Advances in rainwater harvesting and soil-water conservation techniques significantly improve crop productivity and climate resilience in arid and semi-arid regions by maximizing moisture retention and minimizing surface runoff.
In-Situ (Field-Based) Rainwater Harvesting
Tied Ridges: Ridges created along contours with intermittent cross-ties that block runoff, pooling water to increase infiltration in the plant root zone.
Zai Pits: Small dug pits filled with organic matter that concentrate scarce rainfall and nutrients directly around individual crop seeds.
Broad Bed and Furrow (BBF): Alternating raised beds for crops and sunken furrows designed to capture and slowly drain excess water into localized storage
