Roofs, sheds and shaded storage can turn seasonal rain into water you can use later.
Rain falls in short periods; crops and animals need water all year. Capturing roof runoff in clean storage can help bridge the gap.
- Keep gutters and first-flush arrangements clean.
- Cover storage to keep out light, leaves and animals.
- Place storage on a firm, level base.
- Use stored water for the purposes it is suitable for; treat it before drinking.
