编制者和关键资源人员接受有关使用通过WOCAT记录数据的条件。:

是

2.1 该方法的简要说明

Through community meetings farmers get interest of using mulching on flat area to reduce soil erosion.

2.2 该方法的详细说明

该方法的详细说明:

Aims / objectives: The main aim of this approach was to reduce soil erosion as well as increasing their products. This approach involved meetings between farmers in their communities , it involves sharing of knowledge related to mulching and the ways of maintaining it.

Methods: The criteria of developing mulching was through meetings. Key farmers organized after every two months, at every village, and disseminated information about the ways and how to maintain it.
Demonstration was also done at one farmers' garden , to show others how to make it.

Stages of implementation: In the process of implementing it, there was clearing of weed from garden, covering of soil with grass and other crop residues. In the space left from one plant to another , the farmer did some composting purposely to increase the rate of fertility, Re-mulching also done ,when cover materials decompose.

Role of stakeholders: Farmers provided the labor during implementation and maintenance process . They also were involved in decision making especially while attending meetings.

Other important information: In the process of implementing mulching , there was gender balance between men and women during decision making and provision of labor. But the high percentage were men of ages ranging from 25 years and above, with involvement of community leaders.

2.9 推动或妨碍实施本办法所适用的技术的条件

3.1 该方法涉及的利益相关者及其职责

3.2 当地土地使用者/当地社区参与该方法的不同阶段

	当地土地使用者/当地社区的参与	指定参与人员并描述活动
启动/动机	自我动员	Skilled farmers and others.
计划	自我动员
实施	自我动员	Land users.
监测/评估	自我动员	Land users and skilled farmers.
Research	自我动员	Farmers themselves.

3.4 有关SLM技术选择的决策

具体说明谁有权决定选择要实施的技术:

• 仅限土地使用者（自主）

解释:

In making decision on how to implement mulching was through meetings by land users . Key farmers organize meetings at village levels, and other framers picked interest. It was between men and women.

Decisions on the method of implementing the SLM Technology were made by by land users* alone (self-initiative / bottom-up). Meetings were held, and one demonstration done in one farmers' garden . Other farmers visited the one who had ever practiced it to share experiences. It was done on local basis.

如果相关，请说明性别、年龄、地位、种族等。:

Aged from 20years and above female and male.

培训形式:

• 公开会议

涵盖的主题:

All matters related to soil erosion & increase outputs.

注释:

Training was provided to land users by key farmers facilitated by advisory service but there was no financial support or inputs, given to farmers.

Farmers who attended farmer field schools trained other farmers at local levels , and others picked interest from there.

4.2 咨询服务

土地使用者有权使用咨询服务吗？:

是

说明/注释:

Name of method used for advisory service: Training.; Key elements: meetings.

Advisory service is inadequate to ensure the continuation of land conservation activities

4.4 监测和评估

监测和评估是该方法的一部分吗？:

是

注释:

bio-physical aspects were regular monitored by land users through observations; indicators: soil erosion reduced.

socio-cultural aspects were regular monitored by land users through observations; indicators: Peoples attitude towards mulching increased.

economic / production aspects were regular monitored by land users through observations; indicators: farmers income increased due to increased output.

economic / production aspects were None monitored by land users through measurements; indicators: Both men and women involved highly.

no. of land users involved aspects were None monitored by land users through observations; indicators: None

There were few changes in the Approach as a result of monitoring and evaluation: Some few changes observed where by some few farmers started to adopt extension advisory service.

There were few changes in the Technology as a result of monitoring and evaluation: Few of them now applying mulching at the same time applying composting, this was observed at Katereggas' site.
