3.3.1 Land degradation due to waste water irrigation
The purchaser established a Degree and PG college. The establishment blocked runoff water flow and drained all its sewage in the gully at its downstream, which was running through the research farm. The gully had become part of several research works such as farm pond with earthen dam, soil and water conservation structures and experimental plots of ecological studies, which produced international research articles. The research progress made installation of three deep bore wells for carrying out agricultural research studies on the farm. Thus such undesirable features must be happening in under the upper reach of developed riparian areas
The sewage water filled in the farm pond established in gully and spoiled all farm roads making farm road non usable. The deep tube wells dried down, making no cultivation of experimental as well as other part of farm land. Thus, entire asset created in almost four decades got vanished and national prestigious facility reached to condition of abandoning. The water qualities of the riparian areas were already spoiled, for which alternative innovative measure as displayed in Fig 2 was innovated.
