The aim of the set of modules is to cover useful elements of AWM from estimating runoff at micro and small watershed level up to irrigated field water management. The modules thus aim at covering water availability estimnation, water control and management, soil-water-plant relationship, water lifting and conveyance and irrigation methods. Each module is divided into a number of chapters and illustrated with figures, tables charts and examples. The modules are also useful as a reference and teaching material at technical, vocational, educational, and training centres and as a field guide. The publication extensively use existing knowledge in the form of texts, figures, demonstration materials derived from various sources such as books, grey literature such as web material, reports, manuals etc. specifically they have immensely used materials from FAO, ICRISAT and IWMI documentations with or without citation to the specific references.

The purpose of the module is to demonstrate how scientific information can make a big difference in proper understanding of the differences in WS impacts across projects and sites. The module presents scientific information in an easy-to-understand format. Concepts are explained and applied and implications discussed making the module highly practice oriented. Rich scientific information on case study sites is presented in detail to help visualize the case study characteristics clearly so that the learners can relate the information to sites they are familiar with. Toward the end of the module, learners will be exposed to a decision support tool that can be run on Microsoft Excel, which is designed to assist in water resource planning for watershed at the mesoscale. It can also be used for assessing changing land use and climate regimes within the watershed. The tools help in exploring recharge interventions, changes in cropping patterns, and irrigation practices.
