Access to Water

Tevel provides new water sources, such as a reservoir and boreholes, facilitate year-round farming. Coupled with collective input purchasing, market optimization, and training initiatives, these resources empower small-scale farmers, fostering increased agricultural productivity and income.

Lack of water and irrigation infrastructure is one of the major barriers to small-scale farmers’ agricultural production. To address this, Tevel has so far drilled 14 commercial boreholes and several additional boreholes for drinking water and animal troughs, and has irrigated hundreds of hectares of village farmland—including through the installation of drip-irrigation systems.
