"The natural resource management in the dry regions imposes challenging pressure on the fragile\r\necosystems, as they are the source of livelihoods of people whose key occupation is agriculture. ICRISAT’s\r\nearlier experiences indicated that in the past, watershed management emphasized soil and water\r\nconservation measures. Lack of holistic approach to natural resource management in conventional\r\nwatersheds has led to the emergence of a new integrated watershed management model. Important\r\ncomponents of this new model are farmer-participatory approach, use of new science tools, knowledgeflow\r\nfrom on-station to on-farm watersheds, holistic systems approach with integrated genetic and natural\r\nresource management (IGNRM) strategy providing site specific solutions, a consortium of institutions for\r\ntechnical backstopping, continuous monitoring and evaluation by the stakeholders, community and\r\nwomen empowerment, and environmental protection. The main features of the consortium approach are\r\ntechnical backstopping by the consortium of multi-institutions, linking strategic and developmental\r\nresearch on farmers’ fields, reducing the lag for transferring results from research fields to farmers’ fields,\r\nempowering the development workers and farmers to manage natural resources sustainably, and\r\nharnessing the strengths of the partners to make a win-win situation for all the partners. The consortium\r\nstrategy has facilitated the exchange of knowledge and technologies amongst the consortium partners,\r\nreduced land degradation, and improved rural livelihoods through increased incomes"^^ .
