Explanation:

A check dam is a small, sometimes temporary, dam constructed across a swale, drainage ditch, or waterway to counteract erosion by reducing water flow velocity.[1] Check dams themselves are not a type of new technology; rather, they are an ancient technique dating from the second century A.D.[2] Check dams are typically, though not always, implemented in a system of several dams situated at regular intervals across the area of interest.[3]

Khadins - providing agriculture in the driest climates

A Khadin, also called a Dhora, is an ingenious construction designed to harvest surface runoff water for agriculture. Its main feature is a very long (100-300 m) earthen embankment built across the lower hill slopes lying below gravelly uplands.
