Structural riverbank protection by metal nets called gabion that are filled with stones
Mulching is done by covering the soil surface between crop rows, around trees (mostly fruit and orchard) or vegetables with cut grass, crop residues, straw or other plant material in order to retain soil moisture, prevent or suppress weed growth and enhance soil structure.
Artificial grassed waterways are constructed waterways established for transportation of concentrated flow at safe velocities using adequate vegetation.
Fanya juu terraces stabilized with nappier grass and sweet potatoes are earth bunds created by digging a trench along a contour and throwing the soil up slope to form an embankment that is stabilized with nappier grass and during maintenance phase, the accumulated sediments are removed and thrown on the …
Les arbres de Grevillea robusta à usage multiples sont plantés le long les limites des champs, sur les talus des terraces et des fois dispersés dans les champs.
management of runoff water on the road and its environment to reduce land degradation
Grass reseeding is a sustainable land management practice aimed at rehabilitating degraded pastures and providing livestock feed. This is mainly carried out with indigenous perennial grass species.
Enlarged ditch/channels that are not graded in order to collect and retain runoff from road/school (External Catchments)
Blocking of a gully by use of stone checks in order to impede runoff and improve soil moisture for crop production
A combination of agricultural (e.g. intercropping, mulching, minimum tillage), vegetative (e.g. Napier grass strips, trees planting) and structural (e.g. ditches, bench terracing) measures which aim to maximise the overall yield in a sustainable manner (e.g. reduction of soil erosion and increasing the soil quality).
