Abstract:

Impact evaluation of soil and water conservation measures on groundwater recharge conducted at Pedgaon watershed, Dist.- Parbhani in year 2019-2020 by considering implemented soil and water conservation measures. To evaluate the impact of soil and water conservation it is need to compare pre development data and post development data of Pedgaon watershed. For this purpose, percentage of ground water recharge out of total rainfall in year 2014-2015 and 2019-2020 in Pedgaon watershed was compared. Well inventory data such as depth of water in the well from bottom of well was collected for the year 2014-2015 and year 2019-2020. To evaluate the percentage of ground water recharge out of total rainfall with the help of Watertable Fluctuation Method was used. In year 2014-2015 total rainfall in Pedgaon watershed was 280 mm out of which 48.3 mm was recharged to groundwater table and in year 2019-2020 total rainfall in Pedgaon watershedwas586.1 mm out of which 143.00 mm was recharged to groundwater table. It was concluded that, in year 2014-2015 out of total rainfall 17.24 % of rainfall recharged to groundwater table and in year 2019-2020 out of total rainfall 24.33 % of rainfall recharged to groundwater table.
