2. Description of the SLM Technology

2.1 Short description of the Technology

Definition of the Technology:

Освоение каменистых земель под орошаемое садоводство.

2.2 Detailed description of the Technology

Description:

Сильно каменистый конус выноса до внедрения технологии использовался как низкопродуктивное пастбище. На участке внедрения технологии проведена камнеуборка. Камни и глыбы использовались для строительства ограждения (забора) вокруг участка. Часть камней складировалась в кучи на территории участка. Вдоль верхней границы участка построен оросительный канал. Из него на территорию участка, по горизонтали мезорельефа, проведены оросительные арыки. Планировка поверхности участка не проводилась из за сильной каменистости. Деревъя абрикоса посажены вдоль оросительных арыков. Междурядьях сада возделываются многолетние травы -эспарцет, люцерна. Камни убранные с площади участка использовались для строительство забора вокруг участка. Забор необходим для того, чтобы предотвратить проникновения на территорию сада мелко и крупно рогатого скота.

Purpose of the Technology: Цель технологии, повышение продуктивности сильно каменистых, склоновых земель конуса выноса с применением орошения и возделыванием комбинированных культур-абрикосового сада и многолетних трав.

Establishment / maintenance activities and inputs: Камне уборка на участке, строительство ограждения, строительство оросительного канала, проведение оросительных арыков по площади участка, посадка деревьев, вспашка междурядье и посев многолетних трав.

Natural / human environment: Участок расположен в аридной зоне на сильно каменистой почве конуса выноса, на левом берегу реки Ванч. До освоения этих земел поверхность почвы на 60% было покрыта камнями. Растительность была представлена эфемерами, имеющие короткий период вегетации. Эти земли использовались под летние низкопродуктивные выпаса.
