Importance of Watersheds in Irrigation Engineering?
Importance of Watersheds:
Water Resource Management: The management of water resources such as the supply of domestic water, Industrial water, agriculture, and hydropower production, and all depends on watersheds.
Soil Conservation: Watersheds contribute to soil conservation by reducing erosion and promoting sustainable land use practices.
Flood Protection: By controlling the flow of surcharge water and lessening the effects of periods of intense rainfall, effective watershed management helps lessen the likelihood of floods.
Environmental Protection: Good watersheds protect Natural Habitats, Maintain Biodiversity, & give the long-term viability of ecosystems.
Agriculture & Irrigation: Watersheds have an impact on irrigation design because they control crop water availability and distribution.
