最佳实践的简短描述

The rehabilitation and co-management of degraded bamboo forest areas offers many opportunities for recovering provisioning services of the local ecosystem thus adding to sustained livelihood security and for securing supporting services such as better soil formation. Through this output, the project plans to enhance the role of bamboo forest areas in maintaining (a) connectivity between relatively undisturbed forest tracts that provide refuge for globally significant biodiversity and (b) the livelihood system of about 789 families in the five project districts. The project will work with the tribal/ rural landless and marginal land holding families who have significant dependency on the surrounding forest areas for socio-economic needs. The aim is to demonstrate a model for addressing poverty alleviation and environmental protection by engaging needy families in sustainable management of degraded bamboo areas found in forest lands in and around their villages, and sustainable harvest of the resource.
Each pro-poor family will be allocated approximately 20 hectares of degraded bamboo forest area in and around their villages for rehabilitation and sustainable co-management, targeting 5 hectares per year over the time frame of the project. This amounts to coverage of approximately 14,500 hectares.
The families are provided with financial and technical assistance for sustainable management of degraded bamboo areas, as well as for sustainable harvesting. These families will benefit in the short-term from an additional source of income for rehabilitation services rendered, broadening the income base of these families. At present each family on a monthly basis are paid INR 2500/- which amounts to INR 30000 annually as an additional income for the households. Over the long term, sustainable co-management practices undertaken by the families may regenerate the local bamboo forest resources creating opportunities for families to access the resource for income generation, as per the existing JFM resolution and government order of Madhya Pradesh. This will help diversify sources of livelihood in the short and long term, in turn, having a beneficial regional impact by reducing distress migration under socio-economic duress.
Target families will develop their skills for managing and protecting degraded bamboo forest areas and sustainable harvesting of bamboo.|

指定地点内的自然环境简介。

: Except for the valleys of the Narmada and the Tapti, Madhya Pradesh consists of a plateau with a mean elevation of 1600 ft above sea level, interspersed with the mountains of the Vindhya and the Satpura ranges. The main river systems are the Chambal, Betwa, Sindh, Narmada, Tapti, Mahanadi and Indravati. Nearly one third of the state's area is covered with tropical forests ranging between the rivers Chambal in the north and Godavari in the south. To the east of Chambal, the area has rocky surfa|
Singroli, Umariya- Red & Yellow Medium black & skeletal (Medium/light)
Betul-Chhindwara- Shallow black (Medium)
Sidhi- Mixed red and black soils (Medium)
The climate is extreme in the north of Madhya Pradesh. It is cool and breezy in the central parts and humid in the eastern and southern regions. The project districts are primarily located in dry deciduous zones, with high precipitation and temperatures. |

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）？

•Livelihood impact: Community-led sustainable management of degraded bamboo areas would lead to a good harvest of bamboo culms . It is expected that clumps would improve from 15-20 culms (baseline scenario) to 25-35. Therefore, it is estimated conservatively that by the end of the project period degraded bamboo areas would generate at least 1.5 to 2 million bamboo culms . Approximately 0.3 to 0.4 million bamboos will be obtained annually, which can be used by the community as an income-generating resource:
• Enhanced ability to meet fodder needs: Regeneration of bamboo would promote healthy growth of foliage. It is estimated that through regeneration the project could deliver about 3-5 tons of biomass  per hectare, which amounts to a conservative estimate of about 40,000 to 70,000 tons of biomass from 14,500 hectares for meeting the fodder needs of livestock. This will be especially important in the lean season when dependency on forests for uncontrolled grazing increases immensely. |

对于上面列出的利益相关者，说明他们在该技术的设计、引入、使用和维护（如果有的话）中的角色。

The 789 families involved in the treatment of the degraded bamboo forest areas in and around their villages annually treat, manage, and protect the area assigned to them. In the process they interact with the forest officials to provide their own traditional knowledge towards the management of the bamboo forests etc. The two way interactions help build the knowledge towards such forestry practice. The families each year allocated 5 hectares of degraded bamboo forest areas, where weeding, cleaning congested bamboo clumps, soil work, protection, etc. are carried out. The yearlong management by the families and protection helps the bamboo forests to revive.|

The areas assigned to the poor families since have increased protection and involvement it has resulted in increased natural regeneration capacity of the areas which indicates enrichment of the in-situ biodiversity.
Each poor family against the treatment and management of the degraded bamboo forests receive a monthly remuneration of INR 2500/- or INR 30000 annually. This additional houselhold income increase has provided support to their socio-economic heeds addressing the issues of health, education etc.|

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 involvement of the community has set examples for the nearby communities for exposure to the work being done.
Protection measures by the community resulted in less incidences of forest fires.

对生物多样性和气候变化的影响

解释原因:

The participatory forest management by the local poor communities successfully addresses the revival of the local degraded eco-system. The communities have developed, protected and managed the sites towards biodiversity enrichment. Thus along with ecological revival the increased productivity of bamboo from those areas on the long run have ensured livelihood of the poor families under the access and benefit sharing through the JFM. This action leads to CC mitigation and adaptation at the community level.|
