**3. Irrigation trends, potential and risks**

The crop yield is usually dependent over the ground water as it is responsible for strengthening and radiating the cropping system which has an upper hand

over household food security and income of Farmers In larger parts of Asia, North Africa and Middle East locations depends over Groundwater as it has boosted agricultural production in an enhanced manner. Due to the vast usage of land and private wells in an unregistered condition, the ground water usage has become unsustainable leading to a serious threat in rural and urban areas in the forms of pollution and over exploitation of resources that has an impact over socio economic benefits.

Due to the risk caused under the exploitation of ground water has lead to the need of developing Groundwater development research centers and policies that quantify both the potential and the risks, pooled with innovative management and policy solutions which can help guide future reliable and flexible groundwater use.
