Reliable irrigation is the foundation of agricultural growth, food security, and economic prosperity in Chandrakot Rural Municipality. Access to year-round irrigation helps farmers increase crop production, reduce dependence on unpredictable rainfall, and improve their livelihoods. By ensuring a dependable water supply for agricultural land, we can create new opportunities for farmers, strengthen local food production, and build a self-reliant rural economy.
We are committed to expanding and improving irrigation facilities across all eight wards of Chandrakot Rural Municipality. Our priorities will include constructing and maintaining irrigation canals, developing small-scale irrigation projects, restoring traditional water sources, and promoting modern technologies such as drip irrigation, sprinkler systems, and solar-powered water pumps wherever feasible. We will identify areas with limited irrigation access and prioritize practical, affordable, and sustainable projects that bring more agricultural land under year-round cultivation.
To ensure long-term agricultural prosperity, we will encourage rainwater harvesting, water-source conservation, and the proper management of local rivers, streams, and springs. Farmers will be supported through coordination with agricultural experts, government agencies, and community-based irrigation groups to promote water-efficient farming practices and high-value crops. Through transparent planning, community participation, and regular maintenance, we aim to ensure that every possible drop of water contributes to increased productivity, higher farmer incomes, local employment, and sustainable development throughout Chandrakot.
