Abstract

Watershed development programs play a crucial role in sustainable rural development, particularly in semi-arid and drought-prone regions like Nandurbar District, Maharashtra. These programs focus on soil and water conservation, sustainable agriculture, and community participation to enhance livelihoods. This study explores the various watershed development initiatives implemented in Nandurbar, their methodologies, impact on agriculture and water availability, and the overall socio-economic benefits to the region.
