The top panel shows boundary bunds in hilly, stony, red soil areas. Stones are cleared from the field to
build bunds. Excess runoff drains through the stone bunds. The middle panel displays earthen
boundary bunds with field-to-field runoff disposal through stone waste weirs. These are found in
medium to high rainfall red soil areas and low to medium black soil areas. In the bottom panel, high
rainfall conditions require that excess water be drained through boundary waterways, which eventually
lead to natural streams.
