| Abstract/Description: | THE PAPER ATTEMPTS TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF INTEGRATED WATERSHED MANAGEMENT ON COMPOSITION OF CATTLE POPULATION, CATTLE MIGRATION , FODDER PRODUCTION , FEED AVAILABILITY AND VILLAGE ECONOMY IN ATYPICAL SHIWALIK FOOTHILL VILLAGE IN NORTHERN INDIA. THE VILLAGE DERIVED 54% OF ITS TOTAL INCOME FORM ANIMAL HUSBANDRY , 33% FROM AGRICULTURE AND THE REST FROM OFF- FARM ACTIVITIES. THE NUMBER OF BUFFALOES AND COWS INCREASED WHEREAS THE NUMBER OF GOATS DECREASED OVER A 7- YEAR PERIOD BETWEEN 1983/84 - 1990/91. PEOPLE'S PARTICIPATION PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN INCREASING THE PRODUCTIVITY OF ARABLE AND NON- ARABLE LAND ON A SUSTAINABLE BASIS. THE AVAILABILITY OF GREEN FODDER, DRY FODDER AND CONCENTRATES INCREASED BY 144% 56% AND 95% RESPECTIVELY, ON COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT. COWS CONTINUED TO MIGRATE TO OTHER PLACES IN SEARCH OF FODDER AND WATER WHEREAS BUFFALO MIGRATION DECREASED FROM 87% TO 36% AFTER THE PROGRAMME. THE VILLAGERS GAINED 25% OF THEIR TOTAL INCOME FROM MIGRATING ANIMALS. |
