Water Constrained Future
1. Permanent Physical Scarcity - population
2. Most of the water has already been utilized
3. Natural water cushions depleting
4. Water based economy – high manpower, low
productivity
5. Hydropower, a most efficient user dependent on
surface storages
6. New water use sectors are emerging
7. Skewed spatio-temporal water availability and
potential
8. Climate Changes
Towards Solutions
Meeting demands of Socio economic and
environment sectors
Solution in hand - surface storage
• Good Scope for hydropower
• Limited water for agriculture from storage
• Domestic & infrastructure big claimers in future
• Environmental needs – an essential area to be
considered
Expanding Management Approaches
Conventional
Linear cause-effect solutions
Comprehensive adaptive
Manage the Cause as well
Yet,
• The yield of major crops stagnant
• Uncertainty for farmers has increased
• Public sector investments increasing and essential

Meeting Agriculture Targets
• Economically feasible agriculture model for
small farms (inputs, technologies, markets)
• Protect high efficiency groundwater -recharge
• Crop zoning
• Low water use and salinity tolerant crops
• Livestock sub-sector
• New opportunities for rural labor force shifting
from farming; agro-based industry, local
business
Domestic, infrastructure supplies

From where this water will come?
1. Main storages – needs for allocation,
transfer from agriculture
From Existing canal system – some
allocations in saline areas, more will be
required for new projects
Local surface resources: small rivers,
lakes – replacement or protection
Groundwater – largest access, quality
and quantity threatened
Approach for domestic supply
management
• Protect quality of all water resources
• Priority to local resources
• Allocate and account all uses
