EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The sanctioned project covers Seven micro-watersheds 2C4B5c1d (Sonasi), 2C4B5c4a (Mahauli Samsherganj), 2C4B5c4b (Basait), 2C4B5c1c (Badhauni), 2C4B5c3a (Rathe), 2C4B5c1a (Sathigawan), 2C4B5c1b (Tariha) covered by fifteen villages under twelve gram panchayat of Kisni block of the Mainpuri district of U.P. The selected IWMP Ist project is covering 5561.65 ha geographical area. The watershed cluster fall in between 26˚ 59’4.263” N to 27˚ 4’ 44.86” N latitude and 79˚ 16’ 21.134” E to 79˚ 2’ 58.507” E longitude. The treatable area is 4004.00 ha. Main problem is low rainfall (789.782 mm) with uneven distribution, resulting to draught, undulating slopy terrain with sandy soil along with Arind river bank. Population is not rich and grouped as marginal (3576) small (1112 ) and large farmers (750). About 419.05 areas come under waste land, which is prioritized for treatment under watershed management programme. There are block orchard plantations in the locality which are a potential land use for draught affected area. There is no small or big industry in the project area having unemployment and poverty. Total human population is 49074.00 with 25511.00 male and 23563.00 female. The livestock population of the project is 13992 cow 24270 buffalos and 10588 sheep, goat and pig, milch animals.
In general the entire area is an alluvial plain, with a gentle slope, near about 1%. from north-west to south-east. There are serval natural depressions apart from those formed by the river valleys and drainage lines. Elevated sand ridges are also found especially in the west of the district. Overall, these soils are characterized by their extreme depth, often several hundred feet, and a gray or grayish brown colour. Their texture varies from sandry, sandy loam to clay loam, Their structure is also variable, being loose, open and free draining in case of the sandy soils and compact impervious in case of the clayey soils. Agriculture is the main occupation of the people of the selected project. The crops mainly raised in the district are Bajra, Maize, Mustard, Wheat, Potato, Vegetables, Rose, Moong, Arhar, Garlic and Sugar cane. However, major area is covered under Bajra, Maize, Wheat & Mustard crops. While the farmers of watershed area are extensively depends on Rice, Wheat and Bajra. Most of the lands are fallow during the Kharif season because of unavailability of assured irrigation. Only 45% area during Kharif season is cropped under the watershed area. While in Rabi season, it increase over the kharif and reached near about 65%. Thus, it clearly indicate that sustainable development of agriculture needs assured irrigation. Natural vegetation of the watershed area is very poor. The vegetation in predomination are Vilayati Babul (Prosopis juliflora), Babul (Acacia nilotica). Occasional occurrence of Neem, Shisham, Anola etc. There is no grass land in the watershed. The patches of grasses are seen only on the bunds, road side, ridges etc. The watershed area are greatly affected by the soil erosion. Erosion occurred in this area mainly through Sheet erosion (about 60%) Rill erosion (about 26%) and Gully erosion (about 10%) of the total proposed area. This problem may be corrected by harvesting the additional water in existing water harvesting structures, which have lost most of their capacity due to siltation which results in creating new water bodies. The stored water in such structures, provided supplemental irrigation at critical growth stages of crops as well as fruit, orchards and forest tree. In agricultural land will treated with buding along with minor leveling. Waste land will be treated with the engineering measures like staggered trenches and a forestation etc.

India is rich country in natural resources but low production and poverty due to unscientific and mismanagement of resources. India receives maximum rainfall as Compared to any other adjacent country. Eventhough various draughts and floods occur alternatively or simultaneously in various parts of country. Due to high fertility of alluvial soil has a lot of potential to feed grain. The Land development and water resources department has accepted the challenge to conserve and manage soil and water rsources in the project area. Integrated and participated development of watershed has been proved to be only solution for sustainability of society, environment and production of food. Fodder, forest fruits fuels, fiber flower etc. This fact has been realized by National Rain fed Authority of India and MoRD and they sanctioned a very comprehensive watershed development plan for overall development of India. The Ultimate goal of project is healthy and wealthy people by achieving following targets Change of 285.20 ha temp. wasteland and 133.85 ha. permanent wasteland. Project is tested and analyzed for its profitability as SWOT, FOVEASS, Logical Framework analysis, NPV cost benefit Ratio ( 1.30:1), IRR (20.60) and also Sensitivity analysis and found highly cost effective and profitable .

1.1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In the era of globalization and phenomenal technological progress, Indian agriculture faces the twin challenges of meeting the rising demand
for food of increasing population and making the best use of technologies and recourses for production. Agriculture is the backbone of Indian
economy and about 75 Percent population totally depend on agriculture and our water resources are maximum as compared to any country of this size
but we are facing severe drought and flood alternately and simultaneously in different parts of the country. As a result of mis-management, land
resources are degrading at a faster rate resulting in low production and high poverty. Out of 329 million ha of total area of our country, about 53.5
percent (175 million ha) is in the urgent need of soil and water conservation measures. Every year we are losing about 5334 million tones of soil and
18.8 billion cubic meter water along with 10 million tones fertilizing and other nutrient elements. The century facing very low production of agriculture
and problem of food and poverty to the farmers. Which are affecting prosperity to the posterity. It has been proved beyond doubt during the last 30
years that integrated and participatory watershed development especially in drought region is the only answer of social upliftment of rural folk
and need to successive changes in overall development for the country.
Selected area in the Mainpuri district is facing problems in a very aggravated condition due to mismanagement resources and population
pressure of human and animals, which are causing resource degradation at an alarming rate with low productivity and various problems of soil & water
down below. The project area of 4004.00 ha. of I.W.M.P.- I, under Arend watersheds out of total geographical area of 5561.65 ha. of all
comprised villages in which 419.05 ha. is under Wasteland.
Ministry of Rural Development Govt. of India, New Delhi realized the problem of the selected area in the block Kishniin the Mainpuri district to
remove the problem and sanctioned the budget for Integrated Watershed management Project under Deptt. to Land Development and Water Resources
Mainpuri (UP) with budgetary provision of Rs. 480.48 lakh for Mainpuri district of UP The master plan of IWMP Ist of Mainpuri watershed has been
prepared by conducting detailed integrated survey, intensive exercise on Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA),
experience gained and recommendations made by various state, national & international watershed development authorities.

1.1.1 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT (SCHEME)
1. To promote the economic development of the village community which is directly or indirectly dependent on the watershed through?
a. Optimum utilization of the watershed's natural resources namely land, water, vegetation animal etc. that will ensure sustainability of production & society and mitigation of drought by scientific and judicious management of water resources.
b. Employment generation and development of the human especially landless and ladies and other economic resources of the village in order to promote savings
and other income generation activities.
2. To encourage restoration of ecological balance in the watershed through;
a. A scientific and judicious management of natural resources so that flood and draught, land, water & nutrients can be conserved, productivity and income can be improved and other problems namely sedimentation of reservoirs, communication failures, ravine development, pollution of air and water etc. can be minimized.
b. Sustained community action for the operation and maintenance of assets created and further development of the potential of the natural resources in the
watershed. c. Simple, easy and affordable technological solutions and institutional arrangements that make use of, and build upon, local technical knowledge and
available materials to improve bio-diversity, environment and sustainability in all spheres.
3. Special emphasis to improve the economic and social condition of the resource-poor and the disadvantaged sections of the watershed community such as
the asset less and the women through:
a. More equitable distribution of the benefits of land and water resources development and the consequent biomass production. b. Greater access to income generating opportunities and focus their human resource development.
4. Human resource development through working, training and visits at all levels namely administrators, technicians, field workers and beneficiaries. The project will yield a valuable and permanent system of brotherhood, love and effective cooperation amongst the villagers and watershed authorities by working with the groups and membership of various village institutions.
14
5. The operational projects proposed and conducted, will guide scientists to investigate the scientific basis of local technical innovations and to either give validation to the farmer's practices or improve upon their technical content without losing their comparative advantage of cost-effectiveness and simple and easy usefulness. Non-monitory input namely contour cultivation, mulch, crop geometry, tillage, INM and IPM need to be promoted.
6. Capacity building of village institutions and local bodies in implementing the responsibilities assigned to them.

1.6 NEED OF WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
Watershed Development Programme is prioritized on the basis of thirteen parameters namely Poverty Index, Percentage of
SC/ST, Actual wages, Percentage of small and marginal farmers, Ground water status, Moisture index, Area under rainfed agriculture,
Drinking water situation in the area, Percentage of the degraded land, Productivity potential of the land, Continuity of another watershed that
has already developed/treated, cluster approach for plain or for hilly terrain. Based on these thirteen parameters a composite ranking was
given to Eval Watershed project as given in Table no. 2 the total number of families under BPL is above 50 percent of the total households of
the village. Hence a score of 7.5 is allotted. The percentage of schedule castes in the village is about 35 percent to the total population; hence
a score of 10 was allotted. Rainfed agriculture for is the primary occupation of the village due to the fact that ground water is saline and
hence unfit for usage. More than 80 percent of the farmers are small and marginal by natural and the actual wages earned by the labour is
less than the minimum wages hence a composite rank of 5, and 10 are allotted respected.
Since the rainfall received is erratic and irregular. Drinking water is problematic in the village. The soil is very permeable and production of
the land can be significantly enriched with the availability of timely irrigation. All watershed falls in continuity with other watershed. Cluster
approach was followed taking into consideration five micro-watersheds covering a total area of 7469 Ha. Thus a cumulative score of 84.5.All
the parameters taken together give a cumulative score of 90 to the watershed
Objectives and Scope of Project
a. Conservation, development and sustainable management of natural resources including their use
b. Enhancement of agriculture production and productivity in a sustainable manner.
c. Restoration of ecological balance in the degraded and fragile rain-fed ecosystem.
d. Reduction in regional disparity between rain-fed and irrigated areas.
e. Creation of sustainable employment opportunities for the rural community for livelihood security.

1.7 COMMON PROBLEMS OF THE PROJECT AREA
The watershed is subjected to various natural & man made desertification, low productivity and imbalanced ecosystem and socio-economic condition of the villagers as described here. The users, planner’s .developmental and funding agencies and administrators should make efforts to find solutions and create situations to avoid the following problems faced in the past for achieving successful project.
Natural Calamities –
1. Increase in number frequency, duration of metrological, hydrological and agriculture of droughts resulting in poor water storage and vegetal production. 2. During normal rainfall years the area receives rainfall during June to September and scanty & irregular showers during winter. Thus remaining period
suffers from draught due to low water conservation power of the area as result of erodible causing high run off conditions. 3. The sandy soil along river bank and also loam in other area has low water holding capacity and fertility as well. 4. The few torrential and erosive rain storms on weak and fragile ecosystem need suitable umbrella of vegetative cover to conserve soil 5. Area also suffers from comparatively higher temperature in summer.
1. Reduction in water storage capacity of existing structures creating loss of irrigation potential. 2. The farmers are over cultivating degraded terraces, overgrazing grasslands, illicit felling and pollarding of forest trees. Thus, disturbing ecological
balance. 3. Lack of awareness and absence of soil conservation works to be adopted by the farmers and state Govt. 4. The watershed does not have the good soil for water harvesting, storage & re-cycling by way of constructing embankment, gully plugs, ponds, nala bundling
etc. to face the challenge of drought by providing life saving irrigation to the crops mitigating erosion and flood on foot hills. 5. The productivity of Agriculture, Horticulture, and Animal husbandry is far below the optimum level due to following reasons.
(I) Great dependence on monsoon: (II) Insufficient fertilizer per unit cropped area: (III) Traditional farming methods: (IV) Lack of adequate farm machinery: (V) Lack of finances for farmers: (VI)Lack of good quality seeds and fertilizers:
20
Administration-
1. The planning of watershed is a bottom up approach based on PRA & RRA. While it was suffering due to its dependence almost entirely on the top
down bureaucracy with very little participation of the villagers.
2. Watershed management is a multi-disciplinary and multi-pharaohs activity which calls for active participation of the entire related state department but it
is suffering from poor co-operation and superiority complex.
3. In many cases the Chief administrator felt helpless to co-ordinate the activities by involving the departments due to their busy schedule a political
pressure & poor administrative hold on other departments Thus, the system of joint responsibility of sharing activities is almost paralyzed.
4. Frequent transfers of competent and experienced officers and posting of untrained and inexperienced officers with the qualification not related with the
watershed development. The development by planers will yield added success.
5. The watershed development is a difficult task in the backward and remotely situated areas and the men have to settle their families in the towns far
away from the watershed having house, medical and education facilities. The hardship of watershed managers is not generally considered by
sanctioning project disturbance allowance and facilities which ultimately lead to suffering of the work and employees.
Facilities and finances –
1. The project implementing agency, responsible for watershed Development, does not have sufficient facilities. The machines and implements namely tractor,
bulldozer, jeep, improved quality seed and breed of animal etc. The PIA officer does not get sufficient co-operation from the other Govt. Depts. for
satisfying these needs.
2. A field laboratory for testing important parameters of soils, water, vegetation, animal etc. is generally not provided to the watershed development
project.
3. In many cases watershed manager does not get sufficient funds as per actual estimate and grant is based on the standard and estimate fixed in the previous
years having low rates of material and labour.
4. It is a common problem in most of the department as a whole. The funds are not provided as per work and execution schedule and made available
sometimes in the last week of financial year which is affecting quality & quantity of work, misuse and misappropriation of funds.
5. Funds are very limited and as per rough estimate the rate of resource degradation and reclamation measures in our country are almost going on
with the same speed.
6. There is also fear that a rapid expansion of the intellectual property regime, which is now beginning to cover scientific findings & important to
food, health security and other basic life support systems, New technology may not be readily available to resource poor rural families.
7. Poverty of people availability/untimely of suitable input and technology.
Socio-economic –
1. The farmers of the area are poor because many of them are either landless or having uneconomic small holdings resulting the status of farmers
below the poverty line.
21
2. The production of the crops of horticulture, agriculture and grass from panchayat and gazing lands is far below the optimum level. The villagers don't have sufficient alternate land use and income.
3. Few unemployed youths and workless villagers are in the habit of gambling and drinking.
4. Ladies are over worked in the house as well as in the field.
5. The self interest to grasp benefits by individuals, influential persons, politicians and between sub villages
Industrialization of watershed –
1. There is no small or big factory in the watershed for employment of the people. 2. Alternate land use as source of additional income namely bee-keeping, mushroom production, sericulture, piggery, fishery, dairy processing etc. on
commercial scale are beyond the imagination of the dwellers in most of Project areas. 3. The Operational facilities of banking for the loan at a low interest for the purchase of farm inputs are not there. The farmers are dependent on local
money lenders, charging high interest rate. 4. The facilities of storage, marketing and transport of the village produce are very meager or absent.

Gram panchayat collected secondary data.
23
STEP-2 Village meeting & conducting PRA exercise:- Community meeting conducted on fix days for the consultation with villagers for the PRA Exercise. Participatory
mode of the villages was positive indicated for the success of programme. With good in testing participation has been drawn social & resource map on ground & paper &
discussed unvarious topics of problematic thoughts in the micro watershed.
STEP-3 Socio economic survey: - The resource organization of village label volunteers identified to conduct house hold socio economic survey/states.
STEP-4 Probe typology analysis:-Thoroughly analyzed the data & identified problem type as soil & moisture conservation, crop rotation, crop coverage, productivity,
livelihoods, social issues & capacity building gaps etc. Problems discussed with the watershed committee & came up with alternative solution.

2.1 Location:
The location of the project is south part of Mainpuri district, the distance of the project area from district headquarter are about 35km.
The project area situated in the kisni block. The watershed cluster fall in between 26˚ 59’4.263” N to 27˚ 4’ 44.86” N latitude and 79˚ 16’
21.134” E to 79˚ 2’ 58.507” E longitude. The Project is located on the Easter bank of river Arind which is meandering severely and
eroding cultivated fields every year. Apart from erosion much more damage is done by the river by spreading its unfertile sand on fertile
lands. This leads to high erosion due to loss of fertile lands and water holding capacity. This needs immediate measures by government
to save the economic condition to the farmers.
29
2.2. Shape and Extent:
Total treatable area of the watershed is 4004.00 ha. Elevation ranges from 145 to 160 meter above mean sea level. Watershed comprised of 15 villages with the geographical area of 5561.65 ha. Maximum length and width of the Project area of the I.W.M.P. is 11.013 Km North to South and 9.40 Km East to West respectively. Thus the ratio of length and width is 1:1. (Approx.)Shape of watershed is rectangular.

3.1 Geomorphology and Soils
The selected area lies in the District- Mainpuri. The soil is mainly sandy and sandy loam, which is easily transportable by rain water after detaching causing severe soil erosion. Thus the soils have high water absorbing and low water holding capacity. In the watershed area mainly four types of soil are found named as – sandy, sandy loam, loam and in the few area other which are also the main soil of District Mainpuri. The main showing crop in the area is wheat, Garlic and gram in Rabi and rice in kharif pulses are also sowing in few areas which consume more phosphorous. Therefore, serious deficiency of phosphorous is in there area.
The project area experienced very severe bank erosion to the tune of about hundred hectare land and few hundred hectares of fertile lands has been damaged by siltation/deposition of unfertile land of Arind river during mansoon of 2009. This year Arind catchment experienced a very high and record braking rain fall in Uttar Pradesh. Many areas were inundated due to high fluid and cause grate loss to the standing crop. The soils are very deep and alluvial having various types of soil textured on the surface as well as in the deeper strata down below. The sallow and the deep tube wall are plane in the sandy strata having good ground water table/aquifer.

2. Sandy loam - 156083.00 (57%)
3. Others - 31659.00 (12%)
3.2 Present Land Use in the Watershed
The watershed has diversified land uses, namely Agriculture Waste land (open scrub), seasonal water bodies etc map. Major is also under Agro-horti system and agro-forestry having rows of trees along the field boundaries as well as inside the crop.

area of the village (ha) (falling within the projects)
Various agriculture land uses in the watershed are extended to diversified land capabilities starting from marginal to good class
IInd lands. The watershed distinctly has three types of land i.e. leveled, sloping and degraded and undulating. The agriculture is practiced on
all these soil types though the productivity considerably varies. The total area in agriculture in the project is 4797.85 ha, total 1079.03 ha of
the tube well and canal irrigated area of the villages. The water (both for irrigation and drinking) is available in the major area. The operation
of tube wells for irrigation of agricultural crops frequently leads to down ward movements/deepening of the water table. Which may lower
the water supply of the sallow tube wells.
Crop Productivity
Food crop production is a major land based activity in the watershed. Traditional cultivation practices, coupled with poor quality
seeds and long duration crops varieties result in low crop yields. Crops are taken under rainfed as well as irrigated conditions. The yield
levels of rainfed crops are particularly very poor. The total production by Rabi and Kharif are obtained by a standard size of holding family,
by which they can fulfill the requirements of food up to whole in a year.
The farmers also do not have suitable cropping systems to deal aberrant weather. Weeds impose considerable constraint in
producing of both Kharif and rabi crops under irrigation as well as rain-fed production system. Use of weedicide is rare in the watershed. The
mixed cropping is in practice in limited area with Kharif crops like bajra and jowar+Arhar. Subsequent rabi crops in general are raised on
residual soil moisture under rain-fed production system during post monsoon season. Imbalanced use of fertilizers is common in Rabi as well
Kharif crops. In rainfed and irrigated production system the recommended deep ploughing for enhanced in situ residual soil moisture
conservation and higher production is also not followed in the watershed. The shallow ploughing tractors drawn tillage implements are
available with the farmers in the watershed but deep ploughing implements yet need to be introduced.
The soil fertility/health restoration practices like green manuring, crop rotations and intercropping specially with legumes, use of
FYM/compost, bermi-compost ,bio-fertilizers ,soil and water conservation measures, use of brought up or in situ mulches are widely lacking
in the watershed. The soil and water conservation measures are limited to mechanical/earthen measures created by the state Govt. agencies.
Conservation agronomical measures like seeding and ploughing across the slope, weed mulching, agro-forestry, vegetative barriers etc are
also completely lacking in the watershed.
41
3.4 Horticulture
The watershed has organized orchards; however, farmers also have fruit plants (mango, ber, bale, guava, amla, lemon etc.) near the homesteads
and kitchen gardens. The climate and soil of the area is favorable for fruit growing for sub tropical fruits in the lower reaches. Organized orchards,
commercial vegetable cultivation, agro horticulture, and other system of agro forestry are in practice. The total are under orchard is about 209 ha. out of
which 48 ha. Orchards have agri horti system. Mango is the common frout tree for the system. The common agriculture crops, which are grown under
mango, are wheat and Oat during Ravi and fodder crops namely Jowar and Bajra during Kharif. The part of the area about 80 ha. near sathigawan is used
for floriculture (Merry gold). Olericulture/ vegetable cultivation is mainly practiced in Sathigawan area. There are no facilities for fruit storage and
preservation in the project area.
3.4.2 Agro-Forestry
The agro forestry practices are common in the watershed and it has good potential under existing dispositions and may play a vital role
particularly with respect to minimization of cropping risk, built up soil fertility and productivity soil conservation, partly meeting out the fire wood
demand of rural community The agro-forestry interventions comprising of Equilyptus, Teak, Popular, Sagaun, Shisham, Neem, etc may be applied for
benefit of farmers under rainfed to irrigated production systems on leveled to sloppy and marginal agricultural using proper planting techniques and
termite control measures. The multipurpose trees may also help in supplementing fire wood and fodder demands of the rural community in the watershed
and may be intensively planted as hedge rows on rain-fed, marginal and degraded lands. Popular and Equilyptus are grown on field boundaries and as
well as intercropping. The tree produce goes to match box, ply and paper factory.
3.4.3 Forest and Natural Vegetation
There are no area for forest land, Natural vegetation of the watershed is very poor. The forest vegetation is predominant with Sheesham
and sagon. There are some places near to nala and rivers where Neem, Amla, Palash and Shisham etc. are found. There is no reserve pasture land in the
watershed. Congress weed is common in forest area and waste land.

3.5 HUMAN AND LIVE STOCK POPULATION
The total geographical area of the 15 villages is selected under the project of I.W.M.P.I Mainpuri. Population of all 15 villages of the watershed is 49163 with average family size of 8 persons.

3.6 Infrastructure & Social Facilities
The watershed has moderate to good communication facilities and 15 villages are approachable through motorable road. Literacy rate in the watershed is low because except some village all villages are having education facilities up to Junior High School. One intermediate college is established in village Basait. Secondary education and degree collage (with few faculties of subjects) facilities are available at Block headquarter. Degree Collage and other high education are available at Mainpuri. The buildings/ Panchayat Ghar and Barat Ghar are there and used for social gathering and religious functions. Sufficient numbers of Hand pumps have replaced all old water wells. Nearest small markets are Kisni and big market at district headquarter Mainpuri. Small land holdings (average less than 1.0 ha) large family size (average 6 person) and more than 7% of the labour force of the total population living below poverty line indicate poor socio-economic status of the watershed community However a strong community spirit among the village show a positive indication for the success of any programme implemented in a participatory mode. Traditionally, the entire village community participates in the individual’s work needing labour such as sowing, harvesting, house construction works etc. Social maps of the watershed villages drawn by villagers themselves, depicting village’s features are attached. The project is not connected with the railway facilities how ever the following national and state highways are there.
3.6.1 Communication System
Sufficient numbers of private and government buses and other micro transport system are available on these roads. The nearest railway station is about 40 km away at Mainpuri city. The sufficient number of car and tractor (Large Farmer) and motorcycle (Marginal Farmer) are there.
3.6.2 Natural Resource Base
Out of the total 5561.54 ha area of the selected village only 3178 ha are under rainfed agriculture and designated as project area. watershed under agriculture use an area of ha is under rain fed agriculture and assured irrigation by means of private tube well and canal is available in 1079.03 ha’Which is not including in the project/rainfed/treatable area’ . Main source of irrigation is private tube wells and seasonal water bodies for pre-sowing irrigation only. The maps having road, drain system, contour and location are available in report in capture 5.
3.7 Livelihood More than 75% of the total population in the watershed is engaged in farming. Therefore major source of livelihood is farming and rest about 25% labours and 3% service+ business class. Dairy Farming, rope making, poultry form, Sericulture are also practiced in the project area.
3.8 Depending on forest for fuel wood and fodder
Fuel wood: Some villagers of the selected village are using LPG to meet their cooking energy requirements. The main source of fuel is cow dung cake, woody stem of Arhar crop and Mustard. About 65 to 70 percent of the domestic energy requirement is met from the Agro by-product and cow dung cake. Rest is met out from the forest outside the village and watershed boundary. Fuel wood is obtained from the fringe orchard area which is situated by the side of the few villages. Cow dung cake is a common fuel specially with poor and middle class families.
47
Fodder: Villages do not have any significant dependency on orchard based fodder as these sources are not available in the forests. The Straw wheat, jawar, black gram and pea are major source of dry fodder. Dairy is an important business and the farmers are also growing green fodder of sorghum and bajara during Kharif and barseen during ravi.
3.8.1 Facilities of agriculture inputs implement and funds.
Sufficient government, private and cooperative facilities are there for the supply of seed, fertilizer and other chemicals are there. Banking facilities and private money lenders are also active in the project area. The facilities of Agro Industries are only available in the neighboring big town-Mainpuri.

3.10 Dependency on forest for fuel wood and fodder
(a) Fuel Wood- Villagers in the village do not use LPG to meet their cooking energy requirements. The main source of fuel is from buffalo, He buffalo and cow dung cake, woody stem of Arhar crop and Mustard. About 60 to 65 percent of the domestic energy requirement is met from the agro byproduct and buffalo, his buffalo and cow dung cake. Rest is met out from the outside the village and watershed boundary. Most preferred fuel wood is Vilayati Babool. Fuel wood is obtained from the forest of Prosopis Juliflora standing along the Kali Nadi situated outside the watershed boundary.
(b) Fodder- Villagers do not have any significant dependency on forest based fodder as these resources are not available in the forests.
Labour Requirement-
Labour requirement was found to be the maximum during Oct.-Nov., when the harvesting of Kharif and sowing of Rabi crops are done simultaneously. The crucial periods are March/April coinciding harvesting and threshing of rabi crops and July/August when sowing of Kharif crops take place. Other income generating enterprises having potential during the remaining period can be planned.
64
3.11 Crop Calendar
The present crop calendar in the watershed comprise of fallow-maize, fallow-wheat, bajra-wheat, bajra-mustard, Barley-wheat, Barley-mustard, Jowar-wheat, Jowar-mustard, Potato Ground-Nut Fallow-mustard is the most prevailing crop rotations on the agricultural lands both in rain-fed and irrigated conditions in the watershed. Organized vegetable cultivation, fruit plantation and traditional agro-forestry systems are lacking widely in the watershed. The limited vegetable cultivation in the watershed is confined either to kitchen gardens or to the irrigated conditions in a scattered manner on extremely small area with view to meet out the domestic demand for vegetables. The cultivation of cash crops other than the Bajara also lacks in the watershed.
3.11.1Farmer Preferences
Agriculture: Wheat Bajra and Ground-Nut are the most preferred agricultural crop in the watershed followed by Tubacco.
Fruit trees: Mango, Guava, Lasoda
Fooder Trees: Farmers also do not have any preferred fodder tree in the watershed in spite of fact that watershed falls in semi arid tract.
The marketing facilities, lack of follow up of modern scientific package of practices of crops having potential in the watershed, socio-economical factors etc were found to be most important factors deciding the preferences of farmers pertaining to selection and cultivation of agricultural crops, fruits, MPTs or other fodder trees in the watershed.
65
3.12 Land Holdings
Majority of the watershed farmers is in category of marginal (< 1 ha) and small (1-2 ha). These small land holding are further scattered in different places which makes cultivation very difficult. Which are illustrated as below? There are 3576 marginal, 1112 small and 750 large farmers in the project area.

3.13 SCIENTIFIC PLANNING:
I) CLUSTER APPROACH
This envisages a broader vision of Geo-hydrological unit which involves treating a cluster of micro-watershed. District Mainpuri (IWMP-I) project is located in Kisni Block is a cluster of seven micro-watersheds.
3.14 BASE LINE SURVEY
To access the impact of any watershed development programme a detailed baseline survey has to be conducted. This acts a benchmark for any intervention during and post implementation of any development programme. A detailed baseline survey was undertaken which involved household census survey, Bio-physical survey and Village level data collection from Censex Data.
Household census survey includes a detailed questionnaire which was been filled by visiting each and every household in the village. This gave in the details of the demographic profile of the village, the literacy percentage, SC/ST population, number of BPL household, cattle population, net consumption rate in the village, average milk production of the cattle and various schemes running and their benefits. Bio-physical survey was undertaken to identify various natural resources available in the village. It included the soil typology, well in the area, crop taken in the field, Cropping pattern, fertilizer used and various sources of irrigation in the field.
3.15 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL (PRA)
The past experience of watershed has given tremendous input to focus on creating accountability of the stakeholders towards the programme. This has created an emphasis to include all the stakeholder communities and their local and indigenous Technological Knowledge (ITK) while planning for any activity. Participatory approach provides a new path for planning, implementing, monitoring and post- withdrawal activities with a complete accountability of the stakeholders. Various PRA techniques like resource mapping, social mapping, and season calendars were used to understand the physical and social orientation of the village in general and watershed in specific.
These tools put the villagers in ease than the complicated questionnaires. Various tools like Matrix ranking, Venn Diagram were used to identify various local vegetations (apt for afforestation), Fodders crops , various institution and their significance in the life of the farmers.
67
3.15.1 USE OF GIS AND REMOTE SENSING FOR PLANNING
Use of various high science tools has been promoted at various stages of watershed development.
a) PRIORITIZATION
Geographical Information System (GIS) has been used for prioritization process. Various layer maps were created like Geo-
morphological, Soil, BPL Population, SC/ST population, Ground water Status, Drinking water situation Slope percent. These were all
given proper weightage according to the DoLR specification. This helped in prioritization of various watershed areas.
b) PLANNING
A action plan matrix was formulated by State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) taking into account various features like the slope
percent, soil Depth, Soil Texture, Soil erosion in the area for wasteland, forest land and agricultural land. Global positioning System
(GPS) was used to identify each and every water conservation structures available in the project area. This was used to create a map.
Contour Map of vertical interval of 1 meter at a scale of 1:4000 was used for identifying various locations for soil and water
conservation structures.
3.15.2 HYDROLOGICAL MODELLING
Hydrology modelling technique was used for locating drainage, stream length, flow direction, sink, Flow accumulation. This
model overlaid over cadastral map to calculate the catchment area of each structures like the check dam etc. This has helped to
remove the human error which generally occurs while calculating the catchment area of a check dam.

3.17 Fodder Plants
Farmers escape themselves for making any provision regarding the fodder on own level, in the watershed.
The marketing facilities, modern scientific package from G.O. or other resources, cropping potential in the watershed, socio-economical factors
etc are found to be most important factors deciding the preferences of farmers pertaining to the selection and cultivation of agricultural crops, fruits, or
fodder trees in the watershed. Though area has good number of agro-forestry (field bund and intercropping) having equiptulyptus and popular as cash
plantation but there is not fodder tree in the local tree. However following tree have some liking specially in common wasteland of the village.

3.18 Integrated and Participatory Planning & Development
The watershed management plan is primarily a land use plan, which will take following shape after development.
Introduction and Activities for Proposed Land Use
Watershed management plan for Arind watershed is proposed with specific objectives of food efficiency and income and employment generation with environmental security. In plan preparation due importance is given to topology, land suitability, irrigation potentiality, prevailing forming systems, micro-farming situation, farmers preferences and priorities along with economic and environmental securities, crop and tree selection and area distribution is done as per farmers priorities revealed through PRA exercise. In addition to improvement in the land use, there will be increase in crop yield which will satisfy the food requirement of the people in the project area.

4.2 General Comments and Recommendations for Rainfed Agriculture
The reduction in yield or failure of crops due to Agriculture draught and loam soil with low water holding capacity and growing of high water
requiring crops namely Sugarcane is affecting soil productivity of the area. The improved technology of rainfed Agriculture and watershed bases is only
solution of this problem. The droughts do not have much effect due to high water table and presence of progressive farmers.
4.2.1 Comments
1- Crop production and livestock rearing contribute 80% to the animal fodder and failure of rains caused distress.
2- Climatic variability has increased frequency of extreme weather events, risk and vulnerability.
3- Moderate to severe metrological drought due to rainfall deficit was analyzed.
4- Synergies of forest, wasteland, non-arable, arable land, rearing of animals, Micro-enterprising equity and enabling institutions may be optimized
in the watershed management programme.
5- Surface water resources are least developed in the area.
6- Improving water use efficiency by upgrading the systems should be high priority.
7- Hybrids of Jowar, input intensive new varieties of pulses, oil seed, public distribution system, neglect of yanks, dug-wells and installing of tube-
wells have altered traditional coping systems and increased risks, distress and vulnerability to droughts.
8- Horticulture is another important option to diversify income, employment, risks and vulnerability to rainfall uncertainties.
9- Citrus (Nimbu), Phalsa, and Jack fruit also have potentials of diversifying risks, distress and vulnerability.
10- Forest and scrublands have opportunities to improve productivity and other services of land cover.
11- Construction of water harvesting structures in forest can improve supplies of water for wild like and downstream agriculture.
12- More than 80% of all category farmers normally take produce to the market, 50% sales being in regulated market.
Recommendations
a- Medium term
1- Desilting, renovation, repairs of tanks, checkdams, deepening and recharging of dug-well may be taken up.
2- Creation of fodder and feed block banks should be immediate priority.
98
3- Deworming, Vaccination and other health measures are being recommended.
4- Mineral mixture should supplement the feed to prevent loss in fertility during drought.
5- There is a scope to improve efficiency of artificial insemination (AI) ervices.
6- Naturally growing Traditional drought hardy land races of citrus, Amla, Karounda and custard apple can be top worked with improved varieties
detailed in the text to enhance their value.
7- Rainwater conservation in trenches, planting of indigenous fruits, fodder trees, shrubs, grasses, pasture legumes (Stylosanthes hamata) and
promoting cut and carry system of grasses in place of grazing can improve functions and community service of the forest land.
8- Waving of interest, a part or whole of principal or deferred re-payment should be inbuilt into the loaning process to maintain credit eligibility of
the farmers.
9- Integrated participatory management of inputs, natural resources, social capital and innovative institutions is recommended.
10- Digging of farm ponds and new open wells can also yield quick result and provide employment.
11- Extra short duration crops and varieties given in the text can reduce vulnerability to drought and arrangement of their seed bank is suggested.
12- Normal, medium, short and extra short duration crops and varieties are listed to match with the length of growing period and amount of rainfall
while preparing crop contingency plans.
b- Long term
1. Long term strategy consists of professionally designed integrated participatory treatment of watershed form ridge to valley systems. Treatment of forest, non-arable and arable land should be unified into a common plan.
2. About 3-6% of net sown area of Project is irrigated with poor and erratic supplies. Ground water over utilization is predominant and open dug-wells provide much needed but non-dependable equity. Recharging of open dug-wells can yield quick result.
3. Surface and soil profile water storage may be promoted as new tub wells and dug wells are not allowed.
4. In situ conservation of rainwater, contour cultivation, sowing on ridge or raised productivity by 18-22% at reduced risk.
5. Seed multiplication and creation of seed banks of dry land crops is least priority of private sector and public sector should be geared up.
6. Seed replacement rate of pulses, oil seed and cereals with latest improved varieties may be doubled.
7. There is 25-35% yield gap and several suggestions on rotation, seed banks, marketing, intensification or diversification are made.
8. Intensification of the existing major four livestock production system has been recommended.
9. Goat rearing especially of Barberi is most economical.
10. Liquidation of animal assets is a normal practice of coping with drought. Providing consumption credit at reasonable interest can avoid distress sale of animal.

4.3 Engineering measures for soil conversation
Engineering measures are proposed to conserve soil and Water, slope management, safe disposal of excess water reclamation of waste land etc. Biological measures and engineering measures are complimentary and supplementary to each other Biological measures, which are protective and many times productive and long lasting need support of engineering measures for their establishment in the beginning of hazardous slopes and problems. The engineering measures are needed in the bank of Arind River which has created lot of damage during the year 2010 record braking flood.
Improvement of fields and terraces
Tube well irrigated field are generally in good shape and need little or no treatment. The cultivated area need following treatments.
(A) Treatment of terraces
1. Leveling & bunding for mild correction. 2. Rejuvenation – leveling bunding of slopping land with sand deposit and improvement of risers. 3. Remodeling – highly deshaped, eroded and degraded fields need drastic leveling, bunding , stone/ soil risers with sodding or use area for horticulture or agri-
horti system,
(B) Treatment of fields
1. Leveling and bunding of irrigated field. 2. Smoothing of sloppy fields and bunding. 3. Packing and sodding of bunds and plantation of M.P.T. 4. Spill ways for safe disposal of excess water from the field to the drain.
Gully plugs and spillways
They are designed considering water discharge and cross section of gully and elevation difference Gully plugs may be temporary, semi- permanent and permanent types. Cemented gully plugs may act as water harvesting, structure. Limited structures have been proposed in eroding gullies considering constraints of funds. Different gully plugs and spillways are constructed according to their suitability for the location as given below.
(A)Temporary gully control structure
(i) One row or single row wooden post check dam (ii) Two row or double row wooden post check dam filled with brush wood (iii) Two row or double row wooden post check dam filled with boulders (iv) Woven wire – wooden post check dam (v) Loose boulder check dam (vi) Sand filled plastic bag check dam (vii) Wooden plank- post check dam

Bio-engineering measures
Staggered contour trenches are of multipurpose for erosion control, biomass production, Soil profile and ground water recharge and sedimentation of
reservoirs. Graded bunds and trenches are also used diversion of flow and drainage of water logged areas.
Bio – engineering measures for degraded land (Land slide, drain, terraces, Gully) highly degraded and hazardous lands namely landslides, riverbed and
banks and gullies need a good and suitable mix of engineering measures for such spots having various degrees and types of problems as are present in few lands
slopes of the area.
Gullied land of the projects
There are few gullies and few villages along the river which are originating from erodible sandy soil deposited on the surface and reducing the water holding
capacity and productivity of the land. The total area under gullied land is about 1-2% area. These gullies need an urgently the suitable bio-engineering measures in the
drainage line catchment as well as command area. The catchment of reserved forest may be treated with water storage structure namely Staggered counter Trenches,
ponds, conservation ditches bunds by forest department and area should be well vegetative using hardy tree, bushes and grass species for reducing run off and increasing
time of concentration. Drain may be treated with gully plugs, water harvesting check dams and retention wall and spurs along the banks of the gully. These gully should
also be well vegetated by growing water and erosion resistant species of multipurpose trees bushes and grasses. The water storage check dams will be a very suitable
cheap and locally available irrigation source.

4.4 HORTICULTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR WATERSHED MANAGEMENT
The project area very prosperous in horticulture (field boundary and inter cropping) and horti-agri system. There should be good examples of two to three tier of horticulture system having cultivation of citrus under mango trees. However the horticulture department may try three tier systems with the following trees.
1. Ginger/Turmeric-Citrus-Mango2. Ginger/Turmeric-Citrus-Mango} Karonda on orchard boundary as
productive and protective fence
The in situ water harvesting techniques should be used for growing trees in such a way that each tree has its own micro catchment area. The success of the conservation of horticulture entirely depends on the selection of economically viable hardy varieties of fruit crops resistant to moisture stress or drought and other adverse climate conditions. The fruit crops selected for degraded lands must be such that their maximum growth take place during the period of maximum water availability in the soil and should have low demand.
The main constraints which restrict development of the horticulture land use in degraded lands are enumerated below:
Constraints in rainfed Horticulture Adoption without tube wells.
(a) Basic constraints
1- Lack of suitable agro-techniques for degraded lands 2- Lack of trained resource persons 3- Inadequate dissemination of the technologies 4- Lack of community approach 5- High biotic interference 6- Lack of infrastructure including marketing.
(b) Soil constraints
1- Poor nutrient status of the soil 2- Physical impediment 3- Moisture stress.
(c) Plant related constraints
1- Poorly survival zone 2- Problem of plant establishment 3- Physiological disorders 4- Fruit drop and poor productivity 5- Incidence of insects-pests.
However, apart from the above mentioned constraints, the major bottleneck in horticulture development are poor technological advancements, high initial establishment cost, high input demand, timely operation and seasonal shortage of labours, etc.
Concepts and Advantages of Conservation Horticulture in wasteland
The project area has network of rainfed and irrigated orchard and agri-horty system. Conservation horticulture or horticulture land use based on soil and water
conservation principle is a suitable alternative for utilization and management of land under rain fed conditions. Thus horticulture development in watershed
106
management appears to be the most appropriate technique for sustained productivity as well as for restoration of degraded lands. In fact, horticulture system meets all the
basic needs-food, fruits, fodder, fuel and timber besides, providing employment and sustaining a number of products for industries.
The fruit trees grown with crops can provide fuel from pruned shoots and dried branches, leaf fodder for animals and leaf litter that can be utilized as mulch
material and organic matter the leaf litter of deciduous fruit trees not only protects the top soil from the impact of raindrops but also improve soil structure, reduces
evapo-transpiration, increases infiltration and add to the nutrient status of soil. Therefore conservation based horticulture land use system assumes great significance as
fruit trees on degraded lands provide higher returns and offer alternative opportunity in non-arable areas where cropping may not be possible. Rainfed and eroded sand
covered area needs planting of seedling at a deeper depths having soil with higher water holding capacity.
1- Selection of Suitable Fruits variety:-
For the success of conservation horticulture, selection of hardy varieties resistant to diseases and pests and use of local or other hardy root stocks for raising fruit-
trees is of great importance. The major part of the reproductive cycle is. Period from flowering to fruiting must also fall during maximum water availability period and
the root ripening must be completed before the onset of dry summer (April-May).
Ber, Guava, Karonda, Bel, Amla, Lemon, and Mango etc. are the plants which fulfill this requirement and all these fruit plants are most suitable for West U.P.
region under rainfed condition. The project area mainly mango and peach plantation with intercropping.
2- Planting Techniques:-
For degraded lands, pits should be dug of 1m x 1m x 1m size, the excavated soil is mixed with Farmyard Manure (FYM) @ 5-10kg/pit with doses of potash and
phosphorous and some insecticide / pesticide (numicide / aldrex) for prevention of white ant. Planting of the fruits plants should be done with the onset of monsoon.
3-Use of Root Stokes:-
Budding and grafting on the wild root stock gives benefit of the establishment root and in turn provides better quality fruits with high field potential. For
example, Ziziphus Mauritian, a wild ber can be successful budded with scion of improved cultivars, this practice is only successful where sizable patch of wild root stock
is available. The budded/grafted stock needs intensive management as it is required to be protected from the wild animals, birds, insects, pests etc. The wild root stock
develops efficient tap root to provide moisture and nutrients to the scion. Amla and Bel are other examples of raising the improved cultivation the wild root stock.
4-In Situ Water Harvesting:-
Since on sandy soil, runoff water is considerably poor, therefore, it should be harvested and used. The run off can be utilized for growing fruit plants in such a
way that each tree in the established plants is at the time of fruit setting and fruiting. Moisture available at this critical period improves the fruit yield.
107
Runoff water will be harvested and stored in tanks during the rains. The stored water will be utilized at the time when the fruit trees show moisture stress during
dry months. Counter trenches will dug between the rows of fruit trees because this is effective in conserving moisture and providing soil erosion. The tube well irrigated
area has more then 20% land under mango and peach orchard.
5-Mulching:-
Mulching is practiced to conserve moisture. It prevents the loss of moisture by evaporation and improve water intake by the soils. Various organic (Straw, hay,
manure, tree leaves, dry wads) material are used for mulching. Use of plastic mulch has been taken in rain fed and dry farming conditions to increase the productivity by
minimizing evapo-transpiration losses.
6-Drip Irrigation:-
Drip irrigation saves water by 40 to 70 percent and two to three times more area can be irrigated with the same amount of available water. It has the advantages
that it ensures uniform distribution of water, provides perfect control over water application and minimizing the losses during convergence and seepage. The
demonstration can help and multiply the system specially in sandy area as Sardar and Jatt of the progressive farmer.
7- Dry Land Horticulture:-
In the selected area about 400 ha. land is planned for horticulture and agro horticulture. Species like amla, guava, ber, bel, lemon will be planted at suitable site
in the watershed.
108
4.5 Horticulture Department
Traditionally Ber, Amla, Karounda, Custard Apple, Jack fruit, Mango, Bael and citrus growing on the private and common lands are very
common.
In the selected watershed area in district Mainpuri cabbage is the main crop of vegetable on commercial basis.
West U.P. region also has possibility of cultivating drought tolerant tomatoes like Arka Vikas (Selection-22) and rainfed onions provided there is
proper marketing and processing facilities. Moringa Mango and ginger are other possibilities.

4.6 Demonstration of Agro-Horticulture & Drought Resistant Technology
District Mainpuri is situated in West U.P. region where there is scarcity of water in pockets only and in summer temperature rises up to 45
causing upper layer of fields dry and therefore mortality rate of plants is very high. Farmers usually like to grow grain and sugarcane crops only. The
production of crops decreases below the tree. Some important economical irrigation system is illustrated as below.
Using Plastic Drum of 20 Liters
It is important to promote moisturisation in root zone of the plants. In this process plastic drums with full of water is used. Mainly crops roots go
in to the soil up to 4"-5" in cereal crops and 6"-9" in pulses. Using plastic drums the plants will be planted 45-55 cm below the ground level which is
below the root zone of crops. Therefore trees will not able to take nutrients from upper layer of fields and there will no effect of plants on crops.
In summer season up to 1 to 1.50m depth of soil becomes dry causes more mortality rate of plants, using drums plants are planted below 50-60
cm from ground level and in rainy and winter season up to February roots of plants goes below 2.10m below where moisture will be available and plants
will be safe in summer also. Using barbed wire fencing the plants will be protected against grazing.
Therefore, it is hoped that farmers will adapt this procedure for Agro-forestry and will become prosperous.

INSTALATION OF PVC PIPE
PVC Pipe 10Cm in diameter and length 1.2 m
Filler in PVC pipe Stone then gravel then sand
Filler in pit Scraped top soil+FYM
111
Installation of PVC pipe Famers were told to dig pits at the marked location with dimension 0.75 m x 0.75 m x 0.75 and fill with scraped soil + FYM amendment. The PVC pipes were
inserted inside the pit at the adjoining of seedling/sapling before planting and the pipe was filled with stone/sand, then this pipe was removed. This hole provided sufficient moisture around root zone for proper growth and development of the plant. It also helped in reducing moisture losses from evaporation.
PITCHER IRRIGATION SALIENT FEATURES
A mud pitcher or desired capacity with a small hole at bottom just sufficient to accommodate a rope is taken. The rope with a knot at one end passes thought the hole so that water in very small quantities drips down and makes the soil wet. The roots of the plants draw water from the wet soil. To prevent evaporation the top of the pitcher is covered.
SPECIFICATIONS
1- A pitcher (Usually earthen) of required capacity is lowered down a pit made for the purpose at a small distance from the plant with covered top. 2- A rope (with a knot at one end inside the pitcher to keep the rope in position and control the dripping of water)of about 350mm length is used to give controlled
supply of water to the soil near the plant. A small vertical hole should badge below the pitcher to accommodate the rope

4.7 Live Stock Management & Dairy Development Work
4.7.1 Livestock Management
Four major livestock production system have been observed in the region i.e. Free Range Grazing system, mixed system, Extensive Stall fed system and
intensive Stall fed system. Goats and sheep are regular grazing cattle while buffalo and cows are stalled and grazing only in harvested field after rabi.
Daily requirement of concentrate, green and dry fodder
i- Migration of the animals to higher Himalayas or other hills. ii- Resorting to alternate day watering to Buffalo, cow, Sheep and Goats. iii- Avoiding long distance grazing as tired animals need more and frequent watering and feeding. iv- Since stall feeding adversely impacts the breeding efficiency in case of Sheep, therefore Sheep should always be resorted to at least partial natural grazing. v- Periodic health checks up of all animals. For all major diseases including drought related diseases. vi- Special care is required for productive, lactating and pregnant animals. vii- Forest departments may be roped in to raise indigenous grasses on the fringe forest and adjoining lands under the JFM programme to provide fodder for the
cattle to stall feed them.
4.6.3 Fodder Bank
Unlike food/grain the fodder is very difficult to transport or import during drought and deaths of cattle are inevitable. The fodder bank created for distributed of fodder during drought maintenance of village fodder farm controlled grazing of grass lands and distribution of fodder seeds is important. It is advisable to create fodder bank at block level. The sum of Rs.3.5 lakh is needed to produce 2700q fodder sufficient to feed 100 adult animal and 50 calves.
Advantages
The importance of a fodder bank can be well understood. The fodder banks will provide much needed relief and self-reliance to poor in the village especially in drought condition. The advantages are:
� It will reduce migration during drought condition. � Farmers can purchase and sale of fodder at village, thus doing away with costs incurred by them to carry out these transactions at the city market. � It can reduce in overall market prices of fodder during the lean Season. � Ensure availability of fodder during the lean season at affordable and reasonable prices. � Reduced district sale of cattle due to non-availability and/or non affordability of fodder. � Higher income for the poor as cattle will have enough fodder even during the lean season.
Increase employment opportunities at the village level associated with the sale, purchase and storage of fodder.
115
4.7.4 Establishment of Goat Units for S.H.G.’s formed
District Mainpuri is situated in West U.P. region where the number of sheep is very less and they are small in nature. Goat population is appreciable and in fact, both are the major source of livelihood for poor people of the district.
In the state, an average 16 kg of meat is obtained from a goat, if they are dewormmed twice in the year, there would be increment of 4 kg consequently in meat on an average of the state benefiting the farmers.
Deworming and vitamins, mineral- supplement to the goats shall enhance their productivity and also improve anti-body response and protection level through vaccination, More productivity and assured health and low mortality shall result into adoption of more farmers to goat farming with the formation of more S.H.G.’s and in turn availability of goats for processing units. Goat excreta shall be of immense help in enrichment of soil fertility.
25 Goat Units are proposed in I.W.M.P. Ist Project for S.H.G. One unit constituting 20 goats and 2 buck will be distributed to one S.H.G. A register of S.H.G. will be maintained by Secretary of S.H.G. in the supervision of W.D.T. member. The details of beneficiaries of S.H.G. including the breed
of goat reared, breeding and feeding status, deworming status, deaths, post mortem conducted claim settlement and working status of unit will be maintained in the register.
Preferences shall be given in consecutive years in purchasing the goats and bucks for new units, from old units for which database maintained shall be of use and it should be assured by buy back arrangement.
116
4.8 STRATEGY/ OUTCOMES
Milk Collection centers, Transport & Marketing
The business man will automatically enter into area with their milk tanker and there will not be any difficulty of milk collection. In their absence, the project will form a cooperative society having facilities of milk collection, alternatively, milk can be processed to Mawa and Ghee which can be stored in farmer’s house and marketed by society on convenient date with higher income and employment generation.
Wool production
Attempts will be made that efficient rearing sheep and goat may take place on place on common land. The small cattle may not cause biotic interferences on foot hills. The watershed has got collection, weaving and marketing facilities of wool by local cottage industries. The involvement of ladies will be ensured in knitting of wool garments by distributing thread making and knitting manually operated machines. A small practical training will also be arranged by the project.
SHG
The attempts will he made to constitute SHG of milk production in the area with necessary technical administrative and admissible financial help by the project. Loan of about Rs. 10000.00 (Ten thousand only) for the purchase of one high yielding cow or buffalo will be arranged for each member of group from government /cooperative bank of the locality the banks showed their consent.
117
VILLAGE INDUSTRRIES
Poultry
The villagers are already acquainted with the use & importance of poultry, as many villagers are having 5 to 10 birds for their own use. This village industry can be promoted in the following ways;
• Supply of high yielding birds and cock for pedigree improvement
• Introduction of poultry feed
• Preventive measures for disease Ranikhet etc., hygiene, vaccination and regular visit & checkup by Doctor
• Demonstration & maintenance of recommended house for the birds
• Formation of user groups, storage & marketing of birds and eggs as per aforesaid guidelines for animal husbandry.
Mushroom
Mushroom cultivation is a newly adopted industry and increasing at a faster rate in India. There is also a good market at national and international level. This
industry can be introduced and promoted with the help of ladies & part time work of school children by forming user groups. Processing, storage, transportation, and marketing of the produce will be arranged by the project. The demonstrations, short training and visit of the workers & the SHG will be conducted by WDT before introducing the cultivation.
Apiculture (Bee keeping)
Bee keeping is highly profitable perennial & regular production, cost effective, labour & time saving. The honey is medicinal food of nutritive value. Bees help
in transportation of pollen gains and fertilization and finally increase production, specially in cross pollinated crops namely sunflower, onion, radish and mustard, Honey production in hilly areas is comparatively high due to plenty flora available in sequence, while bees kept on sugar produce poor quality & costly honey. The user group of ladies and individual families after short training will be benefitted with this business .The project will make provision of boxes, beehives, storage and marketing of honey.
Sericulture
Silk sarees and other garments are famous but sericulture is laogging behind especially on hill in the watershed, however alluvial plain by the. Side of river is good for mulberry as agro forestry as well block plantation for sericulture. PRA exercise shared the interest of sericulture by users group of women. Mulberry as MPT can be raised on terrace risers and panchayat land as agro forestry. In case poor growth/failure of sericulture this will provide fodder and fuel and protection to riser against erosions.
Fish culture Duckery
Ponds are the multipurpose reservoirs of farmers and being maintained for 25 to 30 different uses. There are many ponds in the watershed, mainly found in
villages of watersheds, situated by the side of River. Fish culture is a non monitory business and fetches good income, tasty and nutritive food. Few farmers showed their interest to dig out pond in their land with the priority of fishery. Few community ponds have water through out the year and said to be having continuous filling through under ground spring and they are ideal for CPR management and auction money would be the income of community namely Watershed commettee (Registered body) and may be spent for common interest or utilities of village. The state fishery department may utilize these ponds after de-silting by PIA for promotion of their activity and benefit to villagers & village society. Fishery and Duckery is a good combination for their food adjustment.

The cultivation of crops, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and MPT is suffering due to non availability of healthy seedlings of good varieties at the right time, KVK (ICAR), can plan for raising commercial nurseries in the watershed and its research farm at. Few self help groups can raise nursery as an additional income generation source KVK has planned to procure & supply foundation seeds to the SHG. The poly houses are meant for raising nursery, vegetation, mushroom during off season and adverse weather conditions.
Silvipastoral, Social Forestry, Van Panchayat, Joint Forest Management & Medicinal Plant
This is a workable and profitable systems for landless having animals.
Medicinal plants
Medicinal plants are the best examples of multipurpose trees, bushes, and grasses. They are hardy to grow and can serve as biological fence (agro-forestry), good surface cover against erosion, high market and regular economic return. The medicinal, perfumery, soap, cosmetic, and aroma of herbal origin are preferred throughout the
world. Ayurvedic medicines are getting repeated importance.

6.3 Employment
Employment has always been a problem in the village. The principal occupations of the people are dry land agriculture, animal
husbandry and casual labour work. However, rain fall being very limited and erratic, agriculture suffers, i.e. at best they can take only a
single crop, which keeps them partially engaged for about 4 months. Lack of fodder makes animal husbandry very difficult too. So, animal
husbandry does not keep them engaged full time. Thus the people mainly depend upon casual labour, either in the village itself or outside it.
The project plans for creation of both wage employment and self employment opportunities. Wage employment would be created by
engaging people in watershed physical works like construction of earthen bunds, farm bunds, village pond, plantation, etc. Self employment
would be created by providing the people with cash support in the form of direct livelihood activities like agriculture, animal husbandry and
enterprise development.

6.4. Migration
Limited agriculture results in very little fodder availability in the locality. On account of agriculture and animal husbandry providing
only part time employment for some part of the year, the people migrate for a better half of the year for wage labour.
Employment opportunities in the local area as mentioned above will ensure lessening seasonal migration from the area.

6.5 Ground Water Table Rainfall has been scanty but demand for ground water has been increasing all the time. The ground water table thus has depleted over
the years. Presently it stands at 18.00 ft.
Proper water harvesting structures and percolation tanks would go a long way in increasing water table depth from 18.00ft in the pre-
project level to 15.00ft in the post project period.

6.6 DRINKING WATER
The villages has 10 dug wells on which they depend for their drinking water. Many an effort at finding sweet water at different other
places in the same village has failed. India marka hand pump is constituted by State Govt. for avaibility of proper drinking water, due to lack
of sufficient govt. handpumps people have their own.
As a result of the watershed activities, it is expected that the quantity and quality of drinking water would improve.

6.8 LIVESTOCK
The village has quite a good of livestock population. These include cows, bullocks, buffaloes, goats, sheep and camels. The
interventions like provision of good quality cows and buffaloes, the establishment of a fodder bank and other such related activities would
spur up the dairy development in the village. It is expected that the post project period would see a substantial increase in livestock
population and yield from them.

7-QUALITY & SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES
7.1-PLANS FOR MONITORING & EVAUATION
A Web-based GIS System is being developed for monitoring and evaluating the project in its planning & implementation phases. The
system would be available on a public domain and can be accessed by all the stakeholders of the project. The system shows the entire state of
Uttar Pradesh and all of those areas selected over the next 20 years. Filtering allows the user to zoom onto one particular project. Details
related to soil type, Land-use classification, inhabitation etc., can be obtained village-wise. Furthermore, survey-number wise details related
to ownership, irrigation source, yield etc., can also be accessed by the users of the system. This system is being used for pooling up the
details obtained from the DPR. In other words, the DPR is made available online in the form of a database which will help the stakeholders
know areas of importance viz., already treated areas/historical works in the area, proposed areas for treatment etc., for further treatment and
planning. The system would also show the satellite imageries of various years from the project inception stage to the project closing stages.
This allows the user to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment and thereby plan corrective measures for the project area. The system
would serve as an aiding tool to the planners and evaluators for judging the efficacy of the project.
Yet another component of the Web-based GIS system is the Mobile based Monitoring & Evaluation System, which will help the
ground staff alias WDTs (Watershed Development Team) to transmit information from the ground level to the central server. Also, any
higher-up official in charge of the project can obtain information regarding the project area on their mobile phone by means of an SMS. The
system works in the following manner. The WDT equipped with a GPS instrument marks the latitude-longitude information of various
treatment areas during the DPR. The probable sites are then transferred onto the central server. During the works phase, any progress in the
treatment areas is reported to the server by means of an SMS by the WDT. Similarly, any nodal officer or higher-up official can view the
progress in a project by means of summarized reports generated over frequent periods of time.
166
7.2 PLANS FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
The Project management of any watershed programme is very important. It mainly depends upon the community organisation and the
village level institutes.In Mainpuri, watershed committee and various user groups have been formulated for post project operation and
maintenance of assets created during project period. Major emphasis will be on equity and sustainable benefit of the project even after
implementation stage. A proper link-up will be built during project period with various institutes and capacity building organisation. They
will act as a major kingpin during post implementation for scaling up the successful experience during project.
7.3 WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT FUND:
The major source of financial assistance after post implementation period is watershed Development Fund. The contribution of it will
comes mainly fund the following:
7.4 USER CHARGES:
Various user groups will be formed in village. These user groups will collect user charges according to the designated rules formed during the formation of user group. These funds will be transferred to the WDF funds as per these formulated rules. The secretary of watershed committee (WC) shall maintain the records of the following.
