Watershed is a geohydrological unit draining to a common point by a system of drains. Watershed management is an adaptive, comprehensive, integrated multi-resource management planning process that seeks to balance healthy ecological, economic, and cultural/social conditions within a watershed. As human populations expand and demands upon natural resources increase, the need to manage the environments in which people live becomes more important but also more difficult. This book provides a comprehensive presentation of the realization of improved rainfed agriculture yield in semi-arid and dry land areas.
