Tejaban
Tejaban is a small village in Balochistan province of Pakistan. It is 70km from Turbat, near a river  known as the Kech River.its a fake  Agricultural activities in Tejaban are possible due to water from the Kech. But the river results in many problems as well. Lack of safe ways to control the water results dangerous consequences in heavy rain seasons as water enters into agricultural lands and destroys the crops. The word Tejaban means "a lot of water". Tejaban is surrounded by mountains and rivers and it is between the two villages of Hironk and Hoshab. Agricultural activities 

Agriculture is the backbone of Tejaban; maximum earning is directly or indirectly connected with agriculture. Water for agriculture is allocated through the Karez System. Some of the agricultural lands are owner-cultivated while others are given to 2nd parties on shared basis. The share of owner is 2/3 while the share of cultivator remains 1/3. Various crops are cultivated 

Various crops are cultivated in Tejaban. The list of crops being cultivated is long but some popular crops are rice, date, bakla, wheat, and onion. All these crops are produced in bulk quantities but the specialty of Tejaban are dates. The cultivation of wheat is totally dependent on rains as it is cultivated in bands (Bands are agricultural lands which are not connected to Karez system and watering of these lands is done directly from river). In the absence of rains, the level of the water becomes very low and sometimes is zero. So much of the time the farmers are unable to cultivate wheat. Processing of dates 

Date season (from May to August) is very much enjoyed, especially by the children as it is their vocations. People from many areas come to Tejaban for Aamin (the process of collecting dates is called Aamin). They live in temporary camps and return to their homelands as soon as date season comes to an end. People of Tejaban are very hospitable. They welcome people coming from various areas for Aamin (date season). Many kinds of dates are produced including Begam-jangi, Haleeni, Mozzati, Rogheni, Peeshna, Shakari, Gog-na, Aap e dandan, Kongo, and Chapshok. The best date is Begam-Jangi as it is very tasty and can be store for a long period. These dates are sold in big markets. Main markets are Karachi and Quetta. These dates could be made better, if facilities are provided to the farmers. A date processing unit is much needed in these areas. Karez System 

In Tejaban agricultural water is  accomplished through the Karez System. Karez is a local system in which a large number of wells are interconnected to collect and share water. Water flows in the form of channels, which is then used for farming. The best thing about this system is that it saves energy. No fuel is used for collecting water, unlike tube-wells. The main Karez (Kahn) are Peerin Kahn, Gul Mohd e Kahn, Chammagan, Jumma kahn, Peer Mohd Kahn, Sabzal e Kahn and Meer e Khan. The oldest one is Peerin kahn as its name suggests. (Peerin means the oldest.) At one time the water was divided among the former  on the basis of Taas (a type of bowl having a hole in the bottom). Taas was put into water and the time for one  getting water changed as the Taas filled up. But now watches replaced that system. People of Tejaban 
Both men and women participate in community maintenance projects and in work to earn money. Culture
