Warana River is the life of this land. Even
though three weirs were constructed across this river, they
were not sufficient to take care of the hungry land. Therefore
efforts have been made to promote the lift irrigation schemes.
Lift irrigation schemes on co-operative basis were encouraged
by providing financial aid, technical know-how and managerial
help. An independent irrigation department looks after all
these co-operative lift irrigation schemes and even it has
involved in giving technical advice on rehabilitation of some
such schemes. Around 65 lift irrigation schemes are functioning.
Each lift irrigation scheme is quenching the thirst of around
120 acres of land. Along with this, three big lift irrigation
schemes are inundating around 4600 acres of land.
