Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Engineering - Geotechnology, Haramaya University (Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Agricultural Engineering), language: English, abstract: Water harvesting technologies are being promoted at the household level in Oromia Region. Among the different types of surface runoff water harvesting structures adopted in the region, earthen pond seems to be the major one practiced by many farmers. Huge numbers of earthen ponds have been implemented to date in different sites. However, the problem of seepage is not adequately addressed; loss of water from the ponds due to seepage and evaporation has been reducing the performance of the ponds. These days, polyethylene membrane has been provided by the government to solve the problem and this membrane has been found to reduce seepage loss by 90%. Unfortunately, the membrane is too costly and not easily available to all farmers. Therefore, to alleviate the situation, alternative methods of reducing seepage loss were investigated in this experiment. Biological and physical methods for reducing seepage were evaluated in small ponds constructed in permeable silty clay soils of the Region. The biological method involved use of bio-plastic sandwiches made up of successive layers of soil, manure, vegetative material and soil. The physical method involved compacting of existing soil and treating the surface by termite mold mix soil. The biological methods reduced the mean cumulative seepage rate by 47% and the physical treatment reduced by 21% after 90 days of wetting compared to the untreated soil. Therefore, both methods can be cost effectively applied by the farmers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water harvesting is gaining more and more recognition as a sustainable and resilient water supply options. It is economically viable, socially compatible and environmentally friendly. Water harvesting has proven to be a robust solution to overcome or reduce water shortages all over the world. It is important to understand how to apply this practice in a sustainable and effective way to make full use of its potential in a world increasingly threatened by water scarcity. The Handbook of Water Harvesting and Conservation: Basic Concepts and Fundamentals is the most comprehensive, up-to-date and applied handbook on water harvesting and conservation yet published. The book’s 30 chapters -- written by 84 outstanding international experts from approximately 20 selected countries faced by drought -- explore, critique and develop concepts and systems for water harvesting. The editors bring together many perspectives into a synthesis that is both academically based and practical in its potential applications. The Handbook of Water Harvesting and Conservation: Basic Concepts and Fundamentals is an important tool for education, research and technical works in the areas of soil, water and watershed management and is highly useful for drought strategy planning, flood management and developing techniques to adapt to climate change in urban, agricultural, forest and rangeland areas.

This book was released on 2012-05-22 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To improve their well-being, the poor in developing countries have used both collective action through formal and informal groups and property rights to natural resources. Collective Action and Property Rights for Poverty Reduction: Insights from Africa and Asia examines how these two types of institutions, separately and together, influence quality of life and how they can be strengthened to improve the livelihoods of the rural poor. The product of a global research study by the Systemwide Program on Collective Action and Property Rights (CAPRi) of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, this book draws on case studies from East Africa and South and Southeast Asia to investigate how collective action and property rights have contributed to poverty reduction. The book extends the analysis of these institutions beyond their frequently studied role in natural resource management by also examining how they can reduce vulnerability to different types of shocks. Essays in the volume identify opportunities and risks present in the institutions of collective action and property rights. For example, property rights to natural resources can offer a variety of advantages, providing individuals and groups not only with benefits and incomes but also with assets that can counter the negative effects of shocks such as drought, and can make collective action easier. The authors also demonstrate that collective action has the potential to reduce poverty if it includes more vulnerable groups such as women, ethnic minorities, and the very poor. Preventing exclusion of these often-marginalized groups and guaranteeing genuinely inclusive collective action might require special rules and policies. Another danger to the poor is the capture of property rights by elites, which can be the result of privatization and decentralization policies; case studies and analysis identify actions to prevent such elite capture.
