×2.7 Type of Approach
- traditional/ indigenous
2.8 Main aims/ objectives of the Approach
The Approach focused mainly on other activities than SLM (water distribution, irrigation channel maintenance)
Good distribution of irrigation water, good condition of irrigation channel and paddy field terrace, high production & income.
The SLM Approach addressed the following problems: Distribution of irrigation water in justice, irrigation channel in good condition, environment of paddy field terrace in good condition.
2.9 Conditions enabling or hindering implementation of the Technology/ Technologies applied under the Approach
availability/ access to financial resources and services
- hindering
high production cost
Treatment through the SLM Approach: subsidy
legal framework (land tenure, land and water use rights)
- enabling
The existing land ownership, land use rights / water rights moderately helped the approach implementation
