Water… Builds Life Better…


Water… Builds Life Better…

It was impossible but we made it possible this year with Agrarian Prosperity Program, say the villagers of Dahupani. They have successfully got the crop yield. Well, this not about regular cropping but they have done it for two times in a single year. This is quite amazing because previously they used to manage it for only a single time. The reason had to depend only on rainwater. But they have the desired water facilities for irrigation.

Last year the farmers of Dahupani had made up their minds to make some alternative arrangements to provide irrigational water facilities to their dried cultivable land. Apparently they decided to share their concern to APP in this regard. Firstly, they made a very good survey at the village level to find out a suitable location and source for irrigational water and they concluded to go for spring well repair and renovation to fulfil their irrigation requirement as well as the cleanliness of the water which is also a good source of drinking water.

Since the villagers are very much focused to make some difference at their village, they actively contributed time and labour to complete the canal Construction work. The village development committee had finalized the water management plan, which was fairly acceptable to all the farmers. Multiple cropping was just only a dream for the farmers of that village, which is possible now because of their participation with APP. Today 10 to 15 poor farmers having 10 acres of lands are in a stage where they can think and plan for the future of their children.

"Yesterday’s dream became the reality of today."
