Answer

Three favourable conditions for digging an artesian well are:

  1. The aquifer should be saucer shaped (synclinal) so that the water moves downward in it under the action of gravity.
  2. There should be a layer of porous rock between two layers of non-porous rocks.
  3. The layers of porous rock should be exposed at the surface of the ground to enable the surface water to go in.
