The WB-assisted programme to be implemented in five districts in State
The State government proposes to implement a new World Bank-assisted multi-State watershed project REWARD (Rejuvenating Watersheds for Agriculture Resilience through Innovative Development) in the drought-prone districts of Anantapur, Chittoor, YSR Kadapa, Prakasam and Visakhapatnam.
The main objective of the project is to strengthen the capacities of national and State institutions to implement science-based watershed development for improving farmers’ resilience and soil moisture outcomes in selected watersheds .
