My Native place is one village near Ramanagara district, close to bangalore India.
My bore well 1300 feet done (its full stone) from 280 feet to 1305, still it was may be , but we stopped at 1300.
please advice if is there any way to increase water
Thanks in advance.
1,000 feet is becoming the trend… This is becoming the condition of all farms in India in summer.
You can fill the borehole with rainwater… think of it as a massive underground tank… create a Tent with plastic roof… 10 ft long or 100 ft long or 1,000 ft… the bigger it is the more water it will catch… channel this rooftop water into the borehole for entire monsoon.
It will serve 3 purpose… 1) it will fill borehole with water… 2) it will provide shaded area for farm workers or you to rest…. 3) will sill shade the surrounding soil from the sun’s heat… after all the soil is lying bare without clothes… facing sun for 12 hrs a day.
After just 1yr (3 months) of rain you will see the difference. Since Bangalore receives less rain… it might take 2-3 yrs… then you will see that the water table is rising.
Earth is like a BANK… you need to payback… what you withdrew from it… especially since chemical farming is so commonly practiced water doesnt enter the earthen rocks… if flows away from the surface.
BTW… What’s the rate of Land in your area? Per acre?
