 WHAT IS ORCHARD

• An orchard is a United Nations (UN) designated area where the intentional plantation of trees or shrubs is
maintained for food production.
• An orchard is an area of land on which fruit trees are grown.
 HISTORY

In 2001, there were 6 to 7 women in a Self-Help Group (SHG), and their economic condition was not
good. They had barren land where millets were grown, but the land was unproductive and lacked
water, resulting in low yields. With the help of NGOs, the group started a mango orchard plantation.
 THE PROGRAM WAS STARTED

FIRSTLY , IN 2009 THE PLANTATION WAS STARTED WHICH MANGO PLANTATION WAS DONE IN 17 ACRE
OF LAND BY INCLUDING 22 FAMILIES. THE FIRST WELL WAS CONSTRUCTED IN 2009, AND THEN AN
ADDITIONAL 4 TO 5 WELLS WERE MADE IN 2011-2012. ALONG WITH THE WELLS, LOOSE BOULDERS
WERE ALSO PLACED TO MAINTAIN THE GROUND LEVEL.
 OBSERVATION

WATER CONSERVATION

LOOSE BOULDERS-
loose boulder Loose stone check dams The main objectives for these dams are to control channel
erosion along the gully bed and to stop waterfall erosion by stabilising gully heads.
 TRENCHES

Field trenches increase precipitation harvesting by breaking the slope of the ground and therefore reducing
the velocity of water runoff. By decreasing runoff, they enhance water infiltration and prevent soil erosion.
Trenches can be seen as an extended practice of ploughing fields.
30 X 40 METHOD
 GULLY PLOUGHING

Blocking of gullies by stone or earth check

dams or vegetative barriers leads to the
deposition of fertile sediments and
organic matter, and the collection of water
during heavy rainfall events
 WINDROW COMPOSTING

IN AGRICULTURE, WINDROW COMPOSTING IS THE PRODUCTION OF

COMPOST BY PILING ORGANIC MATTER OR BIODEGRADABLE WASTE,
SUCH AS ANIMAL MANURE AND CROP RESIDUES, IN LONG ROWS –
WINDROW. AS THE PROCESS IS AEROBIC, IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS OPEN
WINDROW COMPOSTING OR OPEN AIR WINDROW.

 CONCLUSION

Engaging in mango orchard planting can bring about several benefits, including enhancing soil health, conserving
water resources, and promoting biodiversity. The cultivation of mango orchards contributes to the overall well-being
of the ecosystem by improving soil fertility, reducing erosion, and creating habitats for various plant and animal
species.
