Watershed management is often seen as a potential engine for agricultural growth and development in fragile and marginal rain-fed areas India. Enhanced livelihood opportunities for watershed community through investment in their assets and improvements in income and productivity are the leading objective of the programme, as mentioned in the guidelines for watershed management programme (WMP) in India. Watershed management may be defined as an integrated approach of greenery for a better environment. The management is essential for preceding the natural ecosystem in the catchment areas of rivers. The current research aims at developing an integrated water and soil conservation plan for Korayar watershed with in an adaptive management framework using geospatial tools. The soil and water conservation for watershed management process is among the requisites that need to be considered for the control of sedimentation and soil erosion. Other elements like climate, edaphic factors, land management, topography, and land cover, etc. will also determine the sedimentation and soil erosion process. Integrated Watershed Management approach is a worthy approach to manage the ecological, social and economic watershed development challenges in countries. The study chosen Korayar watershed area extent Coimbatore and Palakkad district, using remote sensing and GIS.To study and Mapping of the watershed through SOI with 1:50,000 scale, suitable Remote sensing data with available secondary information for soil conservatio n. : {"references": ["1.\tBurrough P.A.
