Abstract:
In the years 2021-2022, this study was conducted in Rajasthan’s Luni Block of the Jodhpur district. 120 respondents were chosen using the random sample approach, and data were gathered through in-person interviews using a pre-tested interview schedule. Appropriate statistical analysis was then carried out to determine the meaningful outcome. The study design used was descriptive research design. From these settlements, two categories of respondent’s beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries of the Watershed Project were chosen. The respondents cited time-consuming operations, land fragmentation into irregular shapes, water stagnation in bunded areas, etc. as their main challenges. One of the most important recommendations made by the participants was to offer financial support for these activities.
