...ication, and adoption of micro-catchments for olive orchards and fruit trees in rain-fed Pothwar have been carried out. Socioeconomic characteristics of the adopter farmers have also been studied. The study is based on primary data that was collected from 110 sample farmers in the year 2018. It is found that adopters of the gypsum technology are more educated, having large family size, operational land and livestock holdings. Gypsum application at a rate of 0....

...es, Gradoni and V-shaped micro-catchments were compared with conventional method of planting on four species viz. Eucalyptus camaldulensis. Leucaena leucocephala, Acacia nilotica and Acacia modesta at Kharian. Data on survival and growth of these species were recorded.
The survival under different water conservation techniques i.e. contour trenches, micro-catchment and Gradoni was 79%, 78% and 82% respectively while in simple pits it was only...

...ntour trenches, V-shaped micro-catchments, hillside ditches, roaded catchments, water spreading, and individual basins were investigated to determine their efficiency and effectiveness. Deep planting and plastic mulching were extensively used for this purpose. Several multipurpose tree species were recommended for the desert environmental conditions in Thal, such as Acacia albida, Acacia tortilis, Acacia elata, Tecoma undulata, Acacia victoriae, Tamarix aphyll...
