Watershed Development

Watershed Development

Restoring degraded land and securing water resources for sustainable rural agriculture.

The Watershed Development program focuses on improving soil and water conservation in rural landscapes. By restoring degraded land and improving groundwater recharge, the project helps farming communities maintain sustainable agricultural productivity.

Imaigal Trust works closely with local communities to implement watershed activities that improve water availability, reduce soil erosion, and support long-term environmental sustainability.
