developed due to non-agricultural use and that has

    a cover of buildings, transport and communication, utilities in association with

    water, vegetation and vacant lands. For delineating built – up land built up polygons

    interpreted under settlement.

    Built-Up Area (Rural) These are the lands used for human settlement and are of size comparatively less

    than the urban settlements of which more than 80% of the people are involved in the

    primary activity of agriculture. All the agricultural villages covering 5 hectares area

    and more are included in this category. These are the built-up areas, smaller, mainly

    associated with agriculture and allied sectors and non-commercial activities with

    population size less than 5000, generally lack supporting facilities that are unique to

    urban areas like hospitals, industries (large and medium scale), institutional etc.

    They appear in dark bluish green in the core built-up area and bluish in the

    periphery size varies from small to big; irregular and discontinuous in appearance;

    can be seen in clusters con-contiguous or scattered.

    Built-up Land (Urban) All places with a municipality, corporation or cantonment or which are notified as

    town areas and all other places, which satisfy the criteria of a minimum population

    of 5000, at least 45 percent of whose male working population is non-agricultural

    and having a density of population of at least 215 per sq. km. are placed under this

    category (Census of India). It comprises areas of intensive use with much of the land

    covered by intensive use and covered by structures. It includes residential,

    recreational, public & semi-public, transportation, communication and isolated areas

    such as parks, playgrounds, open spaces and vegetated areas. Burhanpur city area is

    classified in this class.

    Agricultural Land These are the lands primarily used for farming and for production of food, fibre, and

    other commercial and horticultural crops. It includes land under crops (irrigated and

    unirrigated, fallow, plantation etc.).

    Cropland These are the areas with standing crop as on the date of satellite overpass. Cropped

    areas appear in bright red to red in colour with varying shape and size in a

    contiguous to noncontiguous pattern. They are widely distributed in different

    terrains; prominently appear in the irrigated areas irrespective of the source of

    irrigation.

    Forest These are the areas bearing an association predominantly of trees and other

    vegetation types (within the notified forest boundaries) capable of producing timber

    and other forest produce. They comprise of thick and dense canopy of tall trees,

    which can be evergreen, semi evergreen or deciduous (moist/dry/thorn). Evergreen

    forest includes both coniferous and tropical broadleaved evergreen species and

    predominantly remains green throughout the year. Semi-evergreen is a forest type

    that includes a combination of evergreen and deciduous species with the former

  • 40

    dominating the canopy cover. Deciduous forest types are of predominantly

    composed of species, which shed their leaves once a year, especially during

    summer. They exhibit bright red to dark red in colour in varying sizes, smooth to

    medium texture depending on the crown density, contiguous to non-contiguous in

    pattern based on their location. The size can be irregular and discontinuous

    occupying medium relief mountain/hill slopes within the notified areas. Forest blank

    are the openings amidst forest areas, devoid of tree cover, observed as openings of

    assorted size and shapes as manifested on the imagery. They appear in light yellow

    to light brown in tone, generally small in size. They possess regular to irregular

    shape, scattered in the forested areas. Most of these areas are seen along hill

    tops/slopes midst forest areas. Forest blanks are also to be included in this category.

    Dense/Closed This category includes all the areas where the canopy cover/density is more than 40%.

    Open/Degraded This category includes all the forest areas where the canopy cover/density ranges

    between 10 – 40%.

    Wastelands Wasteland is described as degraded land which can be brought under vegetative

    cover with reasonable effort and which is currently underutilized and land which is

    deteriorating for lack of appropriate water and soil management or an account of

    natural causes. Wastelands can result from inherent / imposed disabilities such as by

    location, environment.

    Dense Scrub These areas possess shallow and skeletal soils, at times chemically degraded,

    extremes of slopes, severely eroded and lands subjected to excessive aridity with

    scrubs dominating the landscape. They have a tendency for intermixing with

    cropped areas .

    Open Scrub This category has a similar description as mentioned in the earlier class excepting

    that they possess sparse vegetation or devoid of scrub and have a thin soil cover.

    Barren/Rocky/Stony Waste These are rock exposures of varying lithology often barren and devoid of soil and

    vegetation cover. They occur amidst hill-forests as openings or as isolated exposures

    on plateau and plains. Such lands can be easily discriminated from other categories

    of wastelands because of their characteristic spectral response. They appear in

    greenish blue to yellow to brownish in colour depending on the rock type. They vary

    in size with irregular to discontinuous shape with a linear to contiguous or dispersed

    pattern. They are located in steep isolated hillocks/hill slopes, crests, plateau and

    eroded plains associated with barren and exposed rocky/stony wastes, lateritic

    outcrops, mining and quarrying sites.

    Water Bodies This category comprises areas with surface water, either impounded in the form of

    ponds, lakes and reservoirs or flowing as streams, rivers, canals etc. These are seen

    clearly on the satellite image in blue to dark blue or cyan colour depending on the

    depth of water.

    River /Stream/Canal

  • 41

    Rivers/streams are natural course of water flowing on the land surface along a

    definite channel/slope regularly or intermittently towards a sea in most cases or a

    lake or an inland basin in desert areas or a marsh or another river. Depending upon

    the nature of availability of water, rivers are sub-divided into perennial or seasonal.

    They appear in light to dark blue in colour, long, narrow to wide depending on the

    size of the river. They appear in contiguous, at times nonlinear pattern and

    associated with drainage pattern on hill slopes, flood plains or uplands, at times with

    vegetation along the banks.

    Lakes / Ponds These are accumulation of water in a depression of various sizes either natural or

    saline Lakes / ponds are those that retain water in them either for one season or

    throughout the year and usually not subject to extreme fluctuation in water level.

    Ponds are body of water limited in size, either natural or artificial, regular in shape,

    smaller in size than a lake, generally located near settlements.

    Reservoir / Tanks Reservoir is an artificial lake created by construction of a dam across the river

    specifically for irrigation, and water supply for domestic/industrial needs, flood

    control, etc., either singly or in combination. Tanks are small lakes of impounded

    water ways constructed on land surface for irrigation. They appear in light blue to

    dark blue depending on the depth from small to large sizes. They possess regular to

    irregular shape dispersed to linear, occupying lowlands, plains. They are associated

    with croplands, low lands and reservoirs surrounded by hills with or without

    vegetation.

    1.13 Land Capability

    Land capability classification is a system of grouping soils primarily on the basis of

    their capability to produce common cultivated crops and pasture plants without

    deteriorating over a long period. Land capability classification is sub-divided into

    capability class and capability subclass nationally. Some states also use a capability

    unit. Land capability classification has value as a grouping of soils. National

    Resource Inventory information, Farmland Protection Policy Act, and many field

    office technical guides have been assembled according to these classes. The system

    has been adopted in many textbooks and has wide public acceptance. Some state

    legislation has used the system for various applications. All map unit components,

    including miscellaneous areas, are assigned a capability class and subclass. Land

    capability units can be used to differentiate subclasses at the discretion of the state.

    Capability class and subclass are assigned to map unit components in the national

    soil information system.

    Chapter - 2 District Water Profile

    Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the land or soil. t is used to assist in

    the growing of agricultural crops, maintenance of landscapes, and revegetation of

    disturbed

    soils in dry areas and during periods of inadequate rainfall. There is a great necessity

    of

    irrigation in Indian agriculture. India has a great diversity and variety of climate and

    weather conditions. These conditions range from extreme of heat to extreme of cold

    and from extreme dryness to excessive rainfall. Irrigation is the need of Indian

    agriculture.

    Uncertainty of Monsoon rainfall both in time and in place.

    Irregularity in distribution of rainfall throughout the year.

    Excessive rainfall causing flood.

    Draught is an annual event in some areas.

    India is a land of Rabi Crops. However, there is not rainfall in winter months.

    Some soils need more water.

    Introduction of H.Y.V seeds and multiple cropping need water throughout the

    year.

    The types of Irrigation mainly practiced in India are:

    2.1 Crop Water Requirement

    Crop water requirement is the water required by the plants for its survival, growth,

    development and to produce economic parts. This requirement is applied either

    naturally by precipitation or artificially by irrigation. Hence, the crop water

    requirement includes all losses like: a) Transpiration loss through leaves (T) b)

    Evaporation loss through soil surface in cropped area (E) c) Amount of weather

    used by plants (WP) for its metabolic activities whichis estimated as less than 1% of

    the total water absorption. These three components cannot be separated so easily.

    Hence the ET loss is taken as crop water use or crop water consumptive use. d)

    Other application losses are conveyance loss, percolation loss, runoff

    loss, etc., (WL). e) The water required for special purposes (WSP) like puddling

    operation, ploughing operation, land preparation, leaching, requirement, for the

    purpose of weeding, for dissolving fertilizer and chemical, etc. Hence the water

    requirement is symbolically represented as:

    WR = T + E + WP + WL + WSP

    (The other application losses and special purposes are mostly indented for wet land

    cultivation. Hence for irrigated dry land crop the ET loss alone is accounted for crop

    water requirement). The estimations of the water requirement of crop are one of the

    basic needs for crop planning on the farm and for the planning of any irrigation

    project.

    Chapter - 3 Water Availability

    3.1 Surface Water Scenario

    Surface water is water on the surface of the planet such as in a stream, river, lake,

    wetland, or pond/tank. It can be contrasted with groundwater and atmospheric

    water. Non-saline surface water is replenished by precipitation and by recruitment

    from ground-water. It is lost through evaporation, seepage into the ground where it

    becomes ground-water, used by plants for transpiration, extracted by mankind for

    agriculture, living, industry etc. or discharged to the sea where it becomes saline. To

    derive Surface Water volume basically, we measure volumes and surface areas of a

    set of farm ponds and tanks, then develop a relationships between surface areas and

    volumes. After that using these relationships calcuted volumes of the whole study

    region surface waterbodies based on our remote-sensing surface area.

    3.2 Status of Surface Water Availability

    Surface water is water that is found in lakes, rivers, streams, ponds, and other

    natural watercourses. This valuable resource provides drinking water, water supply,

    and supports important industries such as fishing, farming and electric power

    generation. Surface water supports various recreational activities such as swimming

    and boating, and provides habitat for aquatic life. Overall, a clean, abundant supply

    of surface water supports the health of humans and aquatic ecosystems, a strong

    economy, and provides a high quality of life for any region.
