This project aims to assess water stocks, identify limiting factors, and develop technologies for more efficient water use in rainfed farming systems. It also focuses on the adaptation and integration of new technologies through participatory approaches, on-farm testing of water-efficient production systems, and the development of guidelines for watershed management based on improved production systems.

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
Themes of the Rainfed Project: • Development of crop production technologies for more efficient water use in rice based farming systems, crop-animal systems and vegetable-fruit systems • Development of technologies for water collection and supply in unstable and small-scale water resources • Development of production technologies with improved water use efficiencies for vegetable and fruit crops • Breeding and utilisation of biomass forage crops resistant to water stress conditions
Themes of the Rainfed Project: • Adaptation and integration into farming systems of new technologies through participatory approaches • On-farm testing of water-efficient, high-value production systems • Development of guidelines for more water-efficient watershed management based on improved production systems
