June 06, 2019: A Training was organized on Rain Water Harvesting, and Soil & Water Conservation for the staff and volunteers of SMSSS on 01 June 2019. The resource person of the day Ms Sunitha E, from the Agricultural Department highlighted the importance of soil and water conservation and provided the tips for protecting the soil from erosion. Under the present circumstances it is very essential to harvest water in whatever way possible. If we do not start thinking collectively and start working creatively towards harvesting the rain water, we will be struggling for water in the near future.
