Hydrological and geo morphological characteristics and crop planning of 73E/17 watershed of Kandhamal district of Odisha, India
Hydrological, geomorphological characteristics, crop planning, watershed
Abstract
This experiment was conducted at Dept.of Soil and Water Conservation and Engineering, CAET, OUAT, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. It was conducted to estimate the hydrologic parameters of 73E/17 watershed of Kandhamal district under North- eastern ghat zone of Odisha. In this study the various hydrological parameters of 73E/17 watershed of Kandhamal district were found out using the toposheet. To carry out this experiment the contour lines were marked to demarcate the high points and the delineation of watershed was done with this the stream line was also marked which carry the runoff from the entire catchment area. Various features of hydrological parameters were found out. Simulating these data the runoff volume could be calculated and the possibilities of construction of river valley projects in that area can be obtained. The watershed planning and the cropping pattern of the watershed in the command area have been carried out.
