Devarayapuram and surrounding villages situated at the foot of Western Ghats, about 20 km west of Coimbatore is mainly depending upon Agriculture. Dry crop farming is the only source for the people in these areas, as there is no perennial water source. The Noyyal River which flows eastwards from the Western Ghats, feeds the lands on the southern banks and a small area on the upper reaches. The geological formation of this area also does not permit this river to feed the lands between foot of perumalmudi hills and the north bank of the river. The people in these areas are mainly depending upon the dry farm cultivation only and a farmer has gone in to tap the ground water vigorously now a days. The ground water table which was at 100 feet below ground level in the year 1985 has gone down to 500 feet this year. The farming activities have considerably reduced due to the above reasons and the farm labourers are forced to go in for search of jobs in the nearby town Coimbatore, some unskilled works for merge wages. Unless a suitable solution is found for this, the people may find it difficult to earn their livelihood in the near future, and the entire population may have to go out in search of jobs in other places. The people in these areas are known for their hardworking and farming activities. Since water source is not available in this area, the people are completely depending only on ground water, and that too has gone down in the recent years and may vanish in near future. Hence a suitable arrangement to improve the ground water in these areas is the need of the people.
