Micro-watershed development projects help to manage and develop watersheds in areas, that are used to feed tanks, reservoirs and lakes in drought-prone and semi-arid areas.
A watershed is an area of land, usually a depression, that acts as a transit reservoir for holding water from rain or snow. This water is then directed to other locations, which need water for purpose of agriculture or for drinking.
Thus, excess water in one area, is utilised in areas with scarcity for water.
