最佳实践的简短描述

GBS in consultation of the local village communities conceptualised a plan of project for developing the wasteland near village Todaladi (later named as Gandhivan) in order to address the key problems of the people. The community people were agreed upon the proposal and assured of all kinds of their support for successfull implementation of the project. Then a Project Implementation and Monitoring Committee (PIMC)was formed involving all the key stakeholders, particularly the women and youth volunteers. The activities carried out under the project included soil and moisture conservation, plugging the gullies and ravines, harvesting the rain water, planting trees, stabilizing sand dunes, regenerating the indigenous plant species etc.|

指定地点内的自然环境简介。

There were sand dunes only in the far away areas and not a single green leaf could be seen around. The project land was completely undulated with sand dunes, ravines and deep gullies. There was no vegetation cover over the neighboring hills.|
The area is on the foothills of the Aravalli ranges where there had been a thick forest a few decades ago, which has been completely denuded during last couple of decades in want of fuel wood and the hills have completely been deforested.|
Partly sandy and partly loamy

居住在该地点及/或附近居民的普遍社会经济状况

Most of the people have very small land hordings and many are landless labourer. Though they have ownership over these small pieces of land, but sinse they don't have any source of irrigation, they can't get good crops and only depend on the monsoon, which is very uncertain and scattered in the area.|
The resourceless poor people of backward castes and classes are residing in the neighboring villages, who solely depend on the forests for fuel wood to coock food and no other alternative is availlable. |
As most of the community people are marginal farmers or land less labourers, their main source of income is cattle rearing and working on the frams of big farmers. Therefore, many of them migrate to big cities in search of jobs when there is no farming season.|

根据哪些标准和/或指标（与战略无关），在确定建议的实践和相应的技术是否被认为是“最佳”时，应该基于哪些标准和/或指标（与战略无关）？

As the project mentiioned here solved successfully the problem of fuel, fodder and potable water of the people of the neighboring 10 villages through developing the 'wasteland', which was generally known as barren, infertile and quite useless. Further, it strengthened the biodiversity of the area by conserving the flora and fauna and changed the ecological scenerio. The 'waste' land of a time has been transformed into the 'best'land of today with a thick forest of over one hudred thousand plants of various species.|

概述最佳实践解决的具体土地退化问题

As the rain water flowing from the neighboring hills was eroding the soil of the flanking area, GBS built 2 check dams to harvest it and plugged over 30 deep gullies by erecting bunds and mulching them with grasses and bushes. It not only checked the soil erosion and land degradation, but conserved sufficient water and moisture, which helped in nurturing more and more trees as garner of good quality fodder and enough fuel wood for the community people.|

具体说明最佳实践的目标

The main objective of said best practice was to solve the problem of fuel, fodder and potable water of the poor people of backward catses and classes of 10 villages of the area.|

按目标对主要活动进行简要的描述

Plugged 30 deep gullies with erecting bunds and mulching them with grasses and bushes etc. to check the soil erosion and land degradation.
Stabilized 26 sand dunes through plnting trees on furrows, contours, bench terraces etc.|
Plated 80,000 trees of various spoecies in consultation with the local community people|
Hravested the rain water by building 2 check dams on the foot hills to conserve the water flowing from te hills.

本技术的简要说明和技术规范

It was decided under the best practioce of the project that no chemical fertilizers and pesticides will be used and it was follwed throughout the implementation of the project. Rather organic manure and herbal pesticides were used. The species of the plants were selected on the basis of their adaptabilities. The tools and implements were used locally made and availlable. The techniques for raising saplings in the nursery, planting trees, building check dams, plugging gullies and satbilizing sand dunes etc. were planned and used in consultation with the community leaders which were based on the indigenous technology and past practices of the villages|
Locally availlable bulding materials i.e. stones, plant species i.e. grasses and bushes, locally availlable tools and equipments etc. were used in the project. |

描述现场影响（按类别划分的两类主要影响）

The area of barren sand dunes of a time has been transformed into a thick forest today, biodiversity strengthened and flora and fauna conserved.|
Production of the check dams, tree species planted, gullies plugged and sand dunes stbilized was more than expected benefits|
Over 2,000 households of villages of the area need not to spend money and labour on buying fuel and fodder. |
The over all ecology of the area has been enriched
None
Rain water harvested and soil erosion and land degradation checked has brought out tremendous results.
The money being spent in fetching water from far away wells for their cattle could be saved.

描述两个主要的场外影响（即不是发生在现场，而是发生在周围区域）

The practice of cattle rearing has increased, which was stopped during last couple of years|
Migration of the youth of the area has been checked.

对生物多样性和气候变化的影响

解释原因:

The level of underground water has increased by 2 to 5 meters in the area and carbon emmission has decreased extensively (though it has yet to be measured).
The project has increased in the generation of the wild animals and birds and number of plant species of medicinal and other values. The extensive vegetation cover over the sand dunes and flanking area has changed the scenerio.
More and more community people in the rural areas have been inspired to plant trees and harvest the rain water.

是

具体说明:

Cost to be incurred on fuel and fodder of the village communities could be saved widely

您能否确定目前最佳实践/技术成功的三个主要条件？

It can be replicated any where else with some changes due to the land and weather conditions etc.
It motivated the local farmers and volunteers to adopt the activities of the project into their own fields, particularly the tree plantation, practice of gully plugging for checking soil erosion and land degradation.|
The federal and state Government and many private institutions in India and other countries including a delegation of SAARC countries, that visited the best practice, have appreciated the project and conferred GBS with many awards. |
