Краткое описание Технологии

The best practice is addressed how to generate sustainable livelihoods in the Mongolian herder economy. Sustainable rural livelihoods depend on the sustainability
of economic, social, environmental and institutional factors and investigates whether technical solutions exist to reduce pasture degradation and desertification, such as
restoring proper seasonal movements, resting and other improvements to pastures, can make underused pastureland available via investments in roads and water points,
haymaking and fencing, etc. These techniques and practices are described in detail, and many are shown to contribute positively to pasture health and productivity.|

Краткое описание природной окружающей среды в месте применения

The topography of Mongolia consists mainly of a plateau with the elevation ranging from 914 and 1524 m
(about 3000 and 5000 ft) broken by mountain ranges in the north and west. The Altai Mountains in the southwest rise to heights above 4267 m (14,000 ft). The Gobi covers a wide arid tract in the central and southeastern areas. The most important rivers are the Selenge Mörön and its tributary, the Orhon Gol, in the north. Large lakes include the Har Us, Hyargas, Uvs, and Khovsgol.|
Soil in Mongolia has been divided into following:
1. Black soil is found in Khangai, Khentii, Khovsgol provinces, Mongol Altai and Ih Hyangan Mountain
ranges, and the in the Orhon, Selenge, Onon and Ulz river valleys which are in the forest steppe region.
2. Brown soil is in the forest steppe and steppe region|
The 9 aimags located in different regions of Mongolia. The climate in these aimags is continental climate with long, cold winters and short summers, during which most precipitation falls. The country averages 257 cloudless days a year, and it is usually at the center of a region of high atmospheric pressure. Precipitation is highest in the north, which averages 20 to 35 centimeters per year, and lowest in the south, which
receives 10 to 20 centimeters.|

Преобладающие социально-экономические условия населения, проживающего в месте применения и/или в окрестностях

Mongolian Land Law adopted in 2002 and Constitution (1992) recognises the state ownership of pastures, forests, and subsoil and water resources, thus making private ownership of these resources impossible.The Law on Land provides rights for ownership, possession, use and limited use. Possession rights may be held by citizens, economic entities and organizations for up to 60 years, with the right to extension for additional
periods of 40 years.|
Main income source is livestock breeding and small crop and vegetable growing
Average income in these aimags is $200-250 per person

На основании какого критерия и/или показателя (не относящихся к Стратегии) предложенная практика и соответствующая технология считается передовой?

The pasture land use is one of the challenging issues in Mongolia. The approach could play very important role for proper use of pasture land in Mongolia. That's why the approach considered as the best.

Основные проблемы, которые позволяет решить передовая практика

The herdsman's understanding about the importance of the use of such collective actions.

Укажите конкретные проблемы деградации земель, которые решаются благодаря применению передовой практики

The transition to the market economy led to a sharp rise in the number of herders, as well as animals such as goats, sheep, horses, camels and the cattle. It leads to overgrazing and Land degradation. The traditional methods to use the pastureland sustainably had lost during the transition period. This is the problems addressed by the practice.|

Укажите цели передовой практики

1. To assist the herder groups in their establishment and further growing
2. To assist local administrations to provide services to the herder groups.

Краткое описание и основные деятельность по каждой цели

Activities are mostly undertaken by Pasture-User Groups with support from their local governments. The project assisted to the local Governments for providing the services.
The project "Green gold" assisted the herders in the areas of the project. During the project implementing period there were established 189 pasture user groups.
