Describe briefly the 'khadin' system of rainwater harvesting practised in Rajasthan.
उत्तर
The 'khadin' system of rainwater harvesting practised in Rajasthan has a long earthen embankment known as bund, which is built across the edges of sloping farmlands. The rain water flows down the slope and is stopped by bund. It then forms a reservoir. The water in the reservoir seeps into the land and can be used for growing crops.
