EXECUTIVE SUMMERY

Introduction-

The Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) has been designed to address two main issues namely- sustainable
rural economy and preservation of environmental assets through development and sustainable extraction of their benefits, in a
comprehensive and holistic manner. The endeavor ends at proactive peoples participation through productive activities generating
rural employment and agricultural productivity which ultimately leads to food security ad all round improvement of rural livelihood.
The other issue of extreme relevance is the emerging threats of depleting fresh water resources, depleting ground water resources
and global climate change which are aimed to be addressed through implementation of the Integrated Watershed Management
Projects.

Background Note of the District of Dhubri

The Dhubri District in which the CHAMPAVATI WEST Integrated watershed Management Project (Dhubri-5/2010-11) falls, is under
Lower Brahmaputra Valley agro Climatic Zone and its district headquarter Dhubri is located at a distance of 283 km from state
headquarter. The district has three civil Sub-divisions-Dhubri, Bilashipara and South Salmara-Mankachar.It has 15 Development
Blocks, 168 Gaon Panchayats and 1136 Revenue Villages.
The district is bounded by Kokrajhar district in the north, West Bengal and Bangladesh in the west, Meghalaya in the south and
Meghalaya and Bongaigaon in the East. The river Brahmaputra flows through the district roughly from east to west, dividing the
district into two parts the north bank and south bank. The river has innumerable tiny islands(char) created due to frequent change
of its course. Besides Brahmaputra, there are several other rivers like Champawati, Gaurang, Sonkosh, Tipkai, Gadadhar,
Gangadhar in the North Bank and Jinjiram and Kalo in the south bank
The total geographical area of the district is 2361 sq.km that is 3.01 % of the total geographical area of the state. The district has
varied topography of high, medium and low lying area. Based on rainfall, physiography, occurrence of flood etc the district has
been delineated into four agro-ecological situations(AES).These are (I)Flood prone riverine alluvial plains(Low lying area),(II)Flood
free old riverine alluvial plains(medium high land),(III)High land old alluvial and (IV) Char land(very much prone to flood and
erosion.
Land use pattern of the District: -
1. Total Geographical area- 236126 ha
2. Net sown area 130034 ha
3. Current fallow 7560 ha
4. Cultivable waste 65580 ha
5. Cultivable land 144152 ha
6. Land under non agricultural use 16909 ha
7. Permanent pasture 2156 ha
8. Land under misc. tree plantation- 12942 ha
9. Other fallows 58303 ha
10. Forest 1664 ha
11. Cropping intensity 203%

District Income: -
Agriculture is the main source of income as 80%of the farm families depend on Agriculture. The highest income comes from
summer paddy flowed by winter paddy jute and mustard and other vegetables

Agricultural scenario of the district-
Major crops grown in the district are paddy (grown as summer, winter and autumn paddy)Mustard, Jute, Black gram, lentil, Rabi
and kharif vegetables like Brinjal, cabbage, cauliflower, ladys finger, radish, tomato, cucumber, carrot, and guards. Onion, Garlic,
chilly, Zinger and turmeric are also grown in small areas. Some other minor crops grown in the district are Niger, pineapple, etc.
The important plantation crops are Banana, Coconut, areca nut, guava, mango, lemon, Bamboo etc.

Animal husbandry and Veterinary commodities-
Animal Husbandry is one of the major core sectors of the district economy. It provides opportunities for poverty alleviation,
development of rural economy, combating rural unemployment and abridges the increasing gap between poor rural and affluent
urban society Besides rearing cow and buffalo for milk purpose sheep and goats are mostly reared in backyard system/Pigs and
poultry are also reared in the district.

Fishery-
Fishery is another important enterprise next to agriculture and animal husbandry. The district has numbers of natural beels (Big
water bodies ) namely-Dhir beel, Hakama Beel, Sarashar Beel, Dhaka Beel ,Otar Beel, Rupsi Beel, Morakura Beel, Chandakhol
Beel, Jhagra Beel, Howra Beel, Bhelakoba Beel, Laokhowa Beel ,Mankachar Beel, and Kabitarmari Beel.

Soil-
Soil of the districts is predominantly sandy loam in texture which covers 58.06%of the total cultivable area. It is followed by Clay
loam (23.29%), red soil (2.29%),sandy soil(11.03%) and clay soil(5.30%)

As per soil survey map delineated by the National Bureau of soil survey and land use planning, jorhat Regional Centre in
association with the Department of Agriculture ,Assam the soil of the Northern part of the district are predominantly very deep,
moderately well drained, coarse loamy soil occurring on level to nearly level active flood plain (coarse loamy Aquic
Udifluvents)associated with very deep, poorly drained ,fine loamy soils with slight flooding(Fine loamy Typic Fluviquents) while the
soil of Northern part of the district
Deep, moderately well drained ,coarse silty soils occurring on very gently sloping flood plain and moderate flooding (Coarse Silty
Aeric Fluvaquents ,associated with very deep ,well drained sandy soils occurring on soils level to nearly level active flood
plain(Sandy Typic Udifluvents )

Soil fertility indices-
There is no available data on soil sample analysis regarding organic carbon, N,P,K, and other micronutrient content of the soil in
the district. However in genera , soil of the district is acidic in reaction. Soil of the major area are mildly acidic (5.5 to 6.5PH),while
soil in high land old alluvial is severely acidic.
Climate-
Climate of the district is warm humid and sub-tropical in nature with two distinct seasons-summer and winter. The records of
rainfall, maximum and minimum temperature, Relative humidity of last five years from April 2006 to March 2011 in respect of the
station Dhubri are collected from the Indian meteorological Department, Ministry of Earth Sciences, Government of India, and are
given below.
