Rice farm as seen from near Salyansthan near Kirtipur

Typical newar style rice farming for productivity and soil conservation (by puddling). (尼泊尔)

nepali language :- Dhan ropai

描述

Typical Newari style rice farming ages long ,traditional and sustainable way of agriculture that is more focused on increasing rice production and maintaining field's productivity.

Aims / objectives: The main objective of the approach is to study how this indigenous method of rice cultivation is helping to increase rice yield and prevent the land from going barren. It is also centered to know about the involvement of various organizations like local government and INGOs in the process.

Methods: We followed the listed steps.
i)Site Visit
ii)interview with the local farmers
iii)question the labors
iv)literature review through books and intenet

Stages of implementation: i)land preparation
ii)crop preparation
iii)crop transplantation
iv)harvest

Role of stakeholders: Government:-More accessible and affordable and subsidies in budget
More initiative for the farmers in term of knowledge ,training and other technologies
Local administration :-Easy supply of machines,tools chemical fertilizer should be ensured

Other important information: Since it is an indigenous method for rice production,and were in practice for hundred of years, the recent racial mixture and introduction of newer method from terai has resulted into vast change in the methods and methodology of this newari method of typical rice production.

方法目标和有利环境

该方法的主要目的/目标
The Approach focused mainly on other activities than SLM (Productivity of rice crops)

To study the typical approach of rice farming and learn about the problems it is currently suffering.

The SLM Approach addressed the following problems: Low agriculture production due to change in monsoon pattern,decremented soil fertility due to excavation for brick industries and lack of modern techniques and methods to cope the problems.
推动实施本办法所应用技术的条件
阻碍实施本办法所应用技术的条件
  • 社会/文化/宗教规范和价值观: Due to massive introduction of new methods of farming, the typical newari method has been altered. This has resulted into loss of expertise and indigenous knowledge that may cause some serious irreversible loss in Nepalese talenet. Treatment through the SLM Approach: Government or other institutions should document the newari method of agriculture for future application.
  • 财务资源和服务的可用性/可得性: Farmers have difficulties to arrange fund in off season. Also sometime they need to burrow money at heavy interest. Treatment through the SLM Approach: Government can provide interest free loan to farmers.
  • 法律框架(土地使用权、土地和水使用权): Conflicts among locals on resources like water due to extremely limited supply. Treatment through the SLM Approach: mutual cooperation and advance level of engineering to design water supply for irrigation in the field The existing land ownership, land use rights / water rights hindered a little the approach implementation Community ownership meant no hindrance for development.
  • 了解SLM,获得技术支持: some efficient and new technology (genetically modified crop) and lack of advance equipment for agriculture Treatment through the SLM Approach: Administration and local authority should address this and inform farmers about the agricultural advancement through Agricultural Ministry.
  • 工作量、人力资源可用性: Since agriculture is tedious job, farmers are always lacking manpower to help themselves. Sometimes they are forced to hire expensive workers. Treatment through the SLM Approach: Government and other institutions should help farmer to get technologies that can help them to decrease their work load.
  • 其他: Other constraints may include lack of younger generations interest in farming. Treatment through the SLM Approach: Better education in schools and establishment of agricultural universities may increase their interest.

该方法涉及的利益相关者及其职责
该方法涉及哪些利益相关者/执行机构? 指定利益相关者 说明利益相关者的角色
当地土地使用者/当地社区 Land owners in Kirtipur, Kathmandu Men are adopting other occupations like moving to middle east or other private job because of better and continuous income and profit. While younger generations are moving abroad for the similar reason. So, the female are mostly limited and focused in the cultivation of the crop. Both male and female is 20s and above 50s who are mostly economically disadvantaged.

Specially promoted by organic business enterprise for exporting them as a better product.
计划
Everything is planned by the local community or the land owner.
实施
This method is still used by newari community of Nepal.
监测/评估
Negative impact from the fertilizer ,the need of organic food production is taking good speed for the better world.for this FAO and other local people are showing their activeness .
Research
For this approach very few research been done and need immediate documentation.
流程图

The flowchart shows the hierarchy of this approach. This methodology of rice production was handed over generation over generation. the newer generation learn from the older people from their community.

结论和吸取的教训

长处: 土地使用者的观点
  • 1.It is easy method to apply and it increase the soil fertility rate .
    2. good quality of rice by the use of puddling process and organic fertilizer. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: 1. Repair the soil infertility.
    )
长处: 编制者或其他关键资源人员的观点
  • 1. It is traditional ,unique and indigenous technique.
    2.Its been good at yielding more productivity.
    3. It is helping soil from getting barren. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: 1.More facilities,subsidies,loan,etc for farmers.
    2.Introduction of innovative and new technologies.
    3.Teaching farmers the new and advanced knowledge.)
弱点/缺点/风险: 土地使用者的观点如何克服
  • 1.Less effective due to lack of equipment and alternative backup plan.
    1. More research ,advise center for agriculture development should be provide by by the top level.
弱点/缺点/风险: 编制者或其他关键资源人员的观点如何克服
  • 1. It cannot be the ultimate way of addressing of per capita income.
    2. Many people are showing less interest.
    3.It results in relatively less earning and thus very less respected. 1.Change in attitude farming among people.
    2.More fund for the research should be allocated.
