Descriere
A comprehensive presentation of techniques, examples, and case studies on the realization of improved rainfed agriculture yield in semi-arid and dryland areas, this book provides techniques intended to improve the livelihood of many small-scale farmers in developing countries. Methods discussed have recently shown to be successful and economically remunerative in India and in various African countries. The incentive of watershed programs is to increase the return on investment with over 20% for 65% of the projects that are currently underperforming.
