Pepsico is building 13 small dams to irrigate. They call it Water Harvesting Centers ! Incidentally, Pepsico produced 300,000 tonnes of tomatoes in collaboration with the farmers of Punjab.The ancient Sages knew about the importance of Rainwater Harvesting. When they built temples, they made it mandatory that a temple must have a large pond to harvest water.
The temple not only reveres the Unknown, but also sees to the welfare of the people and Water Management is important.
My village at Annakara has enough water. This is because the large temple pond harnesses rainwater and stores it.
The famous Guruvayur temple has a large water tank. A new one is being built now at a cost of 40 lakhs !
