- Intervention effect Catchment runoff increased water storage by 55% for 1:1 plots.
- Intervention effect Catchment runoff increased water storage by 43% for 2:1 plots.
- Intervention effect Water harvesting increased yield per cropped area.
- Intervention effect Across trials, 1:1 treatment yield was 95% of control yield.
- Intervention effect Overall costs fell 18% with 1:1 water harvesting.
- Intervention effect Overall costs fell 31% with 2:1 water harvesting.
- Intervention effect Net benefits for 1:1 harvesting equalled or exceeded the control.
- Intervention effect Net benefits for 2:1 harvesting were 32% lower.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that 1:1 harvesting reduces risk while maintaining yields and benefits.
