The existence of some shallow wells within the community is traceable to the delineated near surface thick clay formation which preserves peculating surface water.
These handdug wells have good quantity of water but it is not fit for domestic and industrial use without further purification
processes. Although water seems to be everywhere for most parts of the year in Edjekota, prolific aquifer is within
32 – 50 metres with appreciable loose sand deposits beneath which implies that the aquifer is unconfined.
