PROJECT BACKGROUND 


1.1 Project Background 

Lakhapat (I.W.M.P-4) project is located in Lakhpat Taluka, Kutch District of Gujarat state. The project is a cluster of nine 

micro-watersheds being 5H2A3###, 5H2A5C1A, 5H2A5C1B, 5H2A5C2A, 5H2A5B1D, 5H2A5B1C, 5H2A5B1A, 5H2A5B1B, 

5H2A4A1B their respective codes. The total project area of the watershed is about 4056.1 hac has been undertaken to be treated 

under Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) starting year 2009-10. 

Lakhpat and Punrajpar two villages are included in this project IWMP-4. The nearest town is Dayapar which is about 24 Km 

from Lakhapat and is well connected by pucca road. The project area lies in the edges of salt deserts of Kutch also known as Ran 

of Kutch. The watershed includes has two village Lakhapat and Punrajpar. Lakhpat village have Muslims, Harijan, Gosai 

(Gaoswami), Thakkar, and punrajpar village have more then 95% community is Darbar. The livelihood of these people is primarily 

based on rain fed agriculture, animal husbandry, wage labour and 44 families doing fishing. 

Lakhpat village is a heritage village. At present Lakhpat has a fort. In princely state time Lakhapat port was doing very well 

business for import and export. At that time Lakhapat was earninig one Lakh cori (Rupees) in a one day. And king was becoming 

lakho pati with Lakhpat village. So In that contact Lakhpat village name fall in its income. The Project area falls under the Desert 

Prone area according to DoLR Classification. It is a very poor and desolate village on the border of India and Pakistan. The stretch 

of unfriendly Ran separates this Indian village from Pakistan. The village of Lakhapat was heavily damaged in a massive earth 

quake on Jan 26, 2001, the epicentre of which was Bhuj (Kutch). 

Kutch is one of the Most Fragile Eco System of the world and Characterized by arid conditions and high-risk environment. It 

has a history of natural calamities, drought being the most common and most severs among them. Such calamities and the 

drought in particular, directly affected the livelihood of the people. These recurring disasters eroded the self sufficiency of the 

region, with the people become more depended on the state.

1.2 Need of Watershed Development Programme 

Watershed Development Programme is prioritised on the basis of thirteen parameters namely Poverty Index, Percentage of 

SC/ ST, Actual wages, Percentage of small and marginal farmers, Ground water status, Moisture Index, Area under rained 

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 plain or for hilly terrain. Based on these thirteen 

parameters a composite ranking was given to Lakhapat Watershed project as given in table no. 2. 

The total number of families under BPL is 13 Lakapat and 8 Punarajpar, which is less than 12 per cent of the total 

households of the village. 125 houses in Lakhpat and 70 houses are in Punrajpar villages. In Lakhpat 101 house of Muslim and 24 

house of Hindu which is out of 125 houses. Rained agriculture forms the primary occupation of the village due to the fact that 

ground water is saline and hence unfit for usage because seashore is one km far from Lakhpat village. 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. 

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 salinity and ingress of salt from Ran. The 

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

watershed falls in continuity with other watershed namely Lakhapat, and Punarajpar. Cluster approach was followed taking into 

consideration nine micro-watersheds covering a total area of 4056.10 hac. Thus a cumulative score of 103.5

CHAPTER – 2 

PROJECT IMPLEMENTING 

AGENCY 


2.1. Project Implementing Agency 

The Project Implementing Agency (PIA) is selected by an appropriate mechanism by Gujarat State Watershed 

Management Agency (GSWMA), the State Level Nodal Agency (SRNA) for Integrated Watershed Management Programme 

(IWMP) in Gujarat. The PIAs are responsible for implementation of watershed project. This PIA may include relevant line 

departments, autonomous organizations under State / Central Governments, Government Institutes / Research bodies, 

Intermediate Panchayats, Voluntary Organizations (VOs).The PIA for Lakhapat watershed Project is District watershed 

development Unit (DWDU), Kutch. 

2.2 About District Watershed Development Unit (DWDU), Kutch-BHUJ 

2.2.1 The organization and its objectives: 

The District Watershed Development Unit (DWDU), Kutch-Bhuj is a district level nodal agency and was established on 1 

April 2008 to oversee the smooth implementation of watershed projects in the district. The District Development Officer (DDO) is 

the chairman of the DWDU. The DWDU has dedicated and experienced staff comprising one Project Manager (deputation from 

Gujarat Forest Department), a technical expert and a multidisciplinary team of agriculture expert, community mobilization expert 

and Data Entry Operator, Civil engineer, MIS coordinator, system analyst, surveyor, and accountant. The objectives of the DWDU, 

Kutch-Bhuj are supervising, planning, implementing, documenting and promoting watershed development projects and related 

developmental activities in the district as per guidelines. The DWDU, Kutch-Bhuj also works as a PIA for some IWMP projects. 


2.2.2 Programmes/projects of DWDU, Kutch-Bhuj: 

At present 18 IWMP projects have been sanctioned by Government of India for Kutch-Bhuj district. The entry point 

activities of all the eighteen IWMP projects have been identified by the respective PIAs in the district. In Kutch-Bhuj Forest Division 

has allotted 14 projects and itself DWDU have 4 projects as per PIA (No.1, 2, 4, 9). 

Apart from the 14 IWMP projects, DWDU Kutch-Bhuj is involved in a total of 735 projects. Out of 735 pre-Hariyali had 393 project 

and IWDP had 45 projects under DDP. All 438 projects (Pri-hariyali and IWDP) have completed and Hariyali has 297 projects 

under DDP. Now only 297 projects are still running in the district. The DWDU, Kutch-Bhuj is also monitoring a central government 

sponsored scheme on “Artificial Recharge of Groundwater through Dug wells” in the district. 

2.3 SWOT Analysis of the DWDU: 

Strength: 

(1) District level monitoring, coordination & Co-operation Committee 

(2) Independent District Level Nodal Agency. 

(3) Dedicated and experienced staff and a multidisciplinary team 

(4) Scientific planning in watershed projects with the help of BISAG, Gandhinagar, 

(5) Strong linkages with national and state level institutions, agricultural universities, North Gujarat University and NGOs for 

Capacity Building and technical guidance 

Limitation: 

(1) No permanent office building. 

(2) Project area is located adjoining to Ran of Kutch (saline desert). 

(3) Custer office is in remote area 


Opportunities: 

(1) A number of different other development schemes of the government are running; so, there can be horizontal integration and 

Convergence of programmes 

(2) Better financial provision under IWMP 

(3) Usage of new ICT tools like GIS, GPS 

Threats: 

(1) Lack of contribution and cooperation from local people 

(2) Irregularities in fund flow can derail the smooth functioning 

(3) Low literacy rate in the project are 

(4) Rainfall being very scarce and unreliable in the project area, the activities planned to be taken up may yield limited impact

BASIC INFORMATION OF THE 

PROJECT AREA 


3.1. Geography and Geo-hydrology 

3.1.1 Land use pattern: 

The net geographical area of Lakhaper watershed is about 4560.1 ha out of which 0% is forest area. About 14.36% of land 

is under agriculture which is completely rain-fed; mainly a Kharif crop is taken. About 86.56% of the total land is classified under 

wasteland of which 5.27 percent is cultivable and rest is uncultivable and hilly. Kharif crop is taken with Cluster Bean (Guvar), 

Bajra, Juvar, Sesamum (Til), Caster seed (Divela), Moong (Mug), groundnut and Moth (Math)

3.1.2 Soil and topography: 

Lakhapat watershed project (EWP) falls under North West Gujarat Agro Climatic Zone. The soil is mainly sandy soil and saline. 

The soil is brown to very dark grayish brown in surface colour. The depth of soil is moderate to deep about 25 to 75 cm. The 

predominant texture of soil is loamy sand and silt and clay. The soil fertility is very poor with low nitrogen, phosphorus and potash. 

The soil falls in Aridsoil and Inseptisoil order. The topography of the area is moderate ranging from 0-10% Slope.

The rainfall is scanty which has resulted in recurrent phenomenon of drought in every two to three years. The average rainfall of 

this area is about 295 mm (Data base on 1995 to 2005 ten year data). This uneven distribution is leading to runoff of soil every 

year to the streams, rivulets and depressed area of Ran of Kutch.

3.1.3 Land and Agriculture: 

Lack of surface water source and high salinity of ground water has limited the sufficient base for irrigation as well as for drinking 

purpose. In Lakhpat cluster the average land holding is about 4.58 ha ranging from 0.02 to 22 ha. The major crops cultivated by 

the farmers are Cluster Bean (Guvar), Bajra, Mung and Caster seed (Divela), Moong. Some of the farmers take up rain-fed 

Groundnut crop if rainfall is good. The land conservation measures such as Land levelling and farm bunds in the area will help 

them to take up a rabi crop of Groundnut, Guvar or Mung in the residual moisture.

3.1.4 Livestock: 

The village has 385 cows, 56 buffaloes, 50 bullocks, 297 goats and 663 sheep. Majority of Muslim community depends on 

goat and sheep rearing for their livelihood. Cows and buffaloes are of local breed. Lack of rain and surface water has reduced the 

fodder and pasture availability for their animals. Milk production is so low that there is no dairy cooperative in the village.

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

World: 

“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 (for Lakhapat cluster), Handbook of Agriculture, ICAR publication 2006(For 

Gujarat and India), and Final district plan (DAP) of Dept. of Agriculture (for Kutch). The results indicate that Lakhapat village has 

very low productivity compared to world, India, Gujarat and Kutch. 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, salty water and scarcity 

of rain. 

The Lakhapat cluster comes under arid zone. So farmers grow crop according to the rainfall. If they get good rainfall they 

generally grow high value crops like Caster seed, wheat and groundnut etc. In case of low rainfall they go for Guvar, Mung, and 

Bajra. So we can say that monsoon decides cropping patterns of Lakhapat village. 

Figure 6, Compartative Productivity of Mung and Guvar at Lakhapat. 


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

1. Full dependence on monsoon: 

Lakhapat village is dependent on monsoon. Water is essential input in agriculture. Due to the absence of proper irrigation 

facility, 100% 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. 

2. 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. 

3. 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. 

4. Lack of adequate farm machinery: 

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

like seed drill. So, old machineries take more time in tillage practices. 

5. Lack of finances for farmers: 

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

machinery and other inputs. 


6. 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 Lakhapat , however, there are two limitations in the use of fertilizer. First these fertilizers are 

most useful in irrigated condition. But in Lakhapat 100 per cent of land depend on rainfall. In Lakhapat mostly farmers use 

nitrogenous fertilizers especially urea. This has resulted in disproportionate use of fertilizer depleting the quality of land. 

7. 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. Lakhpat and Punrajpar villagers have to sell of own crop production at Bhuj 

Agriculture market, and Bhuj market is very far from Lakhpat about 120 Km.

Process of SHG formation 


4.2.2 User Group: 

User Groups are normally formed to manage an activity for livelihood enhancement of villagers by value addition in agriculture 

and animal husbandry product. In Lakhpat cluster farmers are sowing more then 40% Mung crop therefore, two user groups can 

earn more income through pulse product grading, packaging and marketing in both villages. One user group will do support in 

agriculture input and marketing activity. In this cluster animal husbandry is a support occupation with agriculture, and only 6.05% 

income from animal husbandry therefore, one group will provide cattle feed and vaccination camp for enhance sustainable 

livelihood for cattle owner. It was decided that each group would formulate certain internal rules and have a feeling of ownership 

with community spirit.

Production System - 1: Vermi compost unit for Lakhpat and Punrajpar village 

One of the important occupations of the villagers is animal husbandry. At present, the animal waste is not used by the villagers as 

agricultural input. If the farmers start realising the benefits of compost and vermicompost in particular, the productivity of their land 

can increase manifold. 

It is planned that a vermicompost unit by another SHG would be supported by the project. The SHG members, with the help of 

hired manpower, can collect animal-dung. They would process this dug to prepare vermicompost and sell it to the farmers in the 

village or outside, as per demand. 

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

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 42 – 45 % moisture content and a temperature of 25 - 30 o 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. 


Use 

Vermi compost has more nutrient compare to other manures and fertilizer; so, by the use of vermicompost we can reduce use of 

chemical fertilizer. Vermicompost 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 

Lakhpat and Punrajpar village has high temperature in summer; so, a shed structure is needed for the vermicompost unit. It can 

be made by the use of concrete pillars. While designing the sheds adequate room has to be left around the beds for easy 

movement of the labourers attending to the filling and harvesting the beds. 

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. 

Land 

About 125 square meter of land will be required to set up a vermin compost production unit in Lakhpat and Punrajpar village. It 

should have at least 2-3 sheds each of about 180-200 sq.ft. It should have a good watering arrangement and other equipments as 

required because moisture is very essential for vermicompost production. 

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 

50% moisture content has to be maintained all the time. Water for the purpose would come from a well nearby. 

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. 

Estimate for a vermicompost unit: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Requirement of nitrogen for 1 hectare sorghum fodder production=90 kg. 

1.6% N available in vermin compost. 

90 kg N fulfil by the use of 90/1.6*100= 5625 kg vermicompost (5.5 ton). 

Need of vermicompost to fulfil the requirement of nitrogen for 15 hectare 5.5*15 =82.5 (80 ton). 

45 kg phosphorus required for 1 hectare sorghum fodder production. 

Requirement of phosphorus for 15 hectare fodder production 15*45=675 kg. 

Supply of phosphorus through vermin compost 0.7/100*80000=560 kg. 

Remaining requirement of phosphorus 675-560=115 kg. 

Remaining dose of phosphorus will be supplied by rock phosphate. 

One compost cycle need 45 days so we need 8 cycles for 80 ton vermin compost production.

4.4. Capacity Building: 

Capacity Building is the process of assisting the group or individuals to identify and address issues and gain the insights, 

knowledge and experience needed to solve problems and implement change. 

There is a realization in the development sector that there is a need to appraise the success of development interventions 

by going beyond the conventional development targets and measures of success (e.g. in the form of commodities, goods and 

services) to take into account improvements to human potential. Capacity building of stakeholders is also increasingly viewed as 

an important factor in developmental projects that involve participation of stakeholders at all levels for effective implementation of 

projects.

EXPECTED OUTCOMES 


6.1 Expected Outcomes 

6.1.1 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 staggered trench, farm bunds, farm 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.

6.1.3 Ground water table 

Rainfall has been scanty but demand for ground water has been increasing all the time. The ground water table thus has depleted 

over the years. Presently it stands at 15 to 17 m. 

Proper water harvesting structures and percolation tanks would go a long way in increasing water table depth from 12 m in the 

pre-project level to 15 to 17m in the post project period.

6.1.4 Drinking water 

One person name is Thakkar Dipakbhai Nanjibhai has one well in his farm. He has a good water quality and they provided 

drinking water of villagers. Gujarat Water Supply Board pay some rupees of him. Gram panchayat put pipe line and bring water. 

And another project village is Punrajpar. Now GMDC is working near Punrajpar village and GMDC provide tanker for drinking 

water. They provide one tanker in two days, some time tanker have not come in this situation people drink water from village pond. 

That’s why Punrajpar villagers have given demand of well boundary raising with approach road and Jagasar pond deepening for 

drinking water for sustainable solution. 

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

6.1.5 Crops 

Agriculture primarily depends upon water; but this is what is lacking in Lakhapat 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 Catchments area 

treatment, Agriculture development and water conservation would prevent the saline water from the Ran of Kutch to mix with the 

sweet rain water and also help percolate sweet water under ground, 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.

There is negligible area under tree cover. The village has a forest area of 0 ha which consists of only Juliflora Prosopis (ganda 

babool). Trees like Neem, kher, Desi babul, Pillu, Kandho, and Alianthus are seen just here and there, not concentrated in any 

area. Under IWMP Lalhpat and Punrajpar villagers have planned two plants sawing in front of house of each house with tree 

guard.

6.1.8 Livestock 

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

like provision of good quality cows and buffaloes, but people are not aware about doing economic animal husbandry. Lakhpat and 

Punrajpar cattle owners take only one time milk of them cattle and major of time all cattle outing in west lend. At present village 

have no facility for any types of treatment? When cattle suffering any kind of disease at that time owner call to veterinary officer. 

And doctor comes from Dayapar or Ghaduli village. Many time he treat without charge but some time he take some charge. In 

monsoon time many cattle suffering foot & mouth and Hermorrhage. (Galsundho) So that villagers have taken demand of cattle 

vaccination camp. During the project 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.

CHAPTER -7 

QUALITY AND 

SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES 


7 Quality and Sustainability Issues 

7.1 Plans for Monitoring and Evaluation 

A Web-based GIS System is being developed for monitoring and evaluating 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 GIS 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 latitudelongitude 

information of various treatment areas during the DPR. The probable sites are then transferred onto the central server. 

During the works phase, any progress in the treatment areas is reported to the server by means of an SMS by the WDT. Similarly, 

any nodal officer or higher-up official can view the progress in a project by means of summarized reports generated over frequent 

periods of time. 


7.2 Plans for Project management: 

The Project management of any watershed programme is very important. It mainly depends upon the community organisation and 

the village level institutes.In Lakhapat , watershed committee and various user group have been formulated for post project 

operation and maintenance of assets created during project period. Major emphasis will be on equity and sustainable benefit of 

the project even after implementation stage. A proper link-up will be built during project period with various institutes and capacity 

building organisation. They will act as a major key player during post implementation for scaling up the successful experience 

during project. 

7.3 Watershed Development Fund: 

The major source of financial assistance after post implementation period is watershed Development Fund. The contribution of it 

will comes mainly fund the following: 

7.4 User Charges: 

Various user groups will be formed in village. These user groups will collect user charges according to the designated rules formed 

during the formation of user group. These funds will be transferred to the WDF funds as per these formulated rules. The secretary 

of watershed committee (WC) shall maintain the records of the following.
