520			_aWater is a life sustaining product and is the most important natural resource for human survival on earth. It is an essential element required for daily household chores. The scarcity of water for drinking, agriculture, industry and domestic purposes in the recent years is worrying for all. The reasons for the scarcity are both natural and artificial. Unless serious efforts are made in the water harvesting front, society will have to face bitter consequences in the near future. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Restore and Recover technology in water resource management has to be adopted. The current study tries to examine the production of selected agriculture commodities like paddy, vegetables and jowar in Mahabubnagar district of Telangana with the objectives of analyzing the status of water availability towards agriculture and domestic uses; studying the socio-economic conditions of the farmers; analyzing the revenue, cost and profit in the production of selected crops; the cropping pattern of the farmers and the factors influencing the shift in the cropping pattern; and the impact of water scarcity on production of crops in the study area. – Reproduced
