Volume : II, Issue : V, June - 2012 “REGION WISE REQUIREMENT OF WATER RESOURCES FOR AGRICULTURE IN DROUGHT PRONE AREA OF PARNER TAHSIL, DIST-AHMEDNAGAR : A GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS” P.Y.THOMBARE, M.R.KARALE and S. C. ADAVITOTE Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The main aim of this research paper is, to analyze, region wise relative requirement of water for
agriculture at village level. Regionalization of study area have been done on the basis of decadal population
growth and density of population per square km. Thus, ultimately evolved the nine micro regions.
Further it work out that “Index of Irrigation Requirement”(Ir.). There are 131 villages included in Parner
tahsil. Out of them 68 villages having very low ( Ir. < 0.15 ) requirement of water for agriculture, whereas 26
villages shows low ( Ir. 0.15 – 0.30), 15 denotes medium (Ir. 0.30 – 0.45), 10 are high (Ir. 0.45 – 0.60 ) and 12
villages observed very high ( Ir. 0.60 >) requirement of water for agriculture. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : P.Y.THOMBARE, M.R.KARALE and S. C.
