第1节 最佳实践的背景:框架条件(自然和人类环境)

最佳实践的简短描述

The origin of the Community Managed Bio-industrial Watersheds Prof. J.S. Bali who called it “Agro-industrial Watershed Management”. The project works on the premise that watershed could go beyond natural resources management, where processing, storage and marketing is integrated with land use system. Thus, the approach builds on the conventional system of watershed management through value addition and new markets with appropriate socio-economic and institutional support systems, owned and managed by the community. |

This model of watershed management incorporates suitable land and water management through Capacity Building and Awareness,  trainings, exposure visits and most importantly by bridging the digital divide in a rural context through the VKCs.  Knowledge Management is therefore an important component of the model. The implementation also looks at the particpation of all stakeholders through a District Advisory Committee (DAC) ensuring a  scaleing  up with the participation of the concerned  line departments.|

第2节 解决的问题(直接和间接原因)和最佳实践的目标

最佳实践解决的主要问题

Land & Water Management: Repairing and rejuvenation of traditional Water bodies:  The  sluices and weir of Periya Eri (Big Tank) in the village repaired, leading to  maximium storage of water. Community wells located in the village were also repaired. Work carried out under convergence of work with the Mahatma Gandhi Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme. Eeffective water governance also facilitated by creation of a  water user group. Increase in water storage has benefitted poor and marginal farmer|Area under cultivation of each farmer has increased, and most farmers now raise 2 crops in a year. Casurina plantations  reverting to food crop cultivation.|Improving soil health. Soil health cards issued. Green manuring facilitated.  |Diversified livelihoods, especially dairy activities  promoted to enhance the income of poor and marginal farmers. Crop diversification also encouraged for income enhancement. |Water wastage and over use of chemical countered by practices of SRI, IPM and INM through capacity building and Multi Media Package for Crop Pests.

概述最佳实践解决的具体土地退化问题

1. The micro watershed comprises 468 ha land covering wet and dry with a major portion of land being utilized as quarries or as casuarinas and eucalyptus plantations due to scarcity of water for irrigation.
2. The traditional irrigation tanks (eris) and few smaller tanks had  either fallen into disuse or not being utilized to its optimal level due to siltation and damage to the sluice, weirs etc., contributing  to the decline in land productivity.  The community open wells are placed far, so the cost of pumping increases leading the farmer to dig their own wells, but since proper lining is not done, the walls often caved in.
3. Because of Uncontrolled grazing land was being left fallow. Farmers’ were not able to take advantage of the schemes and subsidies of the government for drip/sprinkler irrigation systems since the as the fertile lands are small and split.
4. Granite Quarrying has caused land degradation and damaged the aquifers

具体说明最佳实践的目标

1. Conservation and Enhancement of Natural Resources – Participatory management of common resources through awareness, infrastructure development and facilitation of community based institutions to ensure equity and rights of the socially and economically marginalised; convergence with Panchayati Raj Institutions and Government Departments for bringing in synergy.|2. Improving On-farm Productivity & Profitability – Adopting a Participatory Technology Development (PTD) approach to improve farm productivity through Farmers Field Schools (FFS) and Training of Trainers (ToT), and promoting a holistic Integrated Farming Systems (IFS) for sustainable resource management.|3. Generation of Non and Off-farm Market driven Enterprises – Promoting diversified livelihood options for the watershed community with backward and forward credit, technology and market linkages and using ecotechnologies for livelihood security.

第5节 对影响的贡献

描述现场影响(按类别划分的两类主要影响)

The organic carbon ranged between 0.208–2.179% during 2007 which was higher than the recommended level of 0.5 – 0.75%. In contrast, the organic carbon decreased in most of the fields and the range was 0.341 – 1.03% during 2011. |
As a result of project  intervention there  has been the increase in water storage. A number of  poor and marginal farmers from the Scheduled could benefit by the recharge in their wells.The pumping hours of the wells has risen to one hour from the earlier half an hour.
2. Increase in  acreage and number of  farmers . Yields have gradually increased from 3 tonnes to 3.6 tonnes/acre for the local variety while that of the improved variety from 3.6 tonnes to 4 tonnes/acre. As a result of such efforts, survival rate of the seedlings in the nursery was close to 80%.|
1. Improvement of soil health: Due to the project intervention, the soil analysis based fertilizer application led to an increase in the phosphorus level during 2009 (3.9 to 28.7 Kg/acre). The available potassium ranged between 53.0-465.0 Kg/acre in 2007 which was higher than the recommended level.|
On a gender perspective, the watershed activities focus upon participation from the women and priority is given to women to work in the watershed activities. The BIWS Committee has given importance of bringing people together to represent caste, class and gender on an equitable manner.
System of Rice Intensification (SRI) introduced to substantially improve cultivation practice with reduced cost of cultivation and efficient management of available water.
Acres of permanent fallow could be brought back under cultivation, water for critical irrigation for paddy was made available. Moreover, the farmers could go in for two crops paddy followed by onion and vegetables leading to an increased net area and farmer can also go in for SRI cultivation.
The farmers are cultivating seasonal vegetables, area under cultivation of each farmer has increased, and farmers now raise 2 crops in a year.
With the assurance of water, farmers who were earlier unwilling to take the risk of cultivation land have gained confidence enough to even go cultivation.
