To increase food security in a drought-prone area, the water harvesting, capture and storage of rainwater are technologies proven for uses during dry periods. Erosion control and groundwater revive are extra favorable circumstances of water harvesting techniques that contribute to agricultural development and resource conservation. The contour map of the study area is used to select the location for the creation of the farm pond. Clay loam is found in soil texture analysis. For clay loam soil, the study area with a depth of 3.5 m and a side slope of 1.5:1 may be suitable. The available rainfall was computed for 75% probability by using empirical formula is found to 1.41483 ha-m. The tube well draft was calculated to be 0.8640 ha-m. The capacity of the designed farm pond is 0.6639 ha-m. The proposed pond facilitated total supplemental irrigation of 8.5 cm depth to an area of 6.5 ha paddy.
