water management and agriculture production is correlated with each other and both are seems to be neglected .in India water efficiency is about 30 to 40% one of the lowest in the world as against China is55% it is evident that we requires more effective water management and conservation to enhance agriculture production .Where as71% of earth is covered with water, less then 1% is available for agriculture,driking and other use as demand for food is increasing requirement of water will simentanisly increase we are still unable to manage flood , ground water label is decreasing it is well-known fact. Are irrigation potential is estimated that 13.9 million Ha, 17.4% for minor irrigation project and 64.05 million from ground water. It is time to extend this area.
And we should enforce flood control system extend the area of irrigation and agriculture. It is surprising that we are not managing the flood water of our rivers. The river Kosi, Bhramaputra, Ganga, Son, Sharda still playing havoc while agriculture is still facing drought situation due to which agriculture production is on declining. Effecting growth of the country and food inflation is going up.
So it is right time to make crisis into opportunities manage water resources and agriculture properly.
