About
The union territory of Goa Daman & Diu was liberated from Portuguese rule in the year 1961, the territory had about 7460 ha. of land under irrigation. Owing to the undulating topography of the district of Goa and consequent limited availability of cultivable area, need was felt for ensuring maximum production of food grains from optional available area. Realizing this need, the territory embarked upon an extensive program of irrigation.The Anjunem Irrigation Project is located on Costi nadi at Anjunem village in Sattari Taluka of North Goa District, a tributary of Valvanti River under Madei Basin.
