LAYING OUT OF PLOTS AND RAINWATER HARWESING DEVICES

Rainwater harvesting devices.Top: contour trench (left) and box trench (right. Bottom: gradonie (left) and V-ditch (right). DIFFERENT RAINWATER HARVESTING DEVICES

PITS EXCAVATION AND PLANATATION

Plantation activities Plot after plantation

Plantation activity in clockwise i.e., pitting (top left), scraping of surface soil to put it into pit, plantation of seedlings and a micro-water harvesting around planted seedling AFFORESTATION UNDER RESOURCE CONSERVATION

Preparation of run-off measuring device for collection of 1/20th part of water flowing from a plot RUN-OFF MEASURING DEVICE

Run-off collection in the tank and accumulated silt load in front of run-off measuring device (left) Stirring of water for homogeneity and collection of water sample in September 2006 for laboratory analysis for soil content, water and nutrient quality of run-off water (right) RUN-OFF COLLECTION AND WATER SAMPLING FOR ANALYSIS

Sub-surface flow of water increases water level in down slope areas Up position Down position Mid position INFILTRATION AND SUBSURAFCE FLOW OF STORED WATER IN RWH DEVICES

Water supply to the seedlings can be ensured by planting seedlings downside of a RWH structure WATER SUPPLY FROM STORAGE TO ROOT ZONE OF PLANTS

SEQUENTIAL GROWTH AND AREA DEVELOPEMENT June 2006 June 2007 July 2008 July 2009

PLANT GROWTH AND VEGETATION DEVELOPEMENT Area in October 2010

IMPROVEMENT IN REGENERATION OF GRASSES Heteropogon contortus : increased in area each year

IMPROVEMENT IN REGENERATION OF GRASSES Themeda quadrivalvis : a high altitude grass dominated in higher slopes

Apluda mutica : a high altitude grass dominating throughout the area IMPROVEMENT IN REGENERATION OF GRASSES

REGENERATED TREE SPECIES AFTER TREATMENT Acacia ferruginea (left) and Acacia leucophloea (right) regenerated under restoration process and perform better in V-ditch plots than the other plots

Interactions with the forest officials and Director, AFRI, Dr. R.L. Srivastava during field visit of PCCF, Rajasthan, Sh Abhijeet Ghose VISIT OF EXPERIMENTAL AREA BY DIGNITORIES

Increased Water supply as a result of Rainwater harvesting (RWH) structures. Domestic animal use to drink the water available in the area up to February ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: WATER AVAILABILITY

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: FODDER AVAILABILITY Villagers use to collect fodder from the area from November to June each year

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: FUEL WOOD AVAILABILITY Villagers use to collect about tones of fuel wood from regenerating P. juliflora and Lantana camara bushes
