This solution recharges borewell water through water harvesting, assisting farmers in irrigating their crops and urban rainwater harvesting for industry and housing societies.
Sankalpa Rural Development Society’s direct bore-well recharge technique combines common rainwater harvesting practices with innovative practices to replenish ground-tables and aquifers with naturally filtered rainwater. Bore-wells recharged using their technique have resulted in increased water-level in bore wells. Even completely dried bore-wells can be revived by proper management and utilization of rainwater. The use of locally procured natural materials enables them to deliver the bore-well recharge service at an extremely low cost.
Excessive digging of new bore-wells and incessant use of existing ones has resulted in severe depletion of groundwater levels rendering many bore-wells dry. SRDS’s innovative technique can be customized to meet everyone’s needs. Apart from resolving water-scarcity issues, this bore-well recharge technique also ensures the storage of naturally filtered rainwater in natural water-reservoirs i.e. aquifers and water-tables for use by future generations.
Recharging the aquifer affects not only the bore well it is implemented on but the surrounding wells also. It restores water to the earth instead of allowing it to all runoff.
Borewell recharging helps tackle water shortage problem all over India, providing access to clean drinking water that can also be used for other purposes.
The borewells help farmers irrigate their lands, thus resulting in a better yield and increased income.
