During the drought we put the water in a pond then place a log in front of pond so water will not leave
During flood season we put these logs on the sides of the river so the water wont flood the crops.
We used a inclined plane and buckets.

We built a series of dams and we have a place to store water so what this does is it lets us block out some water durring floods and it lets us store water for drought.
my group made two to three dams that we can move up and down so there is not that much pressure or water flowing so floods don't happen a lot.

For a drought season we made a pool to store water. For flooding we made a gate on each side of the river. For transportation of water we left a small space so the water could reach the field. Antaneia F 3/4 BDF
