1. Themes of the Rainfed Project:
Assessment of the quantity of water stock and determination of the factors limiting more efficient use of water stocks in the farming system
Assessment of the quantity of water stocks
Identification of the biophysical conditions where small scale irrigation systems are feasible
identification of management and marketing factors limiting more efficient water use in farming systems

2. Themes of the Rainfed Project:
