In the current era, the need for effective and efficient resource management practices has become increasingly evident, especially in the case of water. India with a groundwater extraction rate of 250 million cu. m annually, has the highest ground-water extraction rate in the world. Of the total 80% of the water that is utilised for agriculture, 65% is extracted from groundwater (Rajendra 2016)[1]. As 54 % of the country gets affected by water crisis, it manifests itself in acute agrarian distress resulting in farmer suicides.
Unlike the regions of the Indo-Gangetic plan with alluvial aquifers, the southern semi-arid regions have hard crystalline rocks and shallow aquifers supporting very low aquifer recharge. Thus, extraction and declining water levels continues to adversely affect the population as a whole, particularly the farmers. Awareness and understanding of these issues and building region-centric alternative technologies for water conservation is the need of the hour
