What is the benefit of rain water storage? Correct Answer Recharging ground water level

Recharging ground water level is the benefit of rain water storage. Rain water storage is also known as rain water harvesting. The water when stored in tanks dug in ground surface seeps through the pores and recharges ground water level.
