CHAPTER-V - IRRIGATION AND FLOOD CONTROL |
| WATER RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT |
Twelve major perennial rivers of the State namely Mahanadi, Mahi, Narmada, Tapti, Chambal, Betwa, Sone, Wainganga,, Indrawati, Sabri,Ken and Pench originate in Madhya Pradesh and flow to the seven bordering States. The estimated annual run-off is 115 MAF of which 88 MAF can be harnessed for irrigation. The annual ground Water recoverable from "recharge has been assessed at 39 MAF. It is estimated that about 50% of the same can be harnessed for irrigation. In terms of area, it has been estimated that the State has an irrigation potential of 102 lakh ha., which, when fully utilised, can irrigate 52 % of the present net sown area of 197 lakh ha. Against this, development of irrigation potential from all sources was only 30.8 % at the end of Eighth Plan whereas the National average is 67.43 %. Thus, considerable efforts are required to bring Madhya Pradesh at par with the national average. At present 26 Major, 50 Medium and 916 Minor projects latest cost Rs. 9292.69 crores are at different stages of construction created potential (3/98) was 12.97 lakh hect. The designed irrigation potential of these schemes is 29.58 lakh hectares.
