Hydrological monitoring of a watershed at Chinnatekur, Kurnool District (Andhra Pradesh) in the semi-arid zone of peninsular India, shows that runoff and soil loss from watersheds treated with conservation measures such as contour trenches are reduced by more than 100% when compared to an untreated watershed. Soil and water conservation measures improved ground water recharge, resulting in a 36% increase in crop area which could be irrigated by wells, which helped to increase crop yields by 69%. Detailed analysis of rainfall, rainfall-runoff relationship, water balance of the watershed and ground water recharge are discussed.
