Juxtaposed with the conventional thrust on irrigated agriculture, the watershed development program with their central focus on dryland farming, is a major policy initiative
in India for striking a balance between the two broad categories of farming systems, viz., irrigated and dryland. In that sense, the watershed development project
(WDP) is an important initiative to attain equity across regions, farms, and farmers operating under different agroclimatic conditions in India. However, there are
natural, agronomic, and fiscal constraints that may limit the potential equity in the
WDPs. Also, the equity concerns in WDPs, till now, have focused mainly on the intracommunity and intra-households, especially in a micro setting rather than dealing
with the inter-regional inequities and/or upstream-downstream issues in the context of
a larger watershed.
