140+ Farmers benefit from Tank Desiltation Activities

We have facilitated the desiltation in five tanks in Andhra Pradesh and excavated 13389 loads of silt and improved the water storage capacity. 142 Farmers from five villages applied silt in about 328 acres of land improving the soil fertility of their land thereby improving crop quality.
The silt applied increases the water retention capacity of the soil and boosts organic matter content improving the soil fertility for cultivation. The improved storage capacity of the tanks provides uninterrupted water supply for irrigation and the replenishment of the groundwater table.
