Thanks for the opportunity to learn from you.

I would like to know procedure for the  following work:

My village (Jameelapet) Mdl: Bibinagar, Dt: Nalgonda, Andhra Pradesh is having very low yield of ground water. Most of the farming is done by bore well irrigation. Since power supply is staggered, it has become difficult to divert the water properly to the needy fields. Hence we propose to build water storage tanks at the highest points of our field on the ground level and fill it with the bore well source (water available in my bore well).  We may use the stored water very judicially according to the need.

What I need to Know is....

------We would like to know the kind of storage tanks we should build. They should be constructed economically and should store maximum capacity of water.

------ Is it advisable to use drip irrigation or open canal system from the tanks.

------- My basic crop is mango and other fruit bearing trees of 5 yrs old.

thanking you and look forward for an advise in this regard,
