QUESTION
Need to know the feasibility of recharging borewell to increase yield in Kolar, Karnataka

I am from Kolar, Karnataka. A borewell of 1100 ft was dug in 2001 with a yield of 1 1/2
inches. Currently it has gone down to 1/2 inch. If I recharge borewell via the same well
does it lead to an increase in yield?

Details are as follows:

bore well depth: 1100 ft

casing: 120ft

1st water zone at : 720 ft (below this we didnt get any water source)

motor n pump: 17 hp, 30 stages

It will pump 2' inches of water for 1 minute and 2 minutes will be a gap(no water).

Kindly contribute to the discussion..
