The research was undertaken in tank intensive districts of Tamil Nadu state, India. The claim over the benefits of a tank system was regulated among users by both legal and customary rights. Farmers attached higher social value over the tank irrigation system.Among various uses of tank, domestic, agricultural and LSD uses dominated the scenario.
