Hello,
My farm is in north Konkan - Raigad district. The soil is lateritic. It is on a plateau, but at the base of a 40m high ridge which forms the catchment area.
Eventually, I intend to dig an openwell, but due to some restrictions initially I decided on a borewell. The question is, how far should my borewell be from the proposed openwell so that it does not affect the inflows into the well. The openwell spot gets inflows from all directions (N, E, W, S) and the borewell is a little upstream on one of the sides of the openwell.
Do you think a distance of 200m is sufficient buffer between the 2 wells?
Looking forward to your advice.
Thanks.
