Describa los impactos in situ (los dos principales impactos por categoría).
Increased crop yield due to increased soil moisture and improved soil cover.
Improved water infiltration, development of contour banks, reduction of soil erosion,retention of soil and soil moisture as well as development of wind breaks.|
Income generated from increased production.Implementation was done immediately based on the decision making process which was internalised.
Describa los dos principales impactos fuera del lugar (por ejemplo, que no se registran en el lugar, pero sí en las zonas próximas).
Reduced downstream siltation, reduced wind transported sediments and reduced run-off water |
Impacto en la diversidad biológica y el cambio climático
Justifíquelo:
The grass does not compete with other crops, the seed is sterile and easy to contain and enhance biodiversity.|
Reduction of run-off water that may result in flooding,increased water infiltration,increased land productivity and improve soil moisture conditions for plants. |
Reduction of run-off water that may result in flooding, restoration Land productivity through monitoring success of soil and vegetation, use of micro-catchments to trap rainwater and improve soil moisture conditions for plants. |

Especifique:
It is long term management measure. The quantity of vetiver may be a problem if you need to do it in a bigger scale, you will need to buy grass or alternatively establish a nursery.|
