| Abstract/Description: | Women’s participation in watershed development programme is a collective and cooperative effort by the local women farmers for contributing and sharing common benefits. Women’s participation in soil and water conservation interventions for watershed development programme is imperative during planning, implementation and maintenance phases to make the programme more successful. The study was conducted during 1998-2001 in the Integrated Wasteland Development Project (IWDP), Antisar watershed, located in Kapadwanj Taluka of Kheda district in semi-arid tropics of Gujarat state to measure the extent of women’s participation in watershed development programme. The extent of participation towards each activity regarding planning, implementation and maintenance for Antisar watershed development programme was computed with help of developed Activity Intensity Index (AII). People’s Participation Index (PPI) was also developed by the investigator to measure the overall extent of women’s participation in soil and water conservation for watershed development programme during planning, implementation and maintenance phases. The results in the paper revealed that the women farmers exhibited high participation in the watershed development activities such as (i) planning of Check dams in their fields, (ii) allowed Project Implementing Agency (PIA) to implement the soil and water conservation works for development of the Anisar watershed (iii) women’s were contributed money in maintenance of SWC structures. The overall extent of women's participation during the Antisar watershed development programme planning, implementation and maintenance phases were also computed high with the help of the PPI. |
