Is RWH a feasible technology in India?
The feasibility of rainwater harvesting in India or any area is highly dependent upon the amount and intensity of rainfall. Other variables, such as catchment area and type of catchment surface, usually can be modified according to household needs. As rainfall is usually unevenly distributed throughout the year, RWH serves as only a supplement to other sources of household water. Therefore RWH may help to a great extent in solving the water crisis but it can never be relied for year round supply of water.
