Land
husbandry
Program
- Morning:
- Theoretical
introduction to land husbandry, including fertility management, erosion
control, water conservation, inter-cropping and agroforestry.
- Afternoon:
- Prepare a small plot
on a slope near ADPP for planting Jatropha. Use the A-frame to align water
conservation structures with contours.
Goals
After this day the participants will have
an overview of common land husbandry practises and the reason for practising
them. They will also have tried some of the practises in the field which should
give them a feeling for the time and work required.
