2.1 技术简介

技术定义:

Structural riverbank protection by metal nets called gabion that are filled with stones

2.2 技术的详细说明

说明:

The studied land plot is situated in the semi-arid savannah zone of the Naro Moru sub-catchment at the foot of Mt. Kenya. A large-scale farmer owns a spacious land plot bordering Naro Moru River where he grows herbs and special plants to produce human care products. He rarely intervenes in the riparian area but is still interested in a good protection of water resources. Therefore, big stone control structures called gabions were installed to prevent big riparian trees from being undermined by water and destabilized by erosion. This method is cost intensive but can be applied locally for the protection of certain goods. The action was promoted by the Water Resource Users Association of the sub-catchment.

Purpose of the Technology: Despite semi-arid conditions, there is a high probability of flooding. Heavy rainfalls on upper slopes of Mt. Kenya lead to flood events in the semi-arid areas of Naro Moru River. These events have a destructive effect on the riverbanks, which have become instable by human induced activities such as overgrazing and deforestation. The instable riparian soils are eroded easily. The farmers lose their precious land and the water is polluted.

Establishment / maintenance activities and inputs: Big riparian trees are important for stabilizing the riverbed and riverbanks and for building a canopy that provides shade which enables the typical riparian conditions with its vast biodiversity. Thus, large metal nets (2x1x0.5 m) are filled with stones and placed in front of the roots to protect them from the direct current. These metal nets are called gabion and are placed at especially prone places. This structural measure contributes to mitigate or even stop riverbank degradation. High efforts are required to establish gabions. The costs for the metal net amount to 80 US-Dollar per net. Additionally, workforce must be found to fill the nets with stones from the river. Once installed, they ensure a good local protection. They are also used to protect bridge pillars. The life expectance of a gabion net is about 20 years if not destroyed by extreme events.

Natural / human environment: The plot is situated on a plateau at the western side of Mt. Kenya. There is not the same amount of precipitation as at the foot slopes of Mt. Kenya. However, the area still benefits from the runoff that is generated on the mountain. Precipitation in the so-called savannah zone ranges from 600mm to 900mm per year. Due to the high evaporation, rain-fed agriculture is only partly possible. Therefore most land users depend on irrigation using river water.
During the last decades, the region has experienced a still continuing population growth which increases population pressure in the area and removal and use of the vegetation along the rivers. The good accessibility and the moderate tourism allow even off-farm income-generation.
