Abstract
MPKV Rahuri Central Campus (West) watershed, from Ahilyanagar District, Maharashtra, was selected for evaluation in view of prioritization for soil and water conservation and the development work. Six catchments were identified as per their outlet locations. In the drainage network, high priority for land treatments was found to 1st and 2nd order streams, due to steeper slopes the runoff generation would have been increased and for water storage structures high priority was found to 3rd and 4th order streams because of gentle and nearly flat slope. In case of slope of the study area, high priority was found to the land with more than 8% slope. Whereas, low priority were considered for the land with slope range of 1 to 8%.
