PROFILE OF THE WATERSHED PROJECT:
Derajuri (Karbi Anglong IWMP-23) project is located in Karbi Anglong District of Assam. The project is a cluster of
four micro-watersheds with 3B2C1i2b, 3B2C1i1d, 3B2C1i2a and 3B2C1i1c being their respective codes. The total
project area of the watershed is about 3990.0 ha, of which 3438.79 ha has been identified for treatment under
Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) starting year 2013-14.
The nearest town is Hamren, which is located at about 35 Km from Derajuri and is connected by Pucca road. The
project area lies in the edges of Hamren town. The watershed includes 13 villages. The villages are Artu Bonglong
Gaon, Derajuri Killing Gaon, Bilandi Gaon, Dera Arlok Gaon, Thongja Gaon, Ingti Basapo Gaon, Dera Nihang Gaon,
Thervecherop Gaon, Chek Artur Gaon, Kabung Gaon, Barman Pangcho Gaon, Harlongsora Gaon and Waham Langso .
Karbi communities are the primary inhabitants of the villages. The livelihood of the people of the project area is
primarily based on rainfed agriculture, animal husbandry, wage labour, goat and pig rearing. The project area falls
10
under the hilly area according to the classification of ………..(DoLR) of Govt of India.. The villages are very poor on
the border of Nagaon and Karbi Anglong district of Assam. The topography of the area is undulating and primarily with
low top hills in the west and steep hills in the south. The basic project information is presented in Table 1.1

Table No. 1.2 Need and Scope for Watershed Development Watershed Development Programme is prioritized based on the 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 degraded land, Productivity Potential of the land,
Continuity of another watershed that has already developed /treated, Cluster approach for plain or for hilly terrain. The
criteria and weightage for selection of watershed are given in Table 2. Based on these thirteen parameters a composite
ranking was given to Derajuri Watershed project
The total number of BPL families is more than 80 percent of the total households of the village; hence a score of 10 is
allotted. The schedule tribes population in the village is about 100 percent; hence a score of 10 was allotted. Rainfed
agriculture forms the primary occupation of the village due to the fact that ground water is acidic(pH in the range of
…….) and hence unfit for usage. More than 60 per cent of the farmers are small and marginal by nature and the actual
wages earned by the labour is less than the minimum wages. Hence a composite rank of 5 and 10 are allotted
12
respectively.
Since the rainfall received is high and irregular, the moisture index is low and the area is classified under rainfed.
Drinking water is problematic in the village. Majority of land is degraded due to inherent soil loss and degraded land.
The soil is very permeable and production of crop can be significantly enriched with the provision of timely irrigation.
Derajuri watershed falls in continuity with Karbi ……. Cluster approach was followed taking into consideration four
micro-watersheds covering a total area of 3990 Ha. Thus, a cumulative score of 93.0
is given to the watershed.
The cumulative scores of the project area are calculated as per the criteria and scores mentioned in Table 2 . The actual field data were calculated during baseline survey and participatory rural appraisal (PRA) conducted in the area.

Other developmental projects running in the Derajuri village:
The villages proposed to be covered in the project are very backward. Currently, there is no other developmental
projects included under national flagship programmes like Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee
Scheme (MGNREGS), Border Area Development programme (BADP), Nirmal Bharat Abhijan(NBA), Swarnajayanti
Gram Swarojgar Yojana (SGSY), Indira Awas Yojana (IAY).. Backward Region Grant Fund (BRGF). The details are

CHAPTER 2
General Description of Project Area Assam State Soil Conservation Department is the State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) for Integrated Water shed Management
Programme (IWMP) in Assam. The SLNA selects the Project implementing Agency (PIA) by an appropriate mechanism. The PIAs are
responsible for implementation of watershed project. These PIAs may include relevant line departments, autonomous organizations
under state/Central Governments, Government Institutes/ research bodies. The PIA for Derajuri watershed Project is District watershed
development Unit (DWDU), Hamren.
The organization and its objectives:
The District Watershed Development Unit (DWDU, Hamren is a district level watershed agency to oversee the smooth implementation
of watershed projects in the district. The Divisional Officer (DO), Soil Conservation Department is the chairmen of the DWDU. The
DWDU has dedicated and experienced staff comprising one Project Manager (Range Officer, Derajuri Soil Conservation Range), a
technical expert and multidisciplinary team of agriculture expert, community mobilization expert, community mobilization expert and
Data Entry Operator, Civil engineer, MIS coordinator, system analyst, surveyor, and accountant. The objectives of the DWDU, Hamren
are supervision, planning, implementation, documentation and promotion of watershed development projects and related developmental
activities in the district as per guidelines. The DWDU, Hamren also works as a PIA for some IWMP projects.
Programmes/ projects of DWDU, Diphu:
At present 11 IWMP projects have been sanctioned by Government of India for Karbi Angng District. Diphu and Hamren Soil
Conservation Division are the PIAs in the district. The entry point activities of all the eleven IWMP projects have been identified by the
respective PIAs in the district through PRA. Diphu Soil Conservation Division is PIA for 5 projects and Hamren Soil Conservation
Division is the PIA for rest of the two projects.

CHAPTER – 3
BASE LINE INFORMATION OF WATERSHED Derajuri watershed project has a total of 1553 households with a population of 5540 (as per base-line survey ) out of
which 2778 are male and 2762 female. The sex ratio is 1017 female to 1000 male. There are 388 BPL families. The
average family size is 5. The literacy rate is very low i.e, 19.2 percent; male literacy rate is 26.4 per cent (of total
male population) and female literacy rate is very low i.e; 8.25 percent (of total female population).The major castes
in the village are Karbi and all are Schedule Tribes. Majority of population is involved in agriculture and animal
husbandry.
The demographic information of the project area are depicted in Table 3.1

The watershed has 472 cows, 462 buffalos, 1380 goats,1034 poultry and 1090 pigs. Majority of karbi community
depends on goat and pig rearing for their livelihood. Cows and bullocks are of local breed. Lack of rain and surface
water has reduced the fodder and pasture availability for their animals. This leads to heavy migration to other parts
of the state with their herds of goats and sheep. Milk production is so low that there is no dairy cooperative in the

Migration Pattern:
People migrate during summer season to different parts of the state like Nagaon, Lanka,Hamren and Diphu as daily
wagers, agricultural labours and construction workers. Lack of fodder availability and grazing land for smaller
ruminant force these people to migrate to other places.
About 17% of population are migrating to other areas in search of livelihood. The details of migration in the project
area are given in Table 3.4

Infrastructure facilities:
Derajuri watershed is well connected with Hamren Sub division with pucca roads. The village has electricity
connectivity of the State Government. Nearly 75 percent of households in the village have their personal electric
meters. Derajuri watershed has 13 primary schools. For middle and higher secondary education, the students have to
go to Hamren which is about 35 kilometers away. This also contributed to lower education level of the people. The
village do not have a Primary Health Center for which villagers have to go to Hamren which is 35 Km. away.

Land use pattern:
The net geographical area of Derajuri watershed is about 3990.0 ha of which 26% is forest area. The forest area is
mainly divided into two parts; one part is hilly while other part plain or gentle slope (0 to 3% slope). About 51.8%
of land is under agriculture which is completely rainfed; mainly a kharif crop is taken. About 39% of the total land
is classified under wasteland of which 60 percent is cultivable and rest is uncultivable and hilly. The land use
pattern of the project area are shown in Table 3.7

CHAPTER – 5
Management/Action Plan
Methodology of plan adopted for Preparation of DPR
a) Awareness generation interventions: Mass Meetings and awareness meetings were organized covering each and
every village under the project area by the Project Implementing Agency.
b) Initial Orientation program: Initial orientation on concept of the watershed, concept of integrated watershed management
programme of the government of India importance of peoples participating in planning, execution and social monitoring of the
programme as well in post project maintenance of the project interventions were clarified to the people of the watershed,
Panchayati raj Institution members, village headman and other peoples representatives.
c) Participatory Rural appraisal: Participatory approach provides a new path for planning, implementing and 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
villages of the project area in general and watershed in specific. These tools put the villagers in this process the
villagers define their problem and prioritized the activities for selecting interventions.
d) Focused Group Discussions: It is a process by which a homogeneity group comes to a platform to discus their issues
and share their issues and share their counter solution to their issues. It may be farmers’ community, women, landless
people, BPL and others. A structured questionnaire was filled and analyzed for Project planning and Implementations.
e) House Hold Survey: To access the impact of any watershed development programme a detailed baseline survey has to be conducted. This acts as benchmark for any intervention during and post implementation of any development programme. A
55
detailed baseline survey was undertaken which involved household survey, bio-physical survey and village level data collection from door to door survey that includes a detailed structured questionnaire which have been filled by surveyor/enumerator by interacting with the household head in the village. This gave in a details of demographic profile, the literacy percentage, S.T/S.C Population, Number of BPL, Cattle population, availability of amenities in the village like drinking water, education , communication banking and marking facilities, income and expenditure pattern of the village as well as of the project area.
f) Technical Survey: A technical survey was undertaken to identify various natural resources available in the village/project area. It included the soil typology, well/ponds etc, crops taken in the field, cropping pattern, fertilizer used, agricultural implements used and various sources of irrigation in the field problem typology of the project area: based upon which the future interventions were planned in consultation with the stakeholders, watershed committees etc.
g) Formation process –Ugs & Watershed Committee:
1. Watershed Committees are formed as per Common Guidelines for Watershed Development 2008 issued by the Government of India by the project Implementing Agency.
2. Users groups (UGs) were indentified during participatory Rural Exercises, gram sabhas, from amongst the stakeholders of the intervention identified.
h) Secondary data collection:
i)Secondary data on satellite imageries were collected and interpretated in GIS environment.
ii) watersheds, Micro Watersheds were delineated
iii) Slope map/ Contour map were prepared with the help of Topo sheets , SRTM data
iv) Climatic data such as Rainfall, Relative Humidity, Maximum and minimum temperature etc were collected for the period from 1-4-2006 to 31-3-11 from the Indian Meteorological Department Government of India.
v) Ground water level, Quality of ground water, Chemical data on shallow aquifers etc were collected from the Central Ground Board, Government of India.
vi) Comprehensive District Agriculture plan (C-DAP) was collected from the District Agriculture office andwas consulted
vii) soil Maps were collected from the National Bureau of Soil Survey and Land Use Planing (NBSSLUP) Jorhat Regional Centre
56
as well data available with District Agriculture office and zonal Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK).
3.Planning Process- Social Economic Survey was conducted in each and every house hold. Detailed Participatory Rural Appraisal exercises were conducted in each village under the project area with the farmers, Watershed Development Team members, Project Implementing Agency, Panchayati Raj Institution member, Public representative and thread bares discussions were held, social mappings were done and problems and resources of the villages were analyzed, recorded the needs and suggestions of the stake holders and accordingly interventions suitable to meet the problem typology were identified.
4. Mapping- Social mapping were done in the PRA exercises. Detailed maps were prepared in GIFS environment on watershed delineation, village boundaries, Land use Land cover maps, Drainage maps, Slope maps, contour maps, Treatment maps etc were prepared GPS locations of identified interventions were marked in maps.
5. Hydro-geological Survey- Hydro geological survey prepared by the central ground water board was consulted.
6. Public- Private partnership- The intervention would be implemented by watershed committee through the users groups. Special attention was given on the weaker section of the society such as land less, women and People below poverty line (BPL)
7. Consolidation & preparation Of DPR document- The Detailed Project Report has been prepared comprising the three phases namely preparatory phase-one year. Work phase three years and the Consolidation phase in one year. Thus the implementation of project would be completed in five years. The year wise phasing of detailed in the chapter of Budgeting and Programme implementation.
8. Approve by Village Level Development Council/ Gram Sabha- Activities proposed by villages/stakeholders during PRA exercises are proposed in the DPR on priority basis and availability of fund.

CHAPTER – 9
EXPECTED OUTCOMES 9.1 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, rainfall 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.
9.1.2. Migration
Low rainfall results in very little fodder availability in the locality. The relatively well off farmers bring fodder from
Diphu (approximately 22 kms away) and Hamren (approximately 35 kms away) collectively; but the resource poor
cannot afford it. 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.
110
Employment opportunities in the local area as mentioned above will ensure lessening seasonal migration from the area.
9.1.3. Ground water table
Rainfall has been scanty but demand for ground water has been increasing all the time. The ground water table thus
depleted over years. Presently it stands at 5.8 m.
Proper water harvesting structures and percolation tanks would go a long way in increasing water table depth from 5.8
m in the pre-project level to 5.3 m in the post project period.
9.1.4 Drinking water
People of the village are dependent on existing dug wells for their drinking water. The existing drinking water sources
are insufficient to cater the need of drinking water. As a result of the watershed activities, it is expected that the
quantity of drinking water would improve.
9.1.5 Crops
Agriculture primarily depends upon water; but this is what is lacking in Derajuri village. The surface water is scanty
due to low rainfall and ground water is not feasible to explore for crop production.
All this can change with the integrated land and water management during the watershed project. The planned check
dams and farm ponds would help percolate water underground, and preserve some moisture in the soil. This will help in
additional area coming under cultivation and increasing productivity too. The farmers can take more than one season of
crops. Different varieties of crops can be taken.
111
9.1.6 Vegetative cover
There is negligible area under tree cover. the village has a forest area of 200 ha. there, not concentrated in any area. It is
planned that 15 ha land to be covered under new plantation.
9.1.7 Livestock
The village has quite good of livestock population. These include pigs, cows, , goats. The interventions like provision
of good quality pigs, goats, cows and 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.
