It also changes the social aspects of families, such as their health, schooling, sanitation, and so on. However, there are times when unknown problems, like climate change, make it challenging for the economy to grow and for society and the country as a whole to progress. That's why people in rural areas come up with different ways to address and improve their social problems. Most of the homes in the semi-arid hilly area depend on pond water to endure changes in the weather. Changes in the weather are making it challenging for the farm sector and other linked ways of making a living. This study looks at how traditional methods of collecting water can help improve the social and economic situations of rural families in the Mayurbhanj district. This study also looks at how community tanks can help improve agricultural production. For example, this is especially true because there aren't enough irrigation systems, and most farms count on rain to grow their crops. Having a good plan for dealing with climate change is very important for making sure that farming areas can continue to make a living.
