最佳实践的简短描述

In eastern part of India agriculture is rain fed and the prevailing livelihood pattern is characterized by seasonal employment and consequent seasonal migration to urban area in search of employment. The dwindling forest resources have jeopardized agriculture and livestock productivity due to shrinking of water resource and poor fuel and fodder supply. The fragmented, un-irrigated and monocropped agriculture holdings and low productive livestock population do not offer adequate opportunity for their livelihood. The WADI approach which literally means small orchard is a model adopted by NABARD – GVT in Bandwan block of Purulia district. The WADI consisted of mango & cashew as fruit crop with forestry species on the periphery of land holdings. While the fruit plants paved the way for income generation in five years the forestry species provide a wind break and also act as a shelter belt besides meeting the fuel, fodder and small timbers needs of the participants of the family. It also helps in reducing the pressure on existing forests. It has ensured the productive utilization of barren /unutilized land. It has increased vegetative cover through intercropping in the WADI which acts as additional income of the families in the project villages.|

指定地点内的自然环境简介。

The block is characterized by undulated topography as a result nearly 50% of the rainfall flows away as runoff. The district is covered by mostly residual soil formed by weathering of bed rocks
Bandwan block in Purulia lies between 22.60 degrees and 23.50 degrees north latitudes and 85.75 degrees and 86.65 degrees east longitudes. The geographical area of the district is 6259 km². Purulia is the westernmost district of West Bengal with an all-India significance because of its tropical location, its shape as well as function like a funnel. |
Average annual rainfall varies between 1100 and 1500 mm. South west monsoon is the principal source of rainfall in the district. The relative humidity is high in monsoon season, being 75% to 85%. But in hot summer it comes down to 25% to 35%. Temperature varies over a wide range from 7 degrees Celsius in winter to 46.8 degrees Celsius in the summer. Record highest temperature is 54 degrees.|

居住在该地点及/或附近居民的普遍社会经济状况

Agriculture & agricultural labour is the primary source of Livelihoods for tribal people.
Land ownership is generally in the name of male members. Though in a very few cases, women have the ownership of the land, but they have no power to sell the land independently. In most of the cases the decision making power are with male member, but in some of the cases women’s view are also taken into consideration.|
The level of income of the people living in the location is very poor and variations are found due to distress situations like failure of crops, drought, etc. People usually migrate to other parts of the country in search of livelihood and adopt different coping mechanisms to secure cash and food throughout the year. |

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）？

Development of horticultural land use as soil conservation measure was adopted as covering the barren soil and minimizing soil erosion due to wind & rain thus conserving soil in the project area. In this system mixed horticultural crops including perennial fruit plants, vegetable crops, tuber crops were planted in 400 hectares to conserve the soil and maintain greener environment. It not only addresses the sustainable land management but also conserves the ecology of the area and enhances biodiversity per unit area. |

最佳实践解决的主要问题

                                                           1. Productive utilization of wasteland through agri-horticulture model.
                                                           2. Conservation of soil through development of horticulture land use.
3. Water conservation through development of small water retention structures.
4.  Reduction of pressure on existing forest.
                                                   

概述最佳实践解决的具体土地退化问题

The soil topography being not suitable for agriculture practices is best conserved through Wadi concept wherein the planting of trees will address soil conservation and soil moisture retention along with floor management with leafy vegetable crops. This in long run will make the barren wasteland into productive crop fields.

具体说明最佳实践的目标

1. Better use of unproductive land
2. Improvement of soil health
3. Water Resource Development & Soil & Water Conservation

按目标对主要活动进行简要的描述

Better use of unproductive land
1. 1000 small orchards of one acre of land in identified tribal farmers of project area were developed. Keeping in view the soil type and the climate of the project area following species has been identified for plantation:-
Fruits Plant : Mango and Cashew
Timber
Water Resource Development & Soil & Water Conservation
1. Renovation & development of water bodies, water harvesting structure like well, check dams etc.
2. Boarder forestry plantation in the periphery of WADI undertaken with a view to prevent soil as well as wind erosion.
Improvement of soil health
1.  The green cover improves the soil health through addition of organic matter into the soil.
2.  The conservation of soil moisture improves its availability to the vegetative cover.

本技术的简要说明和技术规范

Within the context of improving land and water productivity, wadi is pivoted around a hardy fruit tree species that has potential post-harvest processing and marketing linkages.
The WADI concept was introduced to prevent migration of the community and to utilize the local resources to its fullest extent. It covers the issues of natural resource management like conservation of soil, water & forest resources. It addresses the economic upliftment of the community through fruit plants & intercropping.|
Care is taken to plant adequate number of fruit plants and forest trees as per the species recommended. Also, the per hactare plantation addresses, to some extent, the issues of tree outside forest (ToF) under forestry guidelines. It also acts as a source of carbon sequestration.|

Farmers in the vicinity of the project area are also adopting same technologies and developing mini orchards with improved agri and silviculture system in their backyard space.  

对生物多样性和气候变化的影响

解释原因:

The planting of horticultural trees and forest trees species act as a sink of carbon thus resolving the air pollution cause due to industrialization process in global perspective. The green cover also acts as soil binder and a reason for precipitation.
