- W2183688480 abstract "Watershed Development Programmes (WDPs), which emphasise land and water management assume significance in the context of pursuing environmentally-sound development strategies. In view of their benefits, WDPs are being implemented in several parts of India. This paper assesses the impact of WDPs on crop yields and income, and on soil and moisture conservation. The paper notes that WDPs have led to an increase in crop yields and income, improved moisture availability, etc. Small farmers too have shared in the gains of growth. The paper concludes that WDPs are beneficial in improving the economic and natural resource base of the disadvantaged regions of India. Watershed development Programmes (WDPs) which emphasise land and water management assume significance in the context of pursuing environmentally-sound development strategies. WDPs seek to make productive and optimum use of fragile and degraded lands, and also promote soil and moisture conservation. They also aim to meet community needs for fuel, food, fodder and small timber. In view of their economic and environmental benefits, WDPs have been accorded importance in the development plans of India. This paper focuses on WDPs implemented in the drylands of India which house a large number of India's poor and also contribute more than 40 per cent of the country's total foodgrain output. The specific objectives of the paper are as follows: (1) To analyse the impact of WDPs on crop yields, and income. (2) To analyse the impact of WDPs on the relative economics of alternate land-use systems. (3) To assess the impact of WDPs on soil and water conservation. Paper presented at the International Conference on Sustainable Utilisation of Global Soil and Water Resources, organized by International Soil Conservation Organisation and Ministry of Water Resources, People's Republic of China, and held at Beijing, China from May 26—31, 2002. The paper draws upon earlier works of the author (Ninan 1992; 1994; 1998; Ninan and Lakshmikanthamma, 1994; 2001) and covers a cross-section of WDPs implemented in India during the eighties and nineties. Descriptive-cum-tabular statistics, averages, ratios, and proportions and project viability measures such as IRR have been used in the analysis. 2 Benefits from WDPs" @default.
