PROJECT BACKGROUND 



1.1 Project Background 

Verad (IWMP-5) project is located in Bhanvad Taluka, Jamnagar District of Gujarat state. The project consists of eight micro 

watersheds with 5G1A3a3f, 5G1A3a3g, 5G1A3a3p, 5G1A3a3q, 5G1A3a3k, 5G1A3a2l, 5G1A4c2p, 5G1A4c1c as their respective codes. The 

total project area of the watershed is about 7453.6Ha, of which 4953.68 Ha is proposed to be treated under Integrated Watershed Management 

Programme (IWMP). 

The nearest town is Bhanvad which is about 8 Km from project area and well connected by pucca road (Bhanvad Jamjodhpur state 

highway). The Vrad Project consists of four villages the detail information of all villages is mentioned in this report. Ahir, Darbar, Bharvad, 

Bramhin and Harijan communities are the primary inhabitants of the projects. The livelihood of these people is primarily based on rainfed 

agriculture, wage labour, livestock, goat and sheep rearing.

Need of Watershed Development Programme 

Typically in our country, rain falls very intensely within few hours, within a few days, within a few months of every year. The number of 

rainy days does not average more than 40-50 in most part of the country. The challenge is to find ways of using this water where it falls. The aim 

of watershed development is to stop and conserve the rainfall where it falls, so that it can be used for longer period of time. The balanced 

ecosystem and human system are vital indicators of a sustainable environment and better quality of human life. In rural areas, livelihood and 

natural resources such as land, water, vegetation and livestock are inter-linked. India’s national economy is dependent on agriculture and the 

magnificence of its natural resources is legendary. As 70% of our cultivated land fall under the rain-fed areas, Watershed Management is one of 

the critical factors for improving agricultural production. The natural resource base on which existence of living beings depend-soil, water and 

vegetation is under degradation. Most of the arid and semi-arid regions have concentrations of eroded and degraded natural resources. Loss of 

vegetal cover, followed by soil degradation through erosion, has resulted in lands lacking in water as well as solid nutrients. 

Watershed Development Programme is selected on the basis of thirteen parameter 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 the degraded land, Productivity potential of the land, continuity of another watershed that has already 

developed/treated, Cluster Approach for hilly terrain. Based on these thirteen parameter a composite ranking was been given to Vinjalpar 

project as given in table no. 3. 

The total number of families under BPL is 195, which is less than 20 per cent of total households of the villages. Hence a score of 2.5 is 

allotted. The percentage of schedule castes in the village is about 10 per cent to the total population; hence a score of 5 is allotted. 



Rain fed agriculture forms the primary occupation of the village due to the fact that ground water is saline 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, 3 and 5 are allotted respectively. 

Since the rainfall received is erratic and irregular, the moisture index is low and the area is classified under DDP block. Drinking water 

is problematic in the village. Majority of land is degraded due to inherent rainfall and due to no soil conservation structures in the project area. 

The soil is very permeable and production of the land can be significantly enriched with the availability of timely irrigation.

Project Implementing Agency 

The Project Implementing Agency (PIA) is being selected by an appropriate mechanism by State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA). PIAs would be 

responsible for implementation of watershed project. These PIAs may include relevant line departments, autonomous organizations under State/ 

Central Governments, Government Institutes/ Research bodies, Intermediate Panchayats, Voluntary Organizations (VOs).The PIA of Verad 

watershed Project (IWMP-V ) is District Watershed Development Unit, Jamnagar 

District Watershed Development Unit, Jamnagar. 

The organization and its objectives: 

The District Watershed Development Unit (DWDU), Jamnagar is a district level nodal agency and was established on 13th May 2008 to oversee 

for the smooth implementation of watershed projects in the district. The District Development Officer (DDO) is the chairman of the DWDU. 

The DWDU have dedicated and experience staffs comprising one Project Manager (deputation from Gujarat Forest Department) a Technical 

Expert (on contract basis) and multidisciplinary team of agriculture expert, community mobilization expert, Civil engineer, MIS coordinator, 

system analyst, surveyor, accountant and computer operator are recruited. The DWDU Jamnagar has its own rented office at Sardar Patel 

Bhavan, Near Rameshwar Mandir, Jamnagar . 

The objective of the DWDU Jamnagar are supervising, planning, implementing, documenting and promoting watershed development projects 

and related development activities in the district. Moreover, the DWDU Jamnagar will work as a PIA for some IWMP projects. 



Programmes/projects running in the district 

At present six IWMP projects have been sanctioned by Government of India for the Jamnagar district. The entry point activities of all the six 

IWMP projects have identified by the respective PIAs in the district. Jamnagar Forest Division as PIA for the four projects (IWMP-1, 2, 4 & 6) 

and DWDU-self is as PIA for the two projects (IWMP-3 & 5). 

Apart from the running six IWMP projects, total 614 pre-Hariyali & Hariyali projects (DDP,State watershed, EAS, IWDP) has been sanctioned 

and out of that 126 projects are completed and 488 projects are still running in the district. The DWDU Jamnagar is also monitoring a central 

government sponsored scheme on "Artificial Recharge of Groundwater through Dugwells" in the district.

CHAPTER - 3 

Basic Information of Project Area 









3.1 Basic Information of Project Area 

Project area is located in the district of Jamnagar about 75 Kms. from district headquarters. The project area is characterized by high 

temperature and low varying rainfall. The proposed watershed project has a land area of 7453.6 ha of which 4953.68 ha will be treated. The 

villages are characterized by undulating land, soft to hard rocky strata with varying slopes. The drainage density is medium and there is 

excessive runoff of water causing high soil erosion. The soil and underground water is potable but have shortage of drinking water in summer. 

People have to commute around 0.5-1 km to fetch drinking water from panchayat water supply during shortage period. 

3.1.1 Land use pattern: 

The net geographical area of Vinjalpar Project is about 7453.6 Ha and there is nly 10 ha forest area in Shiva village. Total land under agriculture 

use is 71 % which is 5283Ha. And out of agriculture 65 % is under rain fed. Also most of the area is under west land which is 2153 Ha. High 

dependable of agriculture area under reinfed causes low production.

3.1.3 Land and Agriculture 

71 percent of the total agriculture area is dependent on rainfall. The rainfall is highly scanty which has resulted in recurrent phenomenon of 

drought two to three years. The average rainfall of this area is about 535.7 mm (from past ten year data) with a highest intensity of 110 mm (in 

a day). This uneven distribution is leading to runoff of soil every year to the streams and rivulets. 

Lack of surface water source and high salinity of ground water has decreased sufficient base for irrigation as well as for drinking purpose. The 

average land holding is about 2.5 ha of which the land holding is ranging from 1 to 4 Ha. Lack of irrigation source forces the majority of these 

farmers to migrate to ensure their livelihood. This affects directly the demographic profile of the village. The major crops cultivated by the 

farmers are cotton, groundnut and Bajra (Pearl millet) in the village. Some of the farmers take up rainfed castor if the rains are good. The land 

conservation measures such as farm pond, earthen bunds and farm bunds in the area will help them to take up a rabi crop of mustard or cumin 

and vegetables in the residual moisture.

3.1.4 Livestock 

The project area has about 266 cows and 721 buffalos out of which majority are of local breed, there are 746 bullock, 287 goats and 131 sheeps. 

Majority of Rabari and Bharwad community depends on goat and sheep rearing for their livelihood. Lack of rain and surface water has reduced 

the fodder and pasture area for their animals. This leads to heavy migration to other parts of the state with their herds of goats and sheep. The 

productivity of the dairy animals is so low that there is no dairy cooperative in the village.

Migration Pattern: Migrate during summer season to various parts of the state like Gandhidam, Chirai, Dantiwada, Bhuj and Suarashtra as daily 

wages agricultural labours and construction workers. Lack of fodder availability and grazing land for smaller ruminant also forces these farmers 

to migrate to other places.

Infrastructure facilities: Verad watershed is well connected with Bhanvad Taluka with pucca roads. The village has electricity connecting under 

Jyothigram yogana of Gujarat government. Nearly 80 per cent of households in the village have their personal electric meters. All villages has 

a primary school with all facilities and only Verad village has high school and other villages have to go Bhanvad for high school and college. 



The village do not have a Primary Health Centre for which villagers has to go to Bhanvad which is about 15 Km. All villages have individual 

Panchayat office. There is no proper state transport facility to the village as there is only a bus while rest of the village travels by a local vehicle 

called Chakda in emergency situation.

3.4 Comparative data of the crop productivity of the area: project area vs. District vs. State vs. Country vs. world 

Introduction: 

The purpose of this study is to provide a comparative analysis of productivity of Verad project area with reference to world, India, 

Gujarat, Jamnagar district and project area. "The term productivity in general means the total output per unit of factor input. For example land 

productivity means output per hectare of land. Productivity is an average and is calculated by dividing the total output of a particular crop by the 

total cultivated area under that crop." “The term productivity in general means the total output per unit of factor input. For example land 

productivity means output per hectare of land. Productivity is an average and is calculated by dividing the total output of a particular crop by the 

total cultivated area under that crop.” 

Data are made available by the Baseline survey (project area), Handbook of Agriculture, ICAR publication 2006(For Gujarat and India), 

and Final district plan (DAP) of Dept. of Agriculture (for Jamnagar). The results indicate that project area has very low productivity compared 

to world, India, Gujarat and Jamnagar. The productivity is low not only because that the land is unproductive or the farmer’s lack the skills to 

manage their crop but also due lack to of source of irrigation and scarcity of rain. The world productivity of groundnut is 1550 kg/ha. In India it 

is grown in about 8 million hectors with production of 8.06 million ton and productivity of 1032 kg/ha. Gujarat alone produces 39% of total 

groundnut of our country from 25% of the area with a productivity of about 1561 kg/ha. As compare to Gujarat and India, Jamnagar district has 

comparatively good productivity1625 kg/ha. The Vetad project area has only 850 kg/ha productivity. It is very low compare to district, state, 

India and World.

The cultivation of cotton & its manufactures into textiles has been practiced in India since pre historic times. India ranks 1 st in area and 4 th in 

production. The world productivity of lint cotton is 700 kg/ha. India grows cotton in 9.5 million hectors with production of 5.2 million tons and 

productivity of 503 kg/ha. Gujarat has 2.51 million hectors area under cotton, which produces 1.87 million tons of cotton with productivity of 

746 kg/ha. As compared to India & Gujarat, Jamnagar district has good productivity 750 kg/ha. But the Verad project area has only 480 kg/ha.

The Verad project area has low productivity because of the following reasons: 

i) Full dependence on monsoon: 

Vinjalpar village is dependent on monsoon. Water is essential input in agriculture. Due to the absence of proper irrigation facility, 80% 

of the total cultivated area depends on the uncertain monsoon. Therefore, the suceess or failure of the monsoon determines the success or 

failure of agriculture production.The rainfall is unreliable due to two factors: untimely and inadequate. 

ii) Low use of fertilizer per unit cropped area: 

Farmers do not use sufficient fertilizer due to lack of water, scarcity of fertilizer in market and insufficient money for fertilizer. Many a 

times they don’t get fertilizer at the right time. 

iii) Traditional farming methods: 

This also leads to low productivity. There is a lot of ignorance about the use of new farming methods and technologies such as multiple 

cropping. They don’t use FYM and other input in a proper way; that is why they don’t get 100% output. So these factors contribute to 

low productivity. 

iv) Lack of adequate farm machinery: 

Even today a large number of farmers in Vinjalpar use wooden ploughs and bullocks. They don’t have adequate machinery like seed drill. 

So, old machineries take more time in tillage practices. 

v) Lack of finances for farmers: 

In Vinjalpar most of the farmers are marginal and small. They do not have enough money to buy good quality seeds, machinery and 

other inputs. 

vi) Lack of good quality seeds and fertilizers: 

Good quality seed, fertilizer and pesticide are important factor in agriculture productivity. The use of good quality leads to higher land 

productivity. In Vinjalpar, however, there are two limitations in the use of fertilizer. First these fertilizers are most useful in irrigated 

condition. But in Vinjalpar 80 per cent of land depend on rainfall. In Vinjalpar mostly farmers use nitrogenous fertilizers especially urea. 



vii) 

This has resulted in disproportionate use of fertilizer depleting the quality of land. 

Lack of other facilities such as storage and marketing: 

5-10% of agriculture product damage after harvesting due to scarcity of proper storage and proper market for sale. So he sells to local 

traders at the low prices. Farmers mainly face proper means of transportation and roads. And second problem is farmers don’t have 

proper storage facilities. 



CHAPTER - 4 

WATERSHED ACTIVITIES 







Watershed Activities 

Watershed management as a strategy has been adapted by Government of India especially in the rainfed regions of semi-arid tropics. These 

regions are characterized by low and undependable rain, low soil fertility, poor infrastructure development, low literacy and high incidence of 

migration. The inheritant low fertility of crops results in high productivity of crops which have a very low biological efficiency. 

Several studies have identified that there is a dire need of a systematic and scientific approach to deal with watershed development. The common 

guidelines generate a fresh and flexible framework for the next generation watershed development. 

4.1 Scientific Planning : 

1. Cluster Approach 

This envisages a broader vision of Geo-hydrological unit which involves treating a cluster of micro-watershed. The Verad Project consists of 

eight micro- watersheds namely 5G1A3a3f, 5G1A3a3g, 5G1A3a3p, 5G1A3a3q, 5G1A3a3k, 5G1A3a2l, 5G1A4c2p, 5G1A4c1c as their 

respective codes. Further Verad watershed project is in continuation with other watershed projects namely Vansjaliya and Motikhokhari 

Projects this gives an element of continuation of the programme. 

2. Base line Survey 

To access the impact of any watershed development programme a detailed baseline survey has to be conducted. This acts a benchmark for any 

intervention during and post implementation of any development programme. A detailed baseline survey has been undertaken which involved 

household census survey, Bio-physical survey and Village level data collection from Talati -cum mantri. Household census survey includes a 

detailed questionnaire which has been filled by visiting each and every house-hold in the village. This provide the details of the demographic 

profile of the village, the literacy percentage, SC/ST population, number of BPL household, cattle population, net consumption rate in the 

village, average milk production of the cattle, social and economic condition of villagers and various schemes running and their benefits. 

Bio-physical survey has been undertaken to identify various natural resources available in the village. It included the soil typology, well in the 

area, crop taken in the field, Cropping pattern, fertilizer used and various sources of irrigation in the field. 



3. Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) 

The PRA tools like Focussed Group Discussion (FGD) were used to gather information from rural areas where watershed programme is going to 

be implemented. The past experience of watershed has given tremendous input to focus on creating accountability of the stakeholders towards 

the programme. This has created an emphasis to include all the stakeholder communities and their local and Indigenous Technological 

Knowledge (ITK) while planning for any activity. Participatory approach provides a new path for planning, implementing, monitoring and postwithdrawal 

activities with a complete accountability of the stakeholders. This decrease the efforts of the ground staff i.e WDT members and 

involves more of villagers as implementers. Various PRA techniques like resource mapping, social mapping, season calendars were used to 

understand the physical and social orientation of the village in general and watershed in specific. These tools put the villagers in ease than the 

complicated questionnaires. Various tools like Matrix ranking, Venn diagram were used to identify various local vegetations (apt for 

afforestation), Fodders crops, various institutions and their significance in the life of the farmers. 

4. Use of GIS and Remote sensing for planning 

Use of various high science tools has been promoted at various stages of watershed development. 

a) Prioritization 

Geographical Information System (GIS) has been used for prioritization process. Various layer maps were created like Geo-morphological, Soil, 

BPL Population, SC/ST population, Ground water Status, Drinking water situation Slope percent. These were all given proper weightages 

according to the DoLR specification. This helped in prioritization of various watershed areas. 



b) Planning 

A action plan matrix was been formulated by State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) taking into account various features like the slope percent, soil 

Depth, Soil Texture, Soil erosion in the area for wasteland, forest land and agricultural land. 

Global positioning System (GPS) was used to identify each and every water conservation structures available in the project area. This will be 

used to create a map. Contour Map of vertical interval of 1 meter at a scale of 1:8000 was used for identifying various location specific for soil 

and water conservation structures. 

c) Hydrological modelling 

Hydrology modelling technique was been used for locating drainage, stream length, flow direction, sink, Flow accumulation. This model 

overlaid over cadastral map hel to calculate the catchment area of each structures like the check dam etc. This has helped to remove the human 

error which generally occurring while calculating the catchment area of a check dam.

4.2 Institution Building 

1. Watershed Committee (WC) 

It is a committee that is constituted by Gram Sabha to implement the watershed project with technical support of WDT in the village. This 

committee was registered under society Registration Act 1860. The Gram sabha of the village selects the chairman of the watershed committee 

with the secretary who will be a paid functionary. A watershed Committee was formed accordingly in Bhinda village. Capacity building training 

to the watershed committee was given by WDT member. 

The watershed committee has a pivotal during various processes like the PRA and over planning of various points.

2. Self Help Group 

Self Help Groups are motivated, small homogenous group organized together through highly successful of credit and thrift activities. Self help 

group initiative especially for women help to uplift their livelihood. Generally self help group includes landless and marginal sized farm women, 

BPL household, SC/ST women. 

SHG initiative in Vinjalpar project was being organized by having a focused group discussion between various homogenous communities of 

women based on their livelihood separately. Each group discussed their basic problems with their facilitators. The major problems identified 

are: 

a) Lack of proper credit facilities due to low intervention of formal financial credit instititutes. 

b) Excessive exploitation of weaker section by money lenders 

c) Lack of attitude of saving among poor people due to complex and rigid conventional financial institution structures. 

d) Lack of small micro-loans without collaterals and high interest rates. 

e) Lack of knowledge on credit, Thrift activity and banking. 

f ) Less knowledge of record keeping due to lack of guidance and training 

g) There is no specific goal and vigion 

With a view point of these problems it was planned to organize these women to a into a group consisting of 12 to 20 in each groups and it was 

also proposed to have 8 groups. 

With a detailed discussion with some of the local NGOs working in the area like SEW A, it was planned to have some capacity building training 



regarding SHG activities. It was also proposed to have some livelihood activities which will promote women empowerment this included spices 

packing, embroidery activities with forward and backward linkage. This will ultimately lead into better human development in the village.

3. User Group: 

(in) MF 

(iv) LF 

These are homogeneous groups of persons having landholding within the watershed area. They are normally formed to manage an activity or 

asset on a long term basis. The user group collect user charges from their members. Some of the points which were considered while forming a 

user group in Vinjalpar were : 

1) In case of a checkdam all the beneficiaries of the individual check dam where involved as user group members. 

2] In case of Fodder bank all the individual beneficiaries of animal husbandry are considered as potential members. 

3) Membership was on voluntary and democratic. 

Focused group discussion was conducted to between the user groups to discuss the above conditions and to select potentia members. It was 

advocated that each group to formulate certain internal rules and have a feeling of ownership with community spirit.

fiv) LF 

EPA activities are certain important works which are in urgent demand of the local community. This helps in establishment of credibility of 

watershed Development Team (WDT). It also acts as a rapport building activity of the village community. A group Discussion was conducted 

with watershed Development Committee regarding the EPA activity, it was conveyed to the amount of Rs. 28.62 Lakh was allotted for EPA 

activity, which was 4 per cent of total allocated budget. The villagers discussed various activities which they felt is important but after a brief 

discussion it was conveyed to them that only those activities can taken, which revive the common natural resources. It was also taken into 

priority that there should be an instrument of convergence which will result in sustainability of activities.

4.3.2. Watershed Development Works: 

Watershed development works is to be done during implementation phase of watershed. Treatments begin from the highest point of the watershed and 

move progressively downwards (ridge to valley), starting with the smallest stream and culminating in the main river of the watershed. Work is 

location-specific, varying according to slope and geology as also the size of the stream being treated. The aim is to weave interventions into the 

contours of nature, not to seek mastery over it. A net budget of 50 percent is allotted for this work. 

Ridge Area Treatment Plans 

In a watershed, the slopes falling from the ridge to the beginning of the plains are called ridge area. It is very important to treat the higher reaches of 

the ridge has this is where the major water resources originate. This involves mainly highly and forest region in the watershed. Various watershed 

managing structures should be build to arrest the erosion and degradation of forest with grasses in upper ridges. 

1. Boulder Checks 

2. Gabions3 

3. Grass seedling/planatation 


Boulder checks or gully plugs are loose rock dams made on small drainage lines or seasonal streams which have a catchment area of less 

than 50 ha. It is adopted where the water velocity is high and where basically stone available with in radius of 100-150 m from the site. The main aim 



of constructing loose boulder checks is to reduce the velocity of water flowing through the drainage line. By reducing the velocity of runoff, boulder 

checks help in: 

1. Reducing soil erosion; 

2. Trapping silt which slows the rate of siltation in water harvesting structures in the lower reaches of the watershed. 

3. Creating a hydraulic head locally which enhances infiltration of surface runoff into the groundwater system; and 

4. Increasing the duration of flow in the drainage line. Therefore, the capacity of the water harvesting structures created downstream on the drainage line 

is utilized more fully as they get many more refills. 

2. Gabions 

Gabion structures are rock and wire dams constructed across drainage lines with a catchment area of 50-500 ha. They are also constructed to 

reinforce highly erodible stream embankments. The main aim of constructing gabion structures is to reduce the velocity of water flowing through the 

drainage line. By reducing the velocity of runoff, gabion structures help in 

1. Reduction in soil erosion 

2. Trapping silt, which reduces the rate of siltation in water harvesting structures in the lower reaches of the watershed. 

3. Increasing recharge of groundwater and 

4. Increasing the duration of flow in the drainage line. Therefore, the capacity of the water harvesting structures created downstream on the 

drainage line is utilized more fully as they get many more refills. 

Drainage line Treatment and water harvesting: 

The second tier treatment is the slope treatment. This is generally agricultural land or waste lands. These are generally water conservation or 

surface water storage structures. These being highly labour intensive will involve more of manual labour so schemes like National Rural 

Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) can be taken. Following structures has been proposed in the project villages. 

1. Check dams/Causeway cum check dams 

2. Waste Weir 



1. Check dams 

Check dams are constructed across small streams having slope the selected should have sufficient thickness of permeable bed or weathered 

formation to facilitate recharge of stored water within short span of time. The water stored in these structures is mostly confined to stream 

course and the height is normally less than 2m and excess water is allowed to flow over the wall in order to avoid scouring from excess runoff 

water cushions are provided at downstream side. To harness the maximum run off in the stream series of such check dams are to be constructed 

to have recharge on regional scale in project villages. 

2. Waste weirs 

These are constructed for giving a safe passage to the excess runoff from the field and also store some amount of water in the field. The water 

stored in these structures is mostly confined in field and height is normally less than 0. 5 mt. and excess water is allowed to flow over the wall. 

Plains or Flat level/Field level: 

1. Farm pond 

2. Irrigation/Percolation dam 

3. Farm bund 

4. Trench excavation and Refilling for reducing salinity ingress 

5. Afforestation 

1) Farm Pond: 

There is very little qualitative difference between a pond/ tank, which usually serves the population of a village, and farm pond, which serves an 

individual agricultural field. Farms ponds greatly vary in size depending upon the rainfall. These have only a few meters of length and width and 

are built across the flow path of natural drainage channels. Surplus water from one pond spills over to a lower pond. In some cases a series of 

farm ponds are built on one single stream. Each pond caters to the irrigation needs of one farm and also augments ground water recharge. 

Percolation Dam: Percolation dams are constructed for recharging groundwater. Such structures are usually made on the upper part of the 

catchment area. Water stored here percolates to wells and tubewells located in the lower part of the catchment. Such dams can also be made in 



the immediate upstream portion of wells and tubewells. Depending on the capacity of the dam and duration of water storage, the dam can have 

secondary benefits (such as pisciculture) that are vital for the livelihood security of marginal farmers and landless labourers. 

2) Irrigation/Percolation dam 

a) Irrigation Dam: Such dams can be constructed to meet two different kinds of demands. 

of storing water during the rainy season to be used for irrigation in the post-monsoon period. 

of providing protective irrigation during dry spells within the rainy season. Most parts of India typically receive rainfall between 

June and September, very intensely within a few hours and a few days. The number of rainy days does not average more than 

40-50. Moreover, rains are extremely erratic, often characterized by late onset and early withdrawal. Prolonged dry spells during 

the rainy season, resulting in agricultural droughts, are also frequent. Hence, the kharif crop needs to be drought-proofed through 

'protective' irrigation, applied to overcome accumulated soil moisture deficits within the rainy season. Such structures are 

especially important in areas which are poor in groundwater resources and which do not have access to canal irrigation. Such 

areas form about half of India's agricultural area. 

b). Percolation Tank: Percolation dams are constructed for recharging groundwater. Such structures are usually made on the upper part of the 

catchment area. Water stored here percolates to wells and tube wells located in the lower part of the catchment. Such dams can also be made in 

the immediate upstream portion of wells and tube wells. Depending on the capacity of the dam and duration of water storage, the dam can have 


3) Farm bund 

Farm bunds are constructed on agricultural land with the aim of arresting soil erosion and improving the soil moisture profile. Ideally, bunds on 

farms should be made on the contour line. But this creates several problems for farmers. Contour bunds divide the field into irregular sections. In 

such a situation, it becomes inconvenient to maneuver bullocks for operations such as ploughing and line-sowing. 



4) Afforestation 

Emphasis is placed on maximizing the use of available land and resources with high yield tree species. Trees can either be of similar species or 

mixed in a manner that will result in a stand or forest. Depending on the climate, geographical layout of the area and the soil conditions, trees that 

have the greatest growth potential are selected like Babool, Neem, Sesame and Ailanthus.

2. Staggered contour Trenches 

Over time, experience of watershed programs has shown that it is better to stagger the digging of contour trenches. This is because it has been 

found that invariably errors have been made in contouring over long distances. If the contour trench is not level and by mistake sloped, then 

water starts to flow from the high point to low point, cutting a path and increasing soil erosion. Therefore instead of making trenches continuous 

they should be made in staggered, discontinuous manner. Trenches are any form of depression or micro pit constructed over the land surface in 

order to prevent soil erosion and to absorb rainwater in non arable lands. Trenches are constructed along the contours [called contour trenches) 

on hill slopes above 15% with vegetative supports for forestry and horticulture land uses. Contour trenches are used both on hill slopes as well as 

on degraded and barren waste lands for soil and moisture conservation and afforestation purposes. The trenches break the slope and reduce the 

velocity of surface runoff. It can be used in all slopes irrespective of rainfall conditions (i.e. in both high and low rainfall conditions), varying 

soil properties. For vegetative supports forage grasses as well as economic trees can be planted. The trenches were working as silt trap earlier. 

Periodical maintenance by way of unearthing of the trenches and depositing on the downhill side ought to be given due attention by the 

beneficiaries themselves.

Livelihood Intervention 

Production system -1: Potato wafers production 

Introduction: 

In Gujarat, Banaskatha, Vadodara, Kheda, Mehasana, Jamnagar and Kachha districts have good production of Potato crop. Now a days potato 

wafers become popular in cities as well as in rural areas. During the production season of potato it costs around Rs 5000 to 6000/- per tone. In 

this business raw material of potato and vegetative oil is most important products. 

Procedure for potato wafers: 

1. Raw material: Potato should be of same size, mostly round and it should not have any disease or any whole on it. Material must be neat 

2. and clean. 

3. Classification: Grading should be done by manually or by machine to get single type of disease less potato. 

4. Cleaning: As per need potato should be washed in running water to clean dust on it. 

5. Removal of upper surface: The upper surface may get remove by manually or by machine, it need to maintain proper and continuous 

pressure of water. Afeter this process potato should be sink in water having mixture of 0.1 % of Sodium sulfide or Sodium meta 

bisulfide for further procedure. 

6. Trimming: Once again material is to be scanned for removal of bad material by manually, it is known as trimming 

7. Slicing: Slice of potato is to be done by using slicer or striper or if man power is more then it may be done by local instrument also. 

8. Watering: After slice it should be washed 2 -3 times by clean water and then remove starch on it by putting it over …… 



9. Hydro Extraction : To remove extra amount of water, Hydro extraction of slice is to be done by putting it over cloths on open space. 

10. Frying: Hydro extracted and dry potato slices is to be fried in good vegetative oil

Production system -2: Papad Making 

Introduction 

In India papad is one of the delicious snack in daily food. It is consumed at homes, restaurants, hotels, etc. Papad is a traditional item 

consumed in all functions. It is mainly prepared by woman so such kind of activity helps in woman empowerment. Traditionally this activity 

was confined to household papad making but in view of increasing demand and availability of machinery (mechanisation) it has now been 

developed in cottage and small scale sector. 

Market 

Field survey findings indicated that papad industry has good potential in big centers in cities like Bhanvad and Bhanvad talukas of 

Jamnagar district. There is a good demand for papads because it is a food product and commonly consumed commodity in all households and 

hotels. Women entrepreneurs can gainfully take up this papad unit in their houses but proper packing and distribution network is necessary to 

sell in bulk quantities. 

Manufacturing Process 

Generally weighed quantity of floor is taken in a mixer. A solution of common salt and carbonates is added in requisite quantity of water 

and the contents are kneaded at maximum speed to get a homogenous lump of the dough. After resting the dough for 30 minutes, it is divided 

into balls. These are pressed into circular discs. Corn starch can be used as dusting material to prevent stickiness. The papads are usually dried. 

After drying, it is packed in various size packing. Lot of 25 or 50 papads is then packed in polythene bags. Papad can be manufactured from 

different varieties of pulses or there could be a combination of pulses as well. Ingredients required for Papad making are Black gram, oil, sodium 

carbonate, flour of Arhar dal. 



Production Capacity 

Monthly approximately 250 kg papad can be produced.

value added products like bouquets, garlands, floral baskets, floral concretes, pot-pour and oils. It has proved to be a highly profitable 

agro-business generating maximum returns per unit area. Flowers like Rose, Marigold can be profitably cultivated. Rose and marigold fetch 

very high prices in the local market. This can be a good alternative and economic crop for the small stakeholders. The package of practices for 

commercial cultivation of these crops has been standardized and technology has been transferred. 

a) Marigold 

Marigold gained popularity amongst farmer and flower dealers on account of its easy culture, wide adaptability, attractive colour, shape, size 

and good keeping quality. Marigold is valued loose flower for making garlands. Besides, it is used as trap crop in the borders to attract insects 

attacking the main crop. Three weeks old seedlings are planted which grows upto a height of 75-90 cm at maturity with deep orange or lemon 

yellow flowers. It is propagated through seeds and cuttings. For better growth and improvement, application of NPK @80:40:80kg/ha is 

recommended. Flowers are plucked when they have attained the full size and it should be done in cool hours of the day either in the evening or 

morning. Good varieties of marigold are Namdhari marigold, First Lady and Pusa Narangi. Pinching of terminal leaves was found to 

significantly increase growth and yield in Pusa Basanti and Pusa Narangi gaindha. Pusa Narangi is mostly preferred due to higher flower 

production.

Climate: Cold and dry atmosphere is best suited for rose planting. Rose can be planted in hot and moist enviroment also but requires more scope 

of disease. 

Soil: Soil with good drain, fertile and medium black soil is suited to rose planting. It can be sown in sandy soil also, but required more compost 

manure. 

Sometimes due to poor drain capacity of black soil, water logging damages rose plants. By improving soil drain capacity, rose plants can 

be sown in heavy black soil also. Rose plants require more sunlight. so it should be sown in place which is open to sunlight. 

Sowing: Digging pits of size 60x60x60 cm in size and it should be open to sunlight upto 10 to 15 days. In the dig soil 6 to 8 kg cow dung manure 

should be mixed. Moreover, 50gm Urea, 100 Gram super phosphate and 50 gram Murate of potash should be mixed. If fungi is there, 3 to 5 gm 

BHC should also be mixed. 



Time of sowing: Roses can be sown throughout the year. But it should not be sown in heavy rainfall season like July-August and also not in 

April-May.

Production System-:Brick Production 

Introduction: 



The fundamentals of brick manufacturing have not changed over time. However, technological advancements have made contemporary brick 

plants substantially more efficient and have improved the overall quality of the products. A more complete knowledge of raw materials and their 

properties, better control of firing, improved kiln designs and more advanced mechanization have all contributed to advancing the brick 

industry. 

Raw Material: 

Clay is one of the most abundant natural mineral materials on earth. For brick manufacturing, clay must possess some specific properties and 

characteristics. Such clays must have plasticity, which permits them to be shaped or molded when mixed with water; they must have sufficient 

wet and air-dried strength to maintain their shape after forming. Also, when subjected to appropriate temperatures, the clay particles must fuse 

together. 

Manufacturing: 

Although the basic principles of manufacture are fairly uniform, individual manufacturing plants tailor their production to fit their particular raw 

materials and operation. Essentially, brick are produced by mixing ground clay with water, forming the clay into the desired shape, and drying 

and firing. In ancient times, all molding was performed by hand. However, since the invention of brick-making machines during the latter part of 

the 19 th century, the majority of brick produced in the United States have been machine made.

Technical Support/Assistance: 

To ensure proper technical support for fodder bank and smooth functioning of activities the required technical assistance may be taken from 

Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Dept. of Agriculture, Dairy and DWDU. 



Advantages: 

The importance of a fodder bank can be well understood. The fodder banks will provide much needed relief and self-reliance to poor in 

the village especially in drought condition. Specifically, the advantages are:- 

> It will reduce migration during drought condition. 

> Farmers can purchase and sale of fodder at village level, thus doing away with costs incurred by them to carry out these 

transactions at the city market. 

> It can reduce in overall market prices of fodder during the lean season. 

> Ensure availability of fodder during the lean season at affordable and reasonable prices. 

> Reduced distress sale of cattle due to non -availability and / or non-affordability of fodder. 

> Higher incomes for the poor as cattle will have enough fodder even during the lean season 

> Increase employment opportunities at the village level associated with the sale, purchase and storage of fodder. 



Production System - 5 : Vermicomposting unit 

Introduction: 

The process of composting crop residues using earthworms comprise spreading the agricultural wastes and cow dung in layers as 

1.5 m wide and 0.9 m high beds of required length. Earthworms are introduced in between the layers @ 350 worms per m 3 of bed 

volume. The beds are maintained at about 40 - 50% moisture content and a temperature of 20 - 30° C by sprinkling water over the 

beds. The earthworms being voracious eaters consume the biodegradable matter and give out a part of the matter as excreta or 

vermi-castings. The vermi-casting containing nutrients are rich manure for the plants. 

About The Worms 

Eisenia fetida, Eudrilus eugeniae, and Perionyx excavatius are some of the species for rearing to convert organic wastes into manure. 

The worms feed on any biodegradable matter ranging from coir waste to kitchen garbage and Vermicomposting units are ideally suited to 

locations / units with generation of considerable quantities of organic wastes. One earthworm reaching reproductive age of about six weeks lays 

one egg capsule (containing 7 embryos) every 7 - 10 days. Three to seven worms emerge out of each capsule. Thus, the multiplication of worms 

under optimum growth conditions is very fast. The worms live for about 2 years. Fully grown worms could be separated and dried in an oven to 

make 'worm meal' which is a rich source of protein (70%) for use in animal feed. 

Location 

Vinjalpar Project has lots of animals so it can become good vermi compost center as well as good source of livelihood. Vermicompost is 

very suitable for fruit, flower and vegetable as well as cereal crops. It increases quality and quantity of product in per unit area. 



Use 

Put lack irrigation arid desert so chemical is not advisable so to increate nutritive value of soil and available farmyard manure 

Vermi compost has more nutrient compare to other manures and fertilizer so by the use of vermi compost we can reduce use of chemical 

fertilizer. Vermi compost not only supply nutrient but also improve quantity of hormones for plant growth, improves the soil structure 

leading to increase in water and nutrient holding capacities of soil. 

Components of A Commercial Unit 

Sheds 

Shed should be at such place so that it will be protected from both heat and rain water. Shed should be atleast 3 m wide and 10 m 

length. We can make it by the use of precast concrete pillars as it is available in the market so it reduces the cost and time. It will prevent 

wetting of beds due to rain on a windy day. 

Vermi-beds 

Scientific bed side is 75 cm - 90 cm thick depending on the provision of filter for drainage of excess water. The whole bed area 

should be above the ground. The bed should have a uniform height over the entire width to the extent possible to avoid low production 

owing to low bed volumes. The proper bed width should not be more that 1.5 m to allow easy access to the centre of the bed. And bed 

length should be 8 m and 1 m height. 



Land 

About 30 square meter of land will be required to set up a vermin compost production unit. It should have a good watering arrangement 

and other equipments as required because moisture is very essential for vermin compost production. Site selection should be such that it is 

already near or under greenery so that it helps in maintaining the moisture. We can take land from Gram panchayat and it can be taken on lease 

of at least 10-15 years. 

Seed Stock 

This is very important thing because worms multiply at the rate of 350 worms per m 3 of bed space over a period of 6 month to a year. 

Fencing 

The entire area has to be fenced to prevent the animals and other unwanted elements. These could be estimated based on the length 

of the periphery of the farm. 

Water Supply System 

We have to maintain always 50-60 % moisture content, there is need to plan for a water source, lifting mechanism and a system of 

conveying and applying the water to the vermi-beds. Initially for 10 days water should be applied regularly by manually to maintain the required 

moisture percentage. 



Machinery 

Farm machinery and implements are required for cutting the raw material in small pieces, conveying shredded raw material to the 

vermi-sheds, loading, unloading, collection of compost, loosening of beds for aeration, shifting of the compost. Costs of providing necessary 

implements and the machinery have to be included in the project cost.

Capacity Building 

Capacity building is a process to strengthen the abilities of people, organizations and systems to make effective and efficient use of resources in 

order to make achieve their own goals on a sustainable basis. Capacity development is the process whereby individuals, groups, and 

organisations enhance their abilities to mobilize and use resources in order to achieve their objectives on a sustainable basis. Efforts to 

strengthen abilities of individuals, groups, and organizations can comprise a combination of (i) human skills development; (ii) changes in 

organisations and networks; and (iii) changes in governance/institutional context. Capacity building is a complex notion – it involves individual 

and organisational learning which builds social capital and trust, develops knowledge, skills and attitudes and when successful creates an 

organizational culture which enables organizations to set objectives, achieve results, solve problems and create adaptive procedures which 

enable it to survive in the long term.

EXPECTED 



Expected Outcomes 

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, rain fall 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.

Drinking water 

The village has two dug wells on which they depend for their drinking water. Many an effort at finding sweet water at different other 

places in the same village has failed. A farmer called Khan bhai has a well in his farm and he allows the villagers to take water from the 

well. There is another well in a common land too; but the water is not as good as the other well. WASMO has constructed a tank to store 

water brought through pipeline from Khan bhai's well. 

As a result of the watershed activities, it is expected that the quantity and quality of drinking water would improve.

Crops 

Agriculture primarily depends upon water; but this is what is lacking in Verad village. The surface water is scanty due to low rainfall and 

ground water is saline, which is unfit for crop production. 

All this can change with the integrated land and water management during the watershed project. The planned earthen bunds would prevent the saline 

water from the Rann of Kutch to mix with the sweet rain water and also help percolate sweet 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.hg

Livestock 

The village has quite a good of livestock population. These include cows, bullocks, buffaloes, goats, sheep and camels. The interventions like 

provision of good quality cows and buffaloes, 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.

QUALITY AND SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES 



Quality and Sustainability Issues 

Plans for Monitoring and Evaluation 

A Web-based CIS System is being developed for monitoring and Evaluatting the project in its planning & implementation phases. 

The system would be available on a public domain and can be accessed by all the stakeholders of the project. The system shows the 

entire state of Gujarat and all of those areas selected over the next 18 years. Filtering allows the user to zoom onto one particular 

project. Details related to soil type, Land-use classification, inhabitation etc., can be obtained village-wise. Furthermore, survey-number 

wise details related to ownership, irrigation source, yield etc., can also be accessed by the users of the system. This system is being used 

for pooling up the details obtained from the DPR. In other words, the DPR is made available online in the form of a database which will 

help the stakeholders know areas of importance viz., already treated areas/historical works in the area, proposed areas for treatment 

etc., for further treatment and planning. The system would also show the satellite imageries of various years from the project inception 

stage to the project closing stages. This allows the user to Evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment and thereby plan corrective 

measures for the project area. The system would serve as an aiding tool to the planners and Evaluators for judging the efficacy of the 

project. 

Yet another component of the Web-based CIS system is the Mobile based Monitoring & Evaluation System, which will help the ground staff 

alias WDTs [Watershed Development Team) to transmit information from the ground level to the central server. Also, any higher-up official in 

charge of the project can obtain information regarding the project area on their mobile phone by means of an SMS. The system works in the 

following manner. The WDT equipped with a GPS instrument marks the latitude-longitude information of various treatment areas during the 

DPR. The probable sites are then transferred onto the central server. During the works phase, any
