Integrated Natural Resource Management (INRM) in Bundelkhand region can address water scarcity and land degradation through a combination of in-situ water and soil conservation (like contour bunding, mulching), ex-situ water harvesting (farm ponds, check dams), sustainable land use (intercropping, integrated farming systems), and participatory watershed management. These strategies replenish groundwater, reduce runoff and soil erosion, improve soil moisture, and provide diverse income sources for local communities, creating a holistic and sustainable approach to resource management.

Thanks!
