最佳实践解决的主要问题

Continuous uncontrolled burning of the area and destruction of the forest cover as well as biological diversity

概述最佳实践解决的具体土地退化问题

Removal of the natural forest cover though wild fires.

具体说明最佳实践的目标

Stop the uncontrolled removal of forest cover though wild fires and unintentional fires caused by farmers that would use the slash and burn method of land clearing.

按目标对主要活动进行简要的描述

Curtain the wild fires leading to the destruction of the natural forest cover of the body ponds area.

本技术的简要说明和技术规范

use of fire resistant plants to reforest the area. Use of small motorized equipment for land clearing instead of the slash and burn method

描述现场影响（按类别划分的两类主要影响）

The production from the farms have increased
The farming conditions have improved
The ecosystems in the location are now recovering
There has been better financial potential for the farmers
There is potential to reintroduce species that have been destroyed
The forest cover can now recover effectively.

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）

Persons who depend on these farmers for supplies are not getting more food supplies on a regular basis
The potential impacts on the overall watershed have been great. The reefs have not benefited as the runoff from the ridge that forms part of this area no longer causes a great deal of sedimentation to enter the bay.

对生物多样性和气候变化的影响

解释原因:

The number of trees and forest cover has increased as there has been a reduction in the amount of forest cover lost to these wild fires.
with the reduction in the number of areas catching fire, the amount of biodiversity lost due to these fires has decreased.|
New treas are planted in the areas that were burnt out.

您能否确定目前最佳实践/技术成功的三个主要条件？

partial funding for this was provided by outside sources and thus made it possible for the success achieved.
The government had a new initiative to pass on the necessary information to the community in an effort to help them understand the need to protect the area and change their farming methods. This is replicable in other areas
The community had a desire to change their farming approaches due to the destruction that was being caused. This is linked to the local context of where the area is located.
