Water Pans / Dams

Water pans, also known as earth dams or rainwater harvesting structures, are designed to capture and store rainwater runoff from nearby catchment areas. These structures serve several vital purposes:

Agricultural Irrigation: Water pans provide a reliable source of water for crop irrigation, enabling year-round farming and improving agricultural productivity.
Livestock Watering: They ensure a steady supply of water for livestock, improving animal health and facilitating dairy and meat production.
Domestic Use: Water pans can be a source of clean drinking water for local communities, reducing the burden of water collection.
Erosion Control: They help control soil erosion by capturing runoff water, and preventing land degradation.
