Geographic Scope

The project is focused on Abbigeri Thand and Jainapura villages within the Koppal taluk and district, covering a watershed with a total area of approximately 2000 hectares. This area includes eight villages and approximately 900 families.

Farm Bunds

The project involves the construction of farm bunds across the slope, tailored to the land's slope and soil type. These bunds are planted with grass seeds to promote fodder production and stabilize the bunds.

Training and Capacity Building

The project includes training and capacity-building initiatives for local communities, crop demonstrations, and livelihood activities designed to benefit the poor and landless.

Village Knowledge Centers

Development of Village Knowledge Centers is planned, which can serve as hubs for information exchange and knowledge sharing.

Seed and Fodder Bank

The project includes the establishment of seed and fodder banks, which can support agricultural activities and provide a source of seeds and fodder for the community.

Waste Weirs

Waste weirs are created at suitable locations to manage surplus runoff water from the lands. These structures use locally available boulders for construction.

Farm Ponds

Farm ponds are constructed to harvest excess surface runoff, and the stored water is used for protective irrigation for plantations. Boulder bunds are utilized in steep slopes to withstand runoff water.

Forestry and Horticulture

Forestry plants are planted on bunds and farm ponds, including various varieties such as fodder, timber, firewood, and biomass-yielding species. Horticulture plants are provided to each farmer, and grass seeds are sown on bunds and farm ponds to stabilize the bunds.

  • Farm bunds are constructed across the slope based on land slope and soil type and bunds covered with grass seeds for fodder production and bund stabilization.
  • Training, capacity building, crop demonstration, livelihood activities for poor and landless, development village knowledge center and seed & fodder bank activities are planned under the project.
  • Waste weirs are created at suitable location to dispose surplus runoff water from lands using locally available boulders.
  • Farm ponds are built to harvest excess surface runoff and water stored in the pond is used for protective irrigation for plantation. Boulder bunds are constructed in steep slope where the soil bund is not suitable to with stand the runoff water, locally available boulders are used for boulder bund construction.
  • Forestry plants are planted on bunds and farm ponds in CBP area with different varieties of forestry plants such as fodder, timber, fire wood and biomass yielding species etc. Horticulture plants are provided to each farmer. Grass seeds are sown on bunds and farm ponds as cover crop on bunds for stabilization of bund.

 

  • Along with soil and water conservation measures, climate proofing interventions like drip irrigation, borewell recharge, soil health improvement activities like green manure crops, liquid manure preparation, integrated Pest & nutrient management, crop rotation inter cropping and integrated farming activities also being taken up.
