dc.description.abstract | Throughout history, man has been dependent on an adequate water supply for his food, security and well being. Water is a universal need and is considered the principal limiting factor for human life. Destruction of natural watersheds has caused critical water shortages affecting vast areas and populations. Ways to help insure adequate water supplies for household, agricultural and other uses are available to farms and communities. The technology is called water harvesting. Water harvesting is the practice of collecting and storing water from various sources for beneficial use. Water harvested from a watershed and conducted to ponds for storage can substantially increase available water for garden irrigation, livestock watering, aquaculture and other domestic needs. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | A travers les âges, l'homme a toujours été dépendant des ressources en eau pour sa nourriture, et son bien-être. L'eau est une nécessité universellement admise et est considérée comme la principal facteur limitant à la vie de l'homme. La destruction de nombreux bassins versants a diminué, pour de nombreuses populations, les ressources en eau sur de vastes régions. Dans les milieux ruraux on a rcours à de nombreux moyens pour améliorer les ressources en eau nécessaires aux besoins ménagers, à l'agriculture, et autres utilisations individuelles ou collectives. Les techniques font référence à la récolte de l'eau. La récolte de l'eau consiste à capturer et à stocker l'eau de différentes provenances dans un but utilitaire. La capture de l'eau d'un bassin versant et son stockage dans un étang peuvent augmenter considérablement les quantités d'eau disponibles pour l'irrigation, l'abreuvage du bétail, l'aquaculture et toutes utilisations domestiques. | fr |

El agua es una necesidad universal y es el principal factor limitante para la existencia de la vida humana. La destrucción de la cuencas naturales hidrográficas ha causado una crítica escasez de la misma, afectando extensas áreas y poblaciones. Sin embargo, a través de la tecnología conocida como captación ("cosecha") del agua, granjas y comunidades pueden asgurar el abastecimiento del agua para uso doméstico y agrícola. La captación consiste en recolectar y almacenar agua proveniente de diversas fuentes para su uso benéfico. El agua captada de uno cuenca y conducida a estanques reservorios puede aumentar significativamente el suminstro de ésta para el riego de huertos, bebederos de animales, la acuicultura y usos domésticos. | es |
