Gradoni orchard terraces are intermittent strips of contour-based structures separated by catchments of about 10 metres. They are designed to capture and hold rainwater, reduce erosion, and improve conditions for the cultivation (in this case) of almond and pistachio trees, thereby enhancing land productivity and climate resilience in dryland areas.

Contour trenches for the cultivation of almond trees, and contour strips for cereals are types of rainwater harvesting structures. They are designed to capture runoff, reduce erosion, and enhance soil moisture—thereby improving land productivity and supporting climate-resilient agriculture in lowland dry areas.

Water exploitation is a major issue in Afghanistan. The lift irrigation technology helps to irrigate an afforestation/agroforestry area (demonstration plot) using surface water (rivers) and solar-powered submersible pump. The construction of reservoirs at the demo plot ensures efficient water storage and use for irrigation purposes without relying on groundwater. A well-designed pipe irrigation scheme is implemented to distribute water evenly across the site, supporting plant irrigation and growth.

La lutte contre l'ensablement des cuvettes oasiennes dans les départements de Gouré et de Maïné-Soroa est réalisée à travers deux techniques de fixation des dunes: (i) la fixation mécanique ou primaire (palissades inertes, fascines) qui stabilise les masses sableuses en mouvement ou empêche la formation de ces masses sableuses sur des obstacles (infrastructures, boisements, bordures de cuvettes), et (ii) la fixation biologique ou définitive qui consiste à créer une couverture végétale permanente sur la dune.

Le reforestation de la mangrove aide à lutter contre la désertification et la dégradation des terres de plusieurs façons essentielles. Les sites de reboisement se trouvent à l'intérieur de l'AMP (Aire Marine Protégée) de Bamboung, plus précisément dans le secteur de Sadiala. Ce secteur comprend trois sites : Sadiala 1, Sadiala 2, et Sadiala 3, couvrant respectivement 4,89 ha, 0,232 ha, et 0,06 ha, pour un total de 5,182 ha. Les écosystèmes forestiers de ces sites montrent une certaine régénération naturelle, bien que faible. Les efforts de restauration sont cruciaux pour contrer les effets de la salinisation, de l'érosion côtière, et de l'ensablement, exacerbés par des pratiques humaines non durables.

Enhanced beekeeping using modern frame hives technology supports participation of women and youths as it is an important source of household income. Traditional forest-based beekeeping requires spending time away from home and is generally not appropriate for family-based women and the youth. In addition modern beekeeping technologies support sustainable natural resource management. Traditional beekeeping requires debarking and cutting down trees for bark hive preparation, which is destructive to the environment.

This multi canopy agroforestry technology is implemented in the cattle corridor. Annual crops such as banana (musa acuminata), and maize (Zea mays) together with perennial crops such as coffee (coffea) and tree species (psedopodia microcarpa) are integrated and form the front lower vertical spaces, followed by a level of taller crops. The highest level is formed by tall trees and crops forming the upper canopy, maximizing land use and ecological benefits.

Beekeeping is an activity which involves maintenance of bee colonies by using man-made hives within a special selected area. Through beekeeping, conservation of trees is ensured as they provide a potential resource (nectar) required by bees for honey productions as they flower variably. Also, trees are used for hanging of bee hives (ON TREE apiaries) and hence are conserved. Therefore, beekeeping is one among the Sustainable Forest Management practices that has been used for conservation of natural trees and forest reserves.

The project “Scaling up experiential learning tools for sustainable water governance in India” aimed at enhancing sustainable water management at scale by improving the capacities of 1,500 rural communities covering 105,000 households directly and 2,000 communities covering 140,000 households indirectly in six Indian states to manage water more sustainably. This was achieved through experiential learning from collective action games, structured community debriefings, and participatory water planning tools that contribute to greater awareness and improved governance, inducing behavioural change toward more sustainable water governance and management. The work was jointly conducted by the Foundation for Ecological Security, India (FES), the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT).
