Irrigation Well Final Report
Terra teamed with the rural community of Capiri to develop irrigation water that will make drastic improvements to agriculture production. The project consisted of a 250-foot well, storage pond, distribution network, erosion control, and education. Now, instead of relying on unpredictable rain and a contaminated river, the 480 residents will have constant water and will see immediate benefits in income and health. -
Highlights
TERRA completed a potable water system in September, 2007. Now, 110 residents have potable water for the first time.
