of Natural Resources in Watershed","pub","s2.14","","","public",,"paper",,,,"The natural resource management in the dry regions imposes challenging pressure on the fragile
ecosystems, as they are the source of livelihoods of people whose key occupation is agriculture. ICRISAT’s
earlier experiences indicated that in the past, watershed management emphasized soil and water
conservation measures. Lack of holistic approach to natural resource management in conventional
watersheds has led to the emergence of a new integrated watershed management model. Important
components of this new model are farmer-participatory approach, use of new science tools, knowledgeflow
from on-station to on-farm watersheds, holistic systems approach with integrated genetic and natural
resource management (IGNRM) strategy providing site specific solutions, a consortium of institutions for
technical backstopping, continuous monitoring and evaluation by the stakeholders, community and
women empowerment, and environmental protection. The main features of the consortium approach are
technical backstopping by the consortium of multi-institutions, linking strategic and developmental
research on farmers’ fields, reducing the lag for transferring results from research fields to farmers’ fields,
empowering the development workers and farmers to manage natural resources sustainably, and
harnessing the strengths of the partners to make a win-win situation for all the partners. The consortium
strategy has facilitated the exchange of knowledge and technologies amongst the consortium partners,
reduced land degradation, and improved rural livelihoods through increased incomes","2001","published",,,,,,,"218-225",,"Integrated Watershed Management for Land and Water Conservation and Sustainable Agricultural Production in Asia.
