Rural Development Trust helps harness solar energy -Ravi P Benjamin |
-TheHansIndia.com Kothacheruvu (Anantapur): SC, ST farmers in several mandals in the district are opting for solar pump sets to enjoy uninterrupted power for seven hours at a stretch for their horticulture and vegetable plantations, thanks to the Rural Development Trust (RDT) which is giving a huge fillip to solar energy. Farmers unable to purchase pump sets or go in for borewells on their own, are being encouraged to form small groups for water-sharing.The RDT is not only digging community borewells but also encouraging farmers to come together and form groups of four and five and share the water resources by implementing drip irrigation. The groundwater level today is not what it used to be in the 1980s.Back then, it was enough for a borewell to be sunk up to 15-20 metres for an abundant source of water, but today, one needs to dig to at least 400 metres to find any trace of water at all.
