","pub","s2.14","","","public","research_report",,,,,"The study assessed the performance of  watershed programs by employing meta  analysis. Meta analysis is a statistical procedure that integrates and upscales numerous spatially  and temporally distributed combinable micro-level  studies to distil logical macro-level policy   inferences. The inferences drawn, based on   meta analysis, are often more objective and   authentic. Based on an exhaustive review of  311 case studies on watershed programs in  India, the study attempted to document  efficiency, equity and sustainability benefits. It was noted that the mean benefit-cost ratio of a  watershed program in the country was quite modest at 2.14. The internal rate of return was 22 percent, which is comparable with many rural  developmental programs. The watershed
programs generated enormous employment
opportunities, augmented irrigated area and
 program was at its best in areas that targeted
cropping intensity and conserved soil and water
resources. The performance of the watershed
 the low and medium income groups, which was
jointly implemented by the state and central
government, and where there was effective
people's participation and a rainfall ranging
between 700–1,000 mm. The study concluded that the watershed program is silently
