2.1 Breve descripción del Enfoque

Integrated watershed management is implementation of SWC measures, forage development and crop production activitiesthrough increasing production and productivity per unit area of land on suistainable manner.

2.2 Descripción detallada del Enfoque MST

Descripción detallada del Enfoque MST:

Aims / objectives: Overall purpose of the approach is to attain food security at household level and then contribute for the anticipated national goals. Specifically the objectives are improving food security of targeted area land users by capacitating community members with incentive support application of SWC activities. Promoting and implementing integrated watershed management practice promote catchment based natural resources management and enhance forage development from matreials used for bund stablization.

Methods: Methods of participatory planning and implementation approach is using local institutions (groups), local leaders community development committee) and existing infrastructure/facilities.

Stages of implementation: Monitoring and evaluation.

Role of stakeholders: SOS Sahel--financinig are evaluating the programmee, Bureau of agriculture and rural development--follow up, monitoring and evaluation, Office of agricultue and rural development--coordinating, planning, and implimenting the project activities with the community and Community/land users--they do the actual implementation phase and evaluation the activities.

6.4 Fortalezas/ ventajas del Enfoque

Fuerzas/ ventajas/ oportunidades desde la perspectiva del usuario de la tierra
IWM approach very important for the farmer by prodiving basic skill in all activities (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Thraining the farmers)
The introduced Desho grass become cash source by selling the planting material & grass (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: By creating awareness to all farmers.)
Hand tool provision help them in facilitating working condition (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: By circulating 30% down payment share.)
Sheep credition provision (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: with 10% insurance down payment and transfer to first lamb to the next poor.)

Fuerzas/ ventajas/ oportunidades desde la perspectiva del compilador o de otra persona de referencia clave
Desho grass introjduction is a new technology which has multipurpose use. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Extension work should be strong until they know & see the advantage & Adopt.)
Integrate all the agricultural and natural resource management activities in the catchment. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Awareness creation work has to be following in a continous way)
Introduction of Desho grass become income generating means by selling & forage source. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: By introducing the grass to new areas & supply planting material of the grass for the first time to the resource poors.)

6.5 Debilidades/ desventajas del Enfoque y formas de sobreponerse a ellos

Debilidades/ desventajas/ riesgos desde la perspectiva del usuario de la tierra	¿Cómo sobreponerse a ellas?
other.	Doing as stated on the agreement & credit contruct.
Failure of payment of 10% insurance and acting accoringly.	enforcing to pay the stack 10% of insurance.
Mis use of down payment by CDC and Development Agent	close follow and facilitating the payment procedure for the debted CDC.

Debilidades/ desventajas/ riesgos desde la perspectiva del compilador o de otra persona de referencia clave	¿Cómo sobreponerse a ellas?
Lack of close follow up of the activities may stak or hindered over all activities.	Office of Agriculture & Natural Resource should work hard extension to sustain the approach & function normally.
failure of supply of desho grass planting material for those who start SWC activities for the first time.	These could be solved by coordinating NGOs other project to help desho grass purchasing
using open access grazing of farmland destroy the grass & constructed bund.	using controlled grassing &/or stall feeding
