Agricultural sector is the main consumer of our available water resources and demand of water in agricultural sector is continuously increasing. This study is an attempt to prepare a plan for proper utilization of groundwater of farm of Raipur campus of Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, Chhattisgarh. In watershed different components plays important role for recharging the groundwater such as rainfall, canal irrigation, bore well irrigation and ponds/tank irrigation. This is measured through rainfall data and electricity bills. Groundwater recharge by rainfall was 54,900 m3, from canal was 60,205.21 m3, from bore wells 218.56 m3 and from Tanks/Ponds was 8655.36 m3 respectively. Therefore, total recharge by different irrigation sources was 1, 37,680.13 m3. Managing groundwater (consumptive use) in the study area means to reducing the groundwater extraction, suggested three Lift Irrigation Schemes (LIS-1, LIS-2 and LIS-3) are proposed at appropriate location at the downstream of Bharri Dam at Chhokranala.
