Answer:

i. Dams ensure round the year water supply to the crop fields and helps to raise agricultural production.

ii. Generation of electricity.

iii. Control flooding which either stops or slows the amount of water in river.

Water from a dam is supplied to the people in towns and cities through pipelines. In this way, construction of dams ensures continuous water supply in the region.
