Structures for Water Supply

This topic addresses the critical agricultural issue of water sourcing and management. Learners will explore various water supply sources (springs, rivers, boreholes, dams) and the structures used to access and store water on a farm (wells, weirs, reservoirs). The unit covers the maintenance and repair of these systems and investigates causes and prevention of water pollution. This knowledge is essential for sustainable farm planning and resilience against drought, a key concern in Zambia. It is important for ECZ exam questions on farm infrastructure, resource management, and ensuring water security for crops and livestock.
