Estimation of probable maximum precipitation for planning of soil and water conservation structures

The Southern part of Banswara district of Rajasthan state is mostly dominated by tribal populations. The socio-economic conditions of the tribals are pathetic by all standards. Even though the average rainfall is very good, the region is always under influence of drought. This mainly due to the lack of management, inadequate knowledge and inadvertence of water conservation pratices.
