CHARTER &

SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION

AND CROP DEVELOPMENT

Object ives

6.1 The objective* of this component of KIDP are as followsi

- to encourage farmers to develop sustainable cropping systemsthrough the adoption of techniques which will reduce soilerosion and the loss of water and plant nutrients from theirland |

- to help farmers build and maintain simple, local waterconservation structures for domestic and livestock use)

- to improve the capacity of the field extension service of theMinistry of Agriculture to respond to the increasing need offarmers for advice and assistance with conservation farmingthroughout the District.

Exis t ing Resources

Extension Stiff

6.2 The avai labi l i ty of frontline staff i s summarized in Table 6 .1.A detailed breakdown i s given in Appendix 6A.

6.3 The MOA aims to provide one professionally qualified TA forevery Sub-Location. Currently there *re 157 frontline staff (Locationand Sub-Location) drawn from TO, TA and JTA grades. JTAs are graduallybeing phased out and replaced by properly trained TAs.

6.4 Table 6 .1 , which shows the deployment of MOA frontline staff(Locational and Sub-Locational), indicates an overall coverage of oneextension worker to about 500 farm families (the Kenya norm). Centraland Mwingi Divisions have the highest density of staff per unit area,but a lower ratio of staff per family than Mutomo and Kyuso, whereextension workers have fewer farm families to v i s i t , but at least twicethe area to cover. Kyuso Division i s clearly the most thinly suppliedwith TAs (one per 1376 farm families and one per 598 square kilometres).None are posted below the Locational level because of the low potentialfor crop production and the remote and diff icult l iving conditions forfield staff, especially without transport.

CHAPTER & BOIL fc HATER CONSERVATION* CROP DEVELOPMENT

6.5 Mutomo Division, which currently has 31 TAs/JTAs, on* in eachLocation, will lo*e 15 JTAs"' by the and of PY2 when all Danidaproject-paid JTAs are due to be phased out. The degree of disruption tothe extension programme will be dependent on the speed with which MOAemployees can be substituted. Mutomo is also favoured by the relativelylarge number of professionally qualified officers (7 TOs) working atDivisional level.

6.6 The National Extension Project covers 24 Locations and 67 Sub-Locations in the higher potential areas for crop production.

6.7 A Soil and Water Conservation Officer (Technical Officer level)and two Soil Conservation Assistants are currently assigned to eachDivisional office.

Trmnsport

6.8 The deployment of the serviceable field cars and motorbikes isalso shown in Table 6.1. At the end of May 1389 there was only onefield vehicle at Divisional level (other than Mutomo) and only three atHQ. Details are contained in Appendix 6B. Until recently, SIDA hassupplied motorbikes to Divisional SCOs, but intends to withdraw itssupport following Danida's involvement at District level. Mutomo is byfar the best supplied, with 18 motorbikes currently used by frontlineextension staff, more than the number available in the rest of theDistrict.

Budgetary Resources

6.9 The breakdown of the GOK Recurrent Budget for the MOA Kitui for1988/89 is shown in Table 6.2.

6.10 Annual recurrent resources amount to Ksh 1.57 million in 1988/89(excluding salaries). The Development Budget totalled Ksh 3.58 millionover the same period.

6.11 The SIDA Soil and Water Conservation Project (Ksh 1.8 million)and the National Extension Programme (Ksh 1.3 million) were the mostsignificant items. The former is to be terminated in the comingfinancial year in anticipation of Danida's involvement in soilconservation at District level.

[1] Another 2 JTAs are currently on Danida-paid study leave.

SOIL It HATER CONSERVATION CHAPTER 6ti CROP DEVELOPHENT

6.12 It is worth noting that the anticipated recurrent expenditureunder KIDP for soil conservation and extension in 1990/91, amounts toKsh 5.95 million, which doubles the MOA operating budget. This excludesthe KIDP allocation under water conservation, which amounts to anotherKsh 3 million.

Soil Conservation

6.13 The scarcity of land in Kitui District is increasingly reflectedin the desire of farmers to enclose holdings and to invest in soilconservation measures on their land. Over the last two decades, greatstrides have been made in introducing physical, cultural and biologicalconservation techniques. Although much has already been achieved inKitui District, large areas of land Ar« still cultivated without thenecessary measures to reduce erosion.

6.14 Organised soil conservation works reported in the MOA AnnualReport for 198B cover no more than 2000 ha annually. However, some 3000to 3500 ha of arable land *re required every year to accommodate thegrowing population of the District. This expansion is occurring in areaswhich are either too steep or too dry for sustained crop production,both in the densely populated, more humid, upland areas of Central andMwingi Divisions and the more arid, lowland areas of Kyuso, Mutito andMutomo. The MOA is required to devote more and more resources toadvising farmers on how to intensify production in the traditionallyproductive areas as well as how to gain a livelihood from the moremarginal land without destroying its productive potential.

6.15 Soil conservation work in the District is mainly carried out byorganised mwethya groups. These self-help groups have an averagemembership of 25-30, mainly women. Since the suspension of the USAIDASAL project, the supply of tools for mwethya groups in the District hasmarkedly decreased and this has resulted in a decline in the output ofsoil conservation works in all Divisions except Mutomo whereproductivity has been maintained with Danida support.

6.16 At the same time as the cutback in the supply of incentives forgroups, there has been a marked decrease in the availability ofoperating funds for the Ministry of Agriculture staff, particularly fortransport which is necessary for routine supervision and technical back-up of frontline staff. Mutomo Division has been an exception; transportand operating expenses have not been a constraint and extension staffhave been able to carry out their work without delays caused by the non-arrival of funds.

CHAPTER 6 SOIL It HATER CONSERVATIONIt CROP DEVELOPrCNT

6.17 The justification for extending assistance to soil conservationand extension in the District under KIDP is based on the experience ofthe Mutomo Soil and Mater Conservation Project. Between 1982 and 1989,Danida support in the form of capital equipment, buildings, etc. andoperating costs for routine extension work, as well as the provision ofincentives to self-help groups, has done *uch to increase the progressof soil conservation in the Division and raise the morale of MOA staffassigned to the project.'33

Target Group

6.18 Danida'* assistance to the ASAL programmes in Kenya is primarilyaimed at the drier, more marginal parts of the two Districts involvedand the resource-poor households. However, within Kitui District, it isthe more humid, upland Divisions where soil erosion is the greatestthreat and where the majority of the population arc concentrated.Furthermore, soil and water conservation work will be most effective ifall households within a catchment participate. If some fields are leftout, the possibility of further soil erosion remains. By encouragingall households to take part in conservation work the poorer householdsare less likely to be excluded.

Scographictl Priorities

6.19 MOA will commence KIDP-supported soil conservation workthroughout the District as soon the necessary resources can be madeavailable by KIDP. However, it will be necessary to draw up plans foreach Location, in close cooperation with the Locational and Sub-Locational Development Committees. Where appropriate, this work will becoordinated with that of the water supply, range rehabilitation andforestry sectors of KIDP,

SOIL V WATER CONSERVATION CHAPTER 6I CROP DEVELOPMENT

Soil Conservation Oatfiats

6.20 Soil Conservation""3 will be promoted both through! .

(a) Extensions within the context of the National ExtensionProject, the provision of advice to farmers on land managementand crop husbandry: e.g.

Season Possible •xtension advice

land preparation - promote unploughed strips- plough across the slope- river bank reserves

planting - adequate plant population- intercropping- application of fertilizer

and manures- selection of good seed- plant across the slope- mulching

weeding - weed across the slope

harvesting - conserve waste vegetativematerial for trash lines andfor incorporation in thesoil.

(b) Community action: emphasis will be given to the catchmentapproach which involves a small focal area covering perhaps100-200 hectares and comprising a group of farms. The aim ofthe catchment approach is to conserve the total area as opposedto disjointed, haphazardly laid-out conservation measures.Extension efforts will be concentrated in each Area in turnwhile giving general extension advice in other areas as well.The community will be organized and mobilized for effectiveparticipation with the assistance of the Community Educationand Training Section of KIDP (see Chapter S ) ' * *

[3] This section draws on the Plan of Operation 1989/90-1991/92, Soiland Water Conservation Project <SIDA>, Agricultural EngineeringDivision, Soil and Water Conservation Branch, Ministry of Agriculture,Nairobi.

[43 The catchment approach, involving 100-200ha and a group of farms,is not incompatible with the adoption of a community developmentapproach - indeed, without adopting it, little will be achieved.

CHAPTER 6 SOIL It HATER CONSERVATIONfc CROP DEVELOPMENT

<c) Identification of the Catchment Areai soil conservation staffwill develop the criteria for selecting a suitable catchmentarea and let the community do the selection of several areas inorder of priority within each working *r** or Sub-Location.Thus a conservation strategy which is both technically andsocially sound will be effected. Where appropriate, this workwill be coordinated with that of the water supply and rangerehabilitation sectors of KIDP.

The importance of catchment planning diminishes in areas withgentle slopes and where mhambas are widely spaced and separatedby bushland. The converse applies on intensively cultivated,densely settled steeply sloping land.

(d) Planning and layouti a special soil conservation planning teamcomprising the Divisional Soil Conservation Officer and two TAswill map out or appraise the catchment *m and work out aconservation plan. The two TAs, with the local TA/JTA, will layout the lines for the proposed conservation measures. TheTA/JTA will supervise the farmers implementing the recommendedconservation measures and offer advice on construction andmaintenance. The Divisional SCO will make regular follow-upvisits to ensure correct implementation of the plan.

(e) Conservation .methodi a combination of structural, biologicaland cultural conservation methods will be recommended andfarmers encouraged to choose what is acceptable or feasibleunder their circumstances. A combination of methods will beencouraged. The planting of multi-purpose species forstabilizing terrace banks will be actively promoted.

Cf) Execution of the recommended measures will be theresponsibility of the individual farmer. Those beyond theability of individual farmers such as large gullies, major cut-off drains or rehabilitation of large, badly eroded areas willbe handled by the affected community. Such communities willreceive the necessary construction tools and technical advicefrom their local TA.

(g) Range Rehabilitation; Reclamation of so-called communalgrazing has not proved sustainable and, in future,rehabilitation work will focus on grazing land owned byindividual farmers (about 0.4 ha per farm). Groups will beencouraged to assist members to carry out the work. Sites willbe closed to grazing and reclamation will be carried out bycontrolling gullies, terracing, establishing grasses and agro-forestry species. Works will include: establishment of livefences, contour bunds and terracing, check dams and cut-offdrains and the digging of shallow pits for tree establishment.The work will be done in close cooperation with the staff ofthe MOLD'S Range Division which will provide seeds for fodderspecies and advise farmers and MOA extension staff on livestockand grazing management in the reclaimed areas.

(h) Training: The National Soil and Water Conservation Project(SIDA) already organizes a comprehensive training programme forprofessional staff of the MOA, civil servants, school teachers,etc. at national and provincial level.

KIDP would support training of teachers, chiefs, group leadersand group members at Divisional level. At least four 4-daytraining courses a year would be conducted at Divisional HQs inclose cooperation with the GETS (see Chapter 5).

At District level, KIDP would support two 5-day courses for thetraining of TAs at the BLI.

(i) Physical targets! work will be carried out in cooperation withgroups and in accordance with the practices recommended by theSoil and Water Conservation Branch of the Ministry ofAgriculture. Physical targets for the District over theproject period area »re as follows:

The above targets are based on assessment of the pastperformance under the MSWCP and the incentives currently offeredto farmers.

About 20-25 per cent of the annually cultivated area (about14,000 ha) would be conserved over the programme period. Theplanned annual decrease in the area to be covered is based onthe assumption that the requirement for organised conservationwork will decrease in line with the increasing adoption of soilconservation practices by farmers on their own initiative. Therequirement for the project to provide hand tools in Mutomo

C5] The programme for 1989/90 and 1990/91 incorporates a number ofactivities which are specific to Mutomo Division. By PY2, theseactivities will either have been extended into other Divisions or havebeen curtailed so as to obtain a more equitable spread of KIDPactivities throughout the District. Future work plans will specifyadditional activities in other Divisions which are consistent with theKIDP strategy.

C63 Assumes an average spacing between bunds, ditches, strips, trashlines, etc. of 20 metres.

Hand tools will bedistributed to groups when 0.5km (l.Oha) has been completed.Every lkm will earn a wheelbarrow and every two kilometres anox-plough and pair of harnesses. These incentives are thosecurrently provided to groups on the Mutomo project. They havebeen justified on the grounds that soil conservation makesdemands on farmers' tools which have to be replaced. Care willbe taken by extension staff to ensure that the offer of materialincentives does not diminish the relevance of soil conservationand induce people to undertake tasks in which they have nofaith.

The above targets assume a gradual build up from PY1 (1990/91)and take account of the relative importance of cropping in thedifferent Divisions of the District. Overall some 15 per cent ofthe arable area would be conserved by groups during the planperiod. This would be in addition to the work carried out byindividual farmers on their own land.

These targets should be reviewed annually taking account of theprevious year's performance.

(j) Semi-annual Work Plans will be prepared in November-December andin Nay-June in preparation for the peak periods of activity inJanuary-February and July-September. An example of a work planformat from Danida's Taita-Taveta ASAL programme is provided inAppendix 6C.

(k) Reporting will follow the existing MOA SWCB guidelines. TheDivision SCO will make monthly progress reports to the DistrictSCO, copied to the PMU. The District will report to the PDA witha copy to Headquarters (SWCB); monthly, quarterly, half-yearlyand annually.

Agroforestry*73

6.21 The objective of the agroforestry programme is to encourage theplanting and cultivation of trees, bushes, shrubs and grasses asmeasures against soil erosion, and also as a way of enhancing farmproductivity and income. District-level goals for implementation includethe following:

- translating the applied research work being conducted in KituiDistrict into an extension package and incorporating it into theroutine work of the NEP;

[7] At a meeting of the KIDP Programme Steering Committee, 26 May1989, it was felt that nursery management uas primarily theresponsibility of the DFO and that MOA and MENR should reach anagreement on the rationalisation of nurseries and that KIDP should notsupport duplication. This issue should be reviewed by the first AnnualProgramming Mission.

- production of tree •••tilings from the Divisional ('central')nurseries as well as from group nurseries.

(a) MQA Central Nuracnes: Under KIDP, the following nurserieswould be assisted to produce 50,000 seedlings per annum:

Mutomo Division: Matinga, Ikutha and Voo

Mwingi Division: Huthamo

Central: Kitho, Syokimuu

Kyuso: Usueni, Thunguthu

Mutito: Nuu and Mutito

(b) Mutomo Division. School Nurseries: 143 schools throughout theDivision will be assisted by the programme to establishnurseries by the provision of materials and technical advicefrom extension staff and nursery foremen. This work, which isalready under way (90 schools currently covered), will build upover the programme period as follows:

PY1 PY2 PY3 PY4 PY5

Each child will be encouraged to rm^r three shade or fruitseedlings per year in the school nursery, a sufficiently smallnumber to be watered each day with the contents of a sodabottle. At planting-out time, two seedlings will be carriedhome by each pupil for establishment around the homestead. Theremaining tree will be planted near the school. In addition tothe educational value of the activity, the involvement ofschool children reduces the need to employ nursery attendantsand overcomes the transport problem at planting time. Seeds(e.g. cashew nuts) will also be provided to children.

Soil Conservation Inputs

6.22 Tables 2.1 - 2.2, 2.2.1 - 2.2.6 in Annex L list the budgeteditems for soil conservation. The budget for PY2-5 is intended to beindicative and to be revised in the course of annual programming andbudgeting exercises, scheduled to take place in March each year.

6.23 Operating costs in PY1 have been budgeted at 90 per cent ofsubsequent years in anticipation of a gradual start up.

6.24 At District level, KIDP will provide transport for supervision(a vehicle each for the DAO and SCO) and operating costs for up to30,000 km per vehicle per year. Per diems are budgeted at 60 days perperson per year. Incremental office operating costs will also be coveredto the sum of Ksh 12,000 per year. A provision is made for 300 trainingdays (@ Ksh 200 per person-day) at the BLI.

6.25 At Divisional level, the Div. SCO and 2 TAs (SO and all LEOswill be provided with motorcycles and operating costs. TAs and JTAs willreceive bicycles. A provision for hand tools (Nairobi prices) isincluded for each Division on the basis of planned physical targets. TheMOA Divisional nurseries will be supported by KIDP up to Ksh 50,000 perannum for materials and casual labour. Each Division has been allocated120 person-days (@ Ksh ISO per person-day) for training chiefs, groupleaders, etc.

6.26 At Mwingi, Kyuso and Mutito, an office (22 square metres) andstore (12 square metres) will be provided for the Div. SCO in the KIDPoffice complex to be constructed in PY1.

Soil Conservation Inputs for Hutamo

£.27 Initially Mutomo Division has a higher allocation of operatingfunds than other Divisions. However, no new capital expenditure isenvisaged until 1991/92, when motorbikes and bicycles will be replacedaccording to the norms prevailing in other Divisions.

6.28 Other inputs planned specifically for Mutomo and relating to thewinding up of the MSWCP are as follows:

(a) Vehicle operating costs (incl. drivers) for the existing SCOfleet (see Table 2.2.6, Annex L) up to end of 1930/91.

(b) 15 project-paid JTAs, to be phased out over 3 years: 15:10:5.

(c) 2 project-paid animal traction trainers until end of 1990/91.

(d) 3 nursery foremen until the end of 1990/91f 12 nurseryattendants to be phased out by end of 1990/91.

(e) School nursery programme to continue indefinitely; KIDP toprovide tools, materials and seeds,

Crop Development

6.29 Training and Visit (T&V), an extension management procedureintroduced to Kitui District in 1985 under the World Bank NationalExtension Project, is encountering problems. Too often contact farmersfail to turn up at the time of the scheduled visit and attendance by'follow-up' farmers is poor. Repeated doses of the extension message aretedious for all concerned. It has proved difficult to schedule routinetraining in semi-arid areas because of the unreliability of rainfall anduncertainty attached to the timing of various operations in the farmingcalendar. Logistics are made difficult by the scattered homesteads andthe low density of farms in many low-lying Locations.

CHAPTER 6 SOIL Ic HATER CONSERVATIONIt CROP DEVELOPMENT

6.30 It is necessary to breathe new life into the T&V system, byt

- improving the reliability of transport and the flow of funds tosupport training, crop demonstrations on farmers fields,scheduled visits, supervisions, etc.

- placing more emphasis on contact groups rather than contactfarmers and linking the crop extension programme more closely tothe soil conservation and agroforestry work with mwethya groups;

- improving practical training of extension staff (method andresult demonstrations) so that they can awaken and maintain theinterest of farmers and convince them of the relevance of whatextension staff have to offer|

- improving the relevance and technical content of specificaspects of the extension message by pooling the knowledge ofsubject matter specialists (professional groups) at monthlyworkshops in the District HQ and imparting this information toTAs during routine training sessions at Divisional level;

- increasing the scope of the conservation advice by includingsubject matter specialists from MOLD (Range, and AnimalProduction) and the RAES (Agroforestry) in the monthly trainingworkshops.

Crop Develop»ent Outputs

6.31 Specific aspects of the crop development programme of the MOA tobe supported by KIDP are as follows:

(a) D^ojistj^tions: Each field extension worker will organise threemethod/result demonstrations per season per working area onfarmers' land. KIDP will provide insecticides and recommendedseeds (e.g. Katumani and Makueni maize, sorghum, cowpeas, greengrains, pigeon peas) obtained from Katumani and bulked onDivisional farms (e.g. Itumba farm in Mutomo Division, BLI inCentral, the seed bulking plot at Mutito) or purchased from theKitui Union, the KSSCU at Thika or Machakos. The harvestedproduct will be distributed for seed bulking to groups who tendthe demonstrations.

(b) Field Davsi In addition, extension staff will organise onefield day per working area per season. A field day is organisedon a farmer's land and will demonstrate a package of improvedpractices comprising a variety of crops and conservationtechniques.

(c) Divisional Farmst

Itumba Farm, which covers about 7 ha and is located about 10 kmfrom Mutomo town, will be retained as a Divisional centre forapplied trials and demonstrations and a focal point foragronomic training for field staff, teachers (300 p.a.), chiefsand sub-chiefs (SO p.a.) and farmers (1000 p.a.). The farm hasa meeting room for 30 people as well as catering facilities.

Cd) Draught animal• hutomo Division: KIDP will take not overresponsibility from MSWCP for assistance with ox-training togroups of farmers until 1990/91. The annual target for ox-training is 64 pairs; donkeys, 50 pairs.

(e) Seed Bulking, Mutomo Division! Due to occasional crop failures,there is a need to establish a seed bank for pulses to supplyseed when it is not available locally. Improved seeds bulked onItumba Farm will be distributed to selected farmers and/orgroups who will bulk up the supply and sell the produce back tothe project for storage against a future crop failure. In someyears, this will not be necessary. For planning purposes, it isassumed that this will be done every third year when 45 tonnes(cowpeas 30 tonnes, sorghum 5 tonnes and green grams 10 tonnes)will be dressed and put in storage at Itumba farm. The currentreserve of seed is expected to last two years. Future financialdisbursement against this item will be dependent on the DAEO,Mutomo Division, presenting an acceptable project proposalincorporating the necessary agronomic and financial details ofthe scheme.

Crop Development Inputs

6.32 Tables 2.1 - 2.2, 2.2.1 - 2.2.6 in Annex L list the budgeteditems for crop development. The budget for PY2-5 is intended to beindicative and to be revised in the course of annual programming andbudgeting.

6.33 Operating costs for PY1 have been budgeted at 50 per cent ofsubsequent years in anticipation of a gradual start up.

6.34 At District level, KIDP will provide field transport forsupervision (a vehicle for the Crops Officer) and operating costs up to30,000 km per year. Sixty days per person per year have been budgetedfor per diems. Incremental office operating costs will be covered up toKsh 12,000 per year. Funds are included for 300 days training forDivisional staff at BLI.

6.35 At Divisional level, the Crops Officer will be provided with amotorcycle and operating costs up to 10,000 km per year. Materials forcrop demonstrations are budgeted for each TA/JTA's working area on thefollowing basis:

- 3 demonstrations, twice a year, 10kg of grain perdemonstration and 6 kg of legume seed per demonstration;

- 1.7 kg of Dipterex and half a litre of pyrethrin per seasonper working area.

6.39 The strategy and rationale for the water conservation progris described in Chapter 2 (paras 2.22 - 2.27).

U*t*r Conservation Outputs

6.40 In the initial years of the Programme priority will be given towater conservation in Mutito and Kyuso Divisions - the more arid partsof the District. Water conservation activities will start in Mwingi andCentral Divisions later in the Programme (see Appendixes 6E and 6F).These more densely populated areas require more reliable perennialsupplies and will be a focus of attention in the proposed surveys ofgroundwater and spring development potential (see Annex F.VIII). Theproposed water conservation programme (Appendixes 6E and 6F) and thechoice of technology could be modified as a result of the findings ofthese surveys.

6.41 Rahabilitation. The Danid* field survey of 269 USAID A8AL waterstructures constructed by MOA and MOWD (see Appendix 6D> showed that 149schemes merit rehabilitation and completion. The immediate priority ofthe Water Conservation programme is to rehabilitate and complete thesewater conservation structures. This rehabilitation will form asignificant part of the work in PY1 - PY4 (see Appendixes 6E and 6F).

6.42 Choice of Technology. Types of water conservation structurewill be determined by local hydrological conditions. Where alternativesexist preference will be given to those options which can be constructedand maintained by local people.

SOIL It WATER CONSERVATION CHAPTER 6t> CROP DEVELOPMENT

5.43 Water conservation structures to b» built under the Programmeinclude the following:

~ Spring protection (S/P), combined with *n offtake pipelineand a number of tap-stations, storage tanks and cattletroughs, has already proved a workable low-cost supplysystem, though complicated by the difficulties of pipelineand tap-station maintenance. Siting is not a problem, butproper protection of the catchment area is very important.Tew springs remain undeveloped in Kitui District, however. Asurvey of potential is proposed (see Annex F).

- Rock Catchments (R/C) are a preferred technology due to theirsimplicity. Siting should take into account community accessand geological conditions.

- Extended Ground Storage Tanks (EQ/T) are applied whereextensive corrugated iron roofs exist (usually at schools).

- Subsurface and Sand Dams (8S/D and S/D) are a tried andtested technology. It is, however, considered necessary tocarry out an evaluation study on Groundwater Dams (see AnnexF) to determine their true effectiveness.

- Small Earth Dams (E/DS) take priority over medium-sizedstructures due to their relative cheapness and ease ofoperation and maintenance. A small reservoir can usually beconstructed with an ox-scoop. Soil conservation measures area pre-requisite for earth dams, otherwise rapid siltationwill drastically shorten their life.

- Shallow Wells (S/W) are wells up to a depth of about 20m.

Ground Tanks (G/T) are no longer considered a viable option due to thereal danger of children and small stock falling in and of contamination.The MOH has recently put a ban on the construction of ground tanks.

In order to arrive at an estimate of the production of the differentwater conservation structures, an average yield figure has beenallocated as follows: S/P, 20m3/dayj R/C, lOm'/day; S/W, Sm'/day; EG/T,0.5ma/day; E/D (small), lOnfVday; E/D (medium), 60m3/dayj S/D and SS/D,5m3/day.

6.44 Selection of new schemes will be done by the community followingthe referral system described in Box 6.1 and illustrated in Appendix 6G.The procedure should ensure that technical feasibility and socialaspects are considered fully before any implementation starts.

6.45 Technical Appraisal. A Site Survey Consultant will becontracted (part time) by the PMU to work under the Senior WaterEngineer of the Water Programme Coordination Unit (see Chapter 3, VolumeI). The Consultant's role will be to assess the technical feasibilityof sites proposed for development (new construction or rehabilitation)by the community, prior to final approval. He will also prepare billsof quantities for the proposed works and verify satisfactory completion(see Annex F.IX).

6.46 Designs. Construction methods will be standardised and will belaid down in a manual, currently under preparation by a Danidaconsultant.tm*

6.47 Subcontracting of skilled works. Where an element of skilledwork is required (e.g. masonry, form work, pipe work) local fundis,acceptable to the local community and MOA, will be subcontracted tocarry out the work. The recommended procedure is set out in Box 6.1.

£•48 Labour. To ensure the sustainability of the water conservationstructure it is vital that the local community participates in itsconstruction. The Programme will provide materials for construction,and funds for the contracting of skilled artisans and for transport, oncondition that all unskilled labour is provided by the local groupwithout charge.

6.49 Supervision of work. The Divisional SCO (under the supervisionof the Divisional Agricultural Extension Officer and the technicalcontrol of the District SCO) will be responsible for supervising thedistribution of materials to the site and the technical supervision ofthe works carried out by the local group committee, which will beresponsible for the materials once they are delivered to the site. Theproject-paid Divisional Assistant Construction Supervisor will assistthe Divisional SCO with controlling the quality of works and generalcoordination. However, responsibility for overall supervision of theMOA's water conservation work under KIDP at the Divisional level willlie with the Divisional SCO of MOA who will prepare quarterly and annualprogress reports for the District SCO (copied to the PMU).

6.50 Training. The GETS (see Chapter 5) will coordinate training forSDAs and local water committees in operation and maintenance proceduresas well as organise courses for maintenance technicians. Trainingcourses will also be given to small contractors to help them acquireskills in bookkeeping, cost accounting, etc. On-the-job training oflocal artisans will be provided by the Assistant ConstructionSupervisor.

6.51 Planning and budgeting. A plan and budget for the followingyear will be prepared in March/April each year. The proposals in thePlan of Operations for PY2-5 will be revised on the basis of performancein PY1.

2. Sub-DDCs consider the project in relation to, for example, theirquota under KIDP and foruard their proposals to the DistrictDevelopment Committee <DDC) via the Divisional DevelopmentCommittee <Div~DDC).

3. The projects approved in principle by the DDC are referred tothe Senior Mater Engineer (SUE) in the KIDP Hater ProgrammeCoordination Unit (HPCU) for consideration in relation topolicy, geographical priorities, etc.

4. Projects approved in principle by the SHE are then evaluatedtechnically by the Site Survey Consultant <SSC). Designs andcost estimates of viable sites are foruarded by the SHE to theProject Steering Committee for final approval and for nominationof the implementing agency <HOHD or HOA). (Hon-viable projectsare also referred back to the VDC and back donn to the Sub-DDC).

5. Tender documents for projects costing over Ksh 20,000 areprepared by the HPCU and submitted to the District Tender Board.Bids are assessed and contractors are nominated. For theseprojects as nell as those projects valued at less than Ksh20,000, the SHE on behalf of KIDP and the implementing ministry(MOHD or HOA) signs contracts uith the appropriatecontractor/artisan.

6.

APPENDIX SDl ABAL MATER PROJECTS SURVEY

Introduction

USAID funded a Urge number of water project* under an ASAL programmebetween 1982 and 1987, When the donor withdrew, many of the projectswere incomplete. An evaluation of all the water project* implementedunder the USAID ASAL Programme in Kitui District was undertaken by aDanida consultant in 198B/89. The consultant (Mr Erik Nissen Petersen)assessed each water project in terms of the advisability of completing,rehabilitating or abandoning it, together with a cost estimate. Out ofthis evaluation exercise has come the rehabilitation programme forPY1-4 within KIDP.

This summary draws extensively upon the written report submitted byMr Petersen. For further details reference should be made to his report(June 1989).

Classification

Following site visits and the completion of a data sheet, the sites weregrouped into the following classes!

Class Status Nos

A 1007. completed *nd functioning water projectsB Diocese of Kitui completingC Danida/Mutomo WSCP completingD Other organisations completingE First priority for completionF Second priority for completionG Third priority for completionH Needing further consideration of

Conclusions

149 of these projects (59%) are considered worth completing orrehabilitating, in addition to the nearly 20'/. that are presently beingcompleted. These 149 form the bulk of the planned K1DP rehabilitationwork for PY1-4. Projects not included (class H above, 32 projects) maybe reconsidered later.

Details of ASAL water projects by Division and type are given in thetable on the following page.

CHARTER ~7

RURAL WATER SUPPLY

Objectives and Strategy

7.1 The immediate objectives of the KIDP support to rural watersupply in Kitui District are as follows:

(a) to strengthen the capacity of the District Water Engineer toimprove the availability of safe and reliable water suppliesfor rural people and their livestock;

<b) to reinforce the capability of rural people to operate andmaintain their own water supplies.

T*rg*t Group

7.2 The target group includes all rural people, but especially thoseliving in the resource-poor, arid and semi-arid areas of the District.Small towns are outside the scope of the Programme in this first phase,but may be considered later.

Rationale

7.3 The strategy and rationale for the rural water supply programmeis described in Chapter 2 of the Plan of Operations (paras 2.22 - 2.27).

7.4 The prime responsibility for supplying water to the communitylies with the MOWD. Tor a number of reasons, including the dispersedsettlement pattern and the absence of perennial sources throughout muchof the District, a number of private and non-government organisations"3

are involved in water supply development in addition to MOWD.

7.5 UNICEF have funded improved water supplies in Kitui Districtsince 1984 and their programme is currently being extended until1993/94. Most of their assistance is channelled through the MOWD, whichaffects its capacity to take on assistance from other donors. Currentemphasis is placed on roof catchments in Primary Schools (100), springprotection (2) and rock catchment construction (2). A limited programmeof shallow well construction and rehabilitation (10) is also envisaged,as is the possibility of a borehole construction programme.

7.6 Water supplies ar^ normally obtained from local waterconservation structures which, although easily constructed andmaintained, have the marked disadvantage of drying up in years ofrainfall failure, exposing people and their animals to severe hardship.

C13 Of these, the most important NGO is the Diocese of Kitui.

KIDP Plan of OperationsSeptember 1989 Voluae II/Page 51

Page 59: FOR ARID AND SEMI-ARID LANDS INTUIT .'ilONAL RFFr ......Map o £ Kitui District S UDAN / KIUFI TAITA TAV£TA /.- *""' • International Boundary — Prcviixial Boundary District Boundary

RURAL MATER SUPPLY CHAPTER 7

7.7 The population of the District is doubling •vary twenty years or |•o and the domestic water supply situation is expected to worsen,especially in the rapidly expanding townships. The search for a _solution to these problems will certainly remain at the top of the Iagenda of the District Water Engineer (DUE) for the foreseeable future. •KIDP is aimed at natural resource conservation and regeneration in aridand semi-arid lands and therefore the pressing problems of urban water Isupply lie outside the scope of KIDPj however, by assisting the MOWD |with the larger of the rural water conservation structures and byfostering an approach which encourages self-reliance among rural mcommunities with respect to operation and maintenance, KIDP will Icontribute in some way to easing the pressure on the DWE's office. Inan attempt to resolve the problem of water security in a drought year,which affects rural people equally if not more seriously than those Iliving in towns, KIDP will carry out a survey of groundwater and spring •development potential in PY1, focusing on the more densely populatedareas of the District (see Annex F). •

Outputs _

7.8 Geographical Priority. In the initial years priority will be •given to Mutito and Kyuso Divisions as they are situated in the drierparts of the District. Work in Mwingi and Central Divisions will fljcommence later in the Programme. Mutomo will receive lowest priority in •view of the work done by MSWCP in Mutomo Division over the period 1982-89. Annual and Divisional work programmes and physical targets are •shown in Appendixes 7A and 7B. The proposed water conservation fprogramme and the choice of technology could be modified as a result ofthe findings of the surveys of groundwater and spring development £potential scheduled for PY1. I

7.9 Rehabilitation. The rehabilitation and completion of existingwater projects, especially those started under the previous A3AL Mprogramme will constitute a significant part of the first year's work.MOWD also proposes to commence rehabilitation of silted dams in thefirst year.123 This rehabilitation work will allow time for the midentification of new sites (or further sites requiring rehabilitation). IPY2-5 will see a shift in emphasis from rehabilitation to newconstruction in response to community-identified developments.

7.10 Water Supply Technology. Types of scheme to be constructed by VMOWD will include those already listed in Chapter £ (para. £.43) for theMOA. However, the MOWD will concentrate on those KIDP water •conservation structures which require a larger engineering input in |design and supervision. KIDP will provide building materials, transportcosts and skilled labour on condition that local people provide all _construction labour free of charge and take over responsibility for •operation and maintenance of the structure once it is completed. *

[23 It is essential for earth dam construction to be accompanied bysoil conservation measures upstream by the MOA. Because of the need tomobilise the local community for this work, earth dam construction needsan appropriate lead time.

CHAPTER 7 RURAL WATER SUPPLY

7.11 Choice of Technology. Usually, the type of water conservationstructure will be determined by local hydrological conditions. Wherealternatives exist, preference will be given to those options whichallow active community participation in construction and maintenance.

7.12 Selection of New Schemes will be initiated by the communityfollowing the system illustrated in Appendix 6G, described in Box 6.1and in Chapter 2 (paras 2.6 - 2.10) and Chapter 4 (paras 4.16 - 4.21).

7.13 Technical Appraisal. A Site Survey Consultant will becontracted (part time) by the PMU to work under the Senior WaterEngineer of the Water Programme Coordination Unit (see Chapter 3). Hisrole will be to assess the technical feasibility of sites proposed fordevelopment (new construction or rehabilitation) by the community, priorto final approval (see Annex F.IX).

7.14 Allocation of Work between IJOA and MQWD; Once a scheme has beenapproved for construction by the DDC and the Site Survey Team haveconfirmed its technical suitability, the Senior Water Engineer in theWPCU, the DUE and the DAO will reach agreement within the ProgrammeSteering Committee on which ministry will carry out the work. Thedecision will depend upon the technical complexity of the scheme, thecurrent work plans of the implementing ministries and their staffdeployment in the District.

7.15 Subcontr,,,ac.t.ing. Wherever possible, skilled construction work(e.g. masonry, form work, pipe work) will be subcontracted to localartisans who will be encouraged to compete for the work for smallerconstruction works such as tanks, rock catchments etc. Local peoplewill also be encouraged to enter into transport contracts for themovement of construction materials, for example locally crushed stonefor ballast and locally quarried building stone for masonry. It willnot be necessary to bring in ballast from Nairobi, a practice which ledto problems and high costs on the previous USAID ASAL project.

7.16 Work on larger structures, such as the construction of new orthe desilting of old medium-sized dams, will be subcontracted inentirety, including design, to qualified contractors. This will benecessary as MQWD does not have the required earth-moving equipment.The normal tender procedures as prescribed by the District Tender Boardwill be followed.

7.17 Tender documents will specify standard construction methods. Amanual containing this information is currently being prepared by aDanida consultant. " 3

7.18 Supervision of Work.

CHARTER S

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT

Objectives

S.I The following objectives emerged from the MOLD workshop at theBetter Living Institute, Kitui, 7 April 1989.tia

Long-Term Objectives

a) Improvement of livestock production in Kitui District in theface of increasingly adverse circumstances.

b) Establishment systems of sustainable land use.

c) Reduction of the risks and uncertainties faced by farmers byhelping them to cope with drought and animal diseases.

d) Development of self-reliance among farmers.

Immediate Objectives

a) Range Managementt (i) Establishment of pasture and browsespecies which will improve stock performance (meat, milk and/ordraft) and enhance soil fertility and control/reduce soilerosion and run-off. (ii) Development of stock waterfacilities.

b) Disease Control: Reduction of the incidencein the District in all classes of stock.

of animal diseases

c) Livestock Production: Improvement of the overall standard ofanimal husbandry in the District.

d) Marketing; (i) Improvement of the marketing of livestock andlivestock products as well as inputs. (ii) Assistance toproducers with the marketing of livestock in drought-relatedemergencies.

Target Sroup

8.2 Target groups include:

- all farmers, including poor small stock owners who are exposed tostock losses from epizootic diseases;

- individuals and groups, especially the resource-poor, who needassistance with improving the long-term productivity of theirland and animals.

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 8

Rationale

B.3 The principal conclusion of the socio-economic survey carried outas part of the Livestock Sector Study"3 was that farmers faced increasingdifficulties in raising livestock in Kitui District due to the growingpressure on pastoral resources arising from:

- increased human population and subdivision of land;

- the increase of cropping at the expense of grazing;

- loss of seasonal grazing lands through their permanentsettlement or insecurity.

8.4 A second conclusion was that arable and grazing land in Ukambaniwas more or less taken up and that the opportunities for households tocolonise new lands no longer existed. Farmers were increasingly seekingways of investing their labour in land improvements and fencing theirboundaries.

8.5 A third conclusion of the socio-economic survey was that thedroughts of the last few decades had been a major factor in theimpoverishment of many households who had been forced to sell their stockand land to purchase food and essential items. Some 25 per cent ofhouseholds had no stock to cushion them against another drought.

8.6 The fourth long-term objective arose from a realisation thatGovernment was not in a position to maintain the level of supportingservices provided in the past. Self-reliance or self-help impliesvoluntary participation by people in the conviction that an activity is intheir interest. Subsidies should be avoided as far as possible, not onlybecause of the drain on public resources, but also because they inducepeople to undertake tasks in which they have no faith.

8.7 There is strong evidence that, consequent upon the growing shortageof land, farmers are increasingly interested in advice on and assistancewith land improvement. With improved pastoral management the land couldprobably support at least double the number of animals except in extremelydry years. Stock water availability has decreased as a result of riverbeds and wells drying up earlier in the dry season. Public watering pointshave broken down or have been closed to animals. Farmers (individuals andgroups) urgently need help with the planning of on-farm stock-wateringfacilities.

8.8 Evidence produced by the survey indicated increasing losses fromlivestock diseases, particularly among small stock. Improving the capacityof the veterinary services to carry out routine disease control and torespond to outbreaks is essential.

CHAPTER 8 LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT

8.9 The growing scarcity of pastoral resources and the loss ofopportunity for seasonal movement provide farmers with new challenges.They need technical advice and assistance to adapt to these changingcircumstances, particularly in the fields of nutrition, breeding and animalhealth.

8.10 Farmers can increase and diversify their sources of income byimproving the quality of livestock and animal products. The extent towhich off-take can be increased and market opportunities improved by theprovision of infrastructure (sale yards, auction yards etc.) is not clear,although holding grounds with water supplies are essential if animals areto be marketed from areas in which quarantine orders are in force and forthe off-take of stock in drought-related emergencies.

ActivHits RecoBMended by HOLD

8.11 The activities specified by the MOLD Kitui Workshop, April 1989, asbeing necessary to achieve the above-listed objectives were as follows:

(a) Range Management

- demonstration plots in each Division to train governmentextension personnel and livestock owners (small farmers andgroups) on area-specific fodder production and conservationtechniques (high potential areas) and range improvement (bushclearing, exclosure, rotational grazing etc.) in lower-potentialareas;

- local bulking/multiplication plots to provide grass and legumeseed and fodder-tree seedlings to farmers;

- demonstrations of on-farm water storage; construction of off-farm storage (dams, weirs, rock catchments, boreholes etc.);

field days, barazas and scheduled visits by MOLD extensionpersonnel to organised groups for "method" and "result"demonstrations and advice on stocking rates, etc.;

- advice and assistance to cooperative ranches.

(b) Livestock Production:

- Input supply: improved breeds (e.g. Gal la goats, Sahiwal cattle;hybrid cocks) through cost-sharing, cockerel exchange etc.;equipment (coops, hives);

- advice and assistance to individuals and groups on stockmanagement (e.g. feeds and feeding, health, breeding, etc.).

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 8

(c) Marketing

- infrastructure (e.g. holding grounds, sale yards, auction yards,abattoirs);

- advice on market requirements and opportunities throughadvertisements, bulletins, etc.;

- market regulation and grading;

- assistance with the formation and utilization of groups formarketing (including input supply, processing and manufacture,e.g. hides and skins);

- assistance with emergency off-take.

(d) Disease Control

- ruminants: yearly vaccination against CBPP, CCPP, rinderpest,anthrax, black quarter, lumpy skin disease; quarantine tocontain foot-and-mouth disease; chemoprophylaxis for stock inareas of trypanosomiasis risk; anthelmintics for helminthiasis;zonal strategic dipping/spraying against tick-borne diseases;

vaccination against Newcastle's disease, fowl typhoid,fowl pest; chemoprophylaxis against coccidiosis etc.;

~ canines and donkeys; vaccination and baiting to control rabies;anthelmintics to control helminthiasis, etc.

(e) Extension: advice on disease control and animal health.

Priorities

8.12 Apart from the general agreement that:

in future in Kitui District, work with groups of small farmerson their own holdings should receive a higher priority thantrying to organise farmers within group ranches, and

- preventive health should receive more emphasis than clinicalwork throughout the District,

there was an understandable reluctance at the Workshop to set aside any ofthe standard interventions as being of lower priority. However, given theremoteness of much of the District and the scarcity of manpower andfinancial resources (see Appendix 8A), it is necessary to identifystrategic areas for KIDP support in the livestock sector.

8.13 Although a particular activity, for example dairy extension, maynot be excluded from the MOLD work programme in Kitui District, its fundingis expected to be relatively limited. Similarly, the justification forexpenditure on cattle breed improvement is stronger in the more humidupland areas of Central and Mwingi Divisions than in Kyuso, Hutito orMutomo. On the other hand, .advice and assistance in the field of rangemanagement, as opposed to the production of fodder crops, is of higherpriority in the lower and more arid "millet and livestock" and "ranching"

CHAPTER 8 LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT

zones than in the "maize" zone. In the outlying districts, especiallyKyuso and Mutito, where people are most dependent on their animals forsurvival, the administrative infrastructure (e.g. buildings and transport)of the MOLD is most in need of strengthening.

Logistic Support

B.14 An important conclusion which emerged from the Livestock SectorStudy is the difficulty of implementing an expanded work programme withouta major investment in administrative infrastructure and transport. Thiswas the experience of the second phase of the USAID Kitui ASAL Projectwhich provided funds for an extended work plan for the MOLD, but failed tomake provision for the necessary logistic support.

8.15 Thus under KIDP, high priority will be given to providing therequired buildings and transport and operating costs both at Divisional andat District level. This is a precondition for the implementation of eventhe routine work of the Veterinary and Livestock Production personnelwithin the District.

Staff Harking Conditions and Incentives

8.16 Clearly, the provision of buildings and transport must go hand inhand with the implementation of an agreed work plan and the re-introductionof routine management procedures. Again, the KIDP-supported programme willstart from a narrow base. Currently the MQLD, particularly in the AnimalProduction Department, are at a virtual standstill because of the depletionof the operating budgets for transport, materials, equipment and travel andsubsistence.

8.17 A major objective for the next two years will be the strengtheningof the MOLD operational budget at District, Divisional and Locationallevels so as to put to work the cadre of recently qualified staff. Fundsshould also be set aside for further training of staff because the chanceof obtaining training opportunities is a powerful incentive to improvedperformance. This provision is made within the budget of the PMU(unallocated).

Outputs

Veterinary Department Outputs

8.IB The first priority in the improvement of livestock production isalways the control of epidemic diseases. Little progress in any other fieldis possible until at least a measure of control has been established.Protection of animals against epizootic diseases, especially small stock(sheep and goats), is probably the most effective way of helping resource-poor farmers, especially in drought years when animals are particularlyprone to disease and when households are most dependent on their stock.

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 8

B.19 CCPP Vaccinations District veterinary records and the socio-economic survey both indicate that CCPP is on the increase in the Districtand is a major cause of goat mortality. It is proposed that CCPP preventionand control be financed by KIDP. However, the mass vaccination of goats inthe District will require detailed planning, the setting of realistictargets, a work plan which takes account of the size and distribution offlocks within the District, and built-in monitoring and evaluation.

8.20 In PY1, KIDP will finance a comprehensive field inventory of animaldisease in the District, (see Annex F) including clinical and laboratoryconfirmation to determine the extent and severity of CCPP in the District.If the investigation confirms that CCPP prevention is a high priority, aproject document will be prepared which specifies the project objectivesand targets, mode of implementation and clearly defines the monitoring andevaluation arrangements for a mass CCPP vaccination campaign in theDistrict. The plan would be prepared in consultation with the VeterinaryDepartment. Particular attention would be given to the following:

- the number of animals to be vaccinated in each geographical zoneto obtain the required flock immunity;

- a critical appraisal of the capacity of the laboratories atMuguga to provide CCPP vaccine to the project and the costsinvolved;

- proposals for pilot trials in PY2 covering one Division in theDistrict, comprising: an evaluation of alternative operationalapproaches; a pre- and post-vaccination monitoring system,including serological evaluation to test conferred immunity,adverse reactions to the vaccine, etc; an assessment of thelikely response of owners and the extension effort needed toprepare stock owners for a wider programme of preventive animalhealth, including payment for vaccines and drugs.

8.21 The preliminary investigations, pilot trial and subsequentextension of the programme to the remaining Divisions of the District inPY3 will be supervised by a technically qualified veterinarian (localconsultant) who will interpret disease patterns and the effect ofvaccination.

8.22 Mass cattle vaccination: KIDP will support the resumption of aDistrict-wide mass vaccination programme against Rinderpest and CBPP. Thisprovision would allow the Veterinary Department to use the currentallocation for Disease and Pest Control (Code 299 and 513) of aboutKsh 200,000 per annum (see Appendix 8A) for the necessary ad hoc measuresto control other notifiable diseases (e.g. lumpy skin, Anthrax, BlackQuarter). The work plan will take account of the Disease Prevalence Surveyto be conducted in the District in PY1 (see Annex F).

CHAPTER 8 LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT

8.23 In PY1, the programme would be implemented in two Divisions, and inthree Divisions in PY2, etc. By the fourth year, the programme should coverthe whole District. The mass vaccination of cattle will require detailedplanning, the setting of realistic targets, a work plan which takes accountof the size and distribution of herds within the District, and built-inmonitoring and evaluation. Details of the coming year's campaign would beset out in the annual work plan and budget in the March preceding thefinancial year of implementation.

8.24 Hides and Skins: KIDP will support the proper execution of theroutine extension work of the H&S Section throughout the District. H&Sinspectors in each Division will visit the weekly markets under thesupervision of the District H&S Inspector. They will advise producers asthey bring their skins for sale to MOLD licensed dealers, whose activitieswill also be controlled by MOLD staff in keeping with GOK ordinances.Routine reports will be maintained according to the regulations in force.Demonstrations will be conducted by H&S staff at Divisional field days andon other appropriate occasions. The coming year's work plan will bedetailed in the annual work plan in the Marchof implementation.

preceding the financial year

Livestock Production department Outputs

8.25 Currently, the main problems of the Department (Range, AnimalProduction and Marketing sections) relate to the lack of officeaccommodation and transport for routine extension work. The main strategyin each section is to devote the first year to staff training and programmeplanning so that, when transport and buildings are completed in PY2,implementation can be intensified. The DLPO will be advised and assisted bya Livestock Development Officer (Kenyan Expert) funded by KIDP.

8"26 Range Management: Theactivities:

work of this section embraces the following

(i) demonstration plots to train government extension personnel andlivestock owners (small farmers and groups) on area-specificfodder production and conservation techniques in high-potentialareas and range improvement (bush clearing, enclosure, rotationalgrazing etc.) in lower-potential areas;

(ii) local bulking/multiplication plots to provide grass and legumeseed and fodder-tree seedlings to farmers;

(iii) demonstrations of on-farm water storage} planning of off-farmstorage (dams, weirs, rock catchments, boreholes etc.);

Civ) field days, barazas and scheduled visits to organised groups for"method" and "result" demonstrations;

(v) advice and assistance to cooperative and group ranches.

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 8

B.27 A detailed work plan and budget will be prepared by Range staff ineach Division (in close consultation with the MOA and the relevant farmers'groups at local level) in March 1991 (PY1) for implementation in PY2. Thework plan, incorporating the above elements (i) to (v), will be based onthe clear understanding that KIDP support to the department is conditionalupon close cooperation with the MOA (Soil and Water Conservation) in theplanning and implementation of range rehabilitation and fodder production.This applies at all levels, Sub-Locational to District.

8.28 During PY1, there will be a strong emphasis on the training ofextension staff (Divisional and Locational level), planning demonstrationareas, identifying groups and demonstration sites, establishing mother seedmultiplication plots and so on.

8.29 Animal Production: The work of this section embraces the followingactivities;

(i) input supply: improved breeds (e.g. Galla goats, Sahiwal cattle;hybrid cocks) through cost sharing, cockerel exchange etc;equipment (coops, hives);

(ii) advice and assistance to individuals and groups on stockmanagement (e.g. feeds and feeding, health, breeding, etc.)

8.30 Goats! Under Phase II of the USAID Kitui ASAL Project, it. wasproposed to purchase and re-sell improved goats to interested farmers. Inthe event, the Project found it more straightforward to support theexisting Diocese of Kitui QASP Ranch. This programme was reviewed in thecourse of the Livestock Sector Study and was recommended for furthersupport. However, a decision on the scope and content of such support willhave to be the subject of a more detailed review. It is proposed that sucha review be carried out in PY1 by the Animal Production Section and that aproject document be submitted to KIDP for financing in PY2.

8.31 Poultry; The supply of hybrid cocks is supported in the District bythe RDF and the Poultry Development Project. The MSWCP also financed thesupply of poultry. It is not proposed to extend direct support to thisactivity under KIDP without a rigorous evaluation of the situation withinthe District and the impact of previous interventions. However, staffengaged in poultry extension work would benefit from the improvedinfrastructural support provided to MOLD by KIDP.

8.32 Beeg: The Livestock Sector Study concluded that, with the advent ofTARDA support, bee production in the District will be much improved.Assistance by KIDP will be confined to providing the responsible officer atDistrict level with the necessary subsistence allowance and vehicleoperating costs to conduct a study in PY1 of:

(a) the problem of low occupancy of KTB hives (approximately 20 percent as compared with 90 per cent for traditional log hives);

(b) the best way to assist women's groups to adopt honey production asa source of off-farm income.

Bee development proposals could then be considered by KIDP during theannual review scheduled for March 1991.

CHAPTER 8 LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT

8.33 Crossbred Cattle: KIDP assistance would be confined to logisticsupport for routine extension work carried out by MOLD staff at Districtand Divisional level.

B.34 Marketing: The possible interventions within the current free-market situation include the following:

(a) the provision of infrastructure (e.g. holding grounds, sale yards,auction yards, abattoirs);

(b) advice on market requirements and opportunities throughadvertisements, bulletins, etc.;

(c) market regulation and grading;

(d) assistance with the formation and utilization of groups formarketing (including input supply, processing and manufacture, e.g.hides and skins);

(e) assistance with emergency offtake by improving (a), (b) and Cd),

8.35 Given the present state of knowledge about the livestock marketingsituation in Kitui District, none of the above-listed interventions wouldqualify for immediate support. It is proposed that during PY1 and PY2, theDistrict Livestock Marketing Officer should carry out the necessaryinvestigations, formulate detailed proposals and submit a project documentto the joint GOK/Danida KIDP Evaluation mission planned for the first halfof PY3. The study should would take close account of the impact of the EDFASAL Livestock Development Programme1133 in Districts to the north andnorth-east. The study should aim to come up with practical proposals forassisting with emergency offtake in drought years.

Staff 1 raining

8.36 The DVD and DLPO will be able to draw on the Community Educationand Training Section of the PMU to provide orientation for frontline,Divisional as well as District-level staff. Courses and workshops to trainstaff in specific technical aspects of the proposed programme (e.g.preventive animal health, fodder production and conservation) will also bearranged through the CET Section who would obtain the assistance ofspecialists from appropriate Kenyan institutions. Training in programmebuilding (community development) techniques will also be provided (seeChapter S).

LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 8

8.37 Regular staff training sessions are organised under the NationalExtension Project. These courses are separately conducted for MOLD and MOAstaff. The MOA TAs are far more numerous than MOLD TAs, especially in thehigher potential areas of Mwingi and Central Divisions. KIDP will seek thecooperation of the implementing ministries with a view to holding regularjoint sessions and to devising, testing and implementing an integrated(crops and animals) soil and water conservation package for mixed farms inthe higher potential adjudicated areas.

Inputs

Buildings for MOLD

8.38 Buildings at Divisional Level: Currently the buildings available tothe MOLD staff at Divisional level are extremely inadequate. KIDP willfinance the construction and equipping of a Livestock Development Centrefor the Veterinary and Livestock Production Departments at three DivisionalHQs, Kyuso, Mutito and Mwingi. Each unit will consist of basic staffhousing, storage, office accommodation and a simple laboratory for fielddiagnosis. Laboratory samples will continue to be sent to Kabete for morecomplex investigation.

8.39 Construction will commence in PY1 at all three Divisional siteswith the objective of having the centres fully equipped and operational bythe middle of PY2.

8.40 Buildings at District Level; The Livestock Production Department iscurrently borrowing office accommodation from the MOA and the ASALprogramme in different parts of the District office complex. The crampedaccommodation for the livestock team was reported as a major constraintduring Phase II of the USAID Kitui ASAL Project and the situation has notimproved since then. The expansion of the ABAL office under KIDP willcreate additional space for the DLPO and his staff within the existing ASALcomplex. KIDP will support the furnishing of this accommodation.

8.41 The expanded mass vaccination programme in the District will createthe need for more storage facilities at the District Veterinary HQ. A SGm2

drug and vaccine store will be constructed and equipped in PY2. Designs andtender documents will be prepared in PY1. Two offices for the DivisionalVeterinary Officer, Central District, will be added at the same time.

An allocation of 120 training days a year forchiefs, sub-chiefs, group leaders, etc. is included.

8.44 Veterinary Department Staffing: At District level, per diems forsupervisory staff up to a limit of 60 days per year are included. AtDivisional level, per diems are budgeted at the rate of 60 days per yearfor supervisory staff and 30 days per year for frontline staff (see Tables4.2.1 - 4.2.6, Annex L).

Livestock Production Department Inputs

8.45 District Level: KIDP will provide a 4WD LWB Station Wagon andmotorbikes (3) for subject matter specialists in HQ and operating costs upto the level set out in Table 4.2.1. Incremental office running costs andtraining (120 person days per year) are also budgeted. Operating costs inPY1 are estimated at 50 per cent of subsequent years in anticipation of agradual start up.

B.46 Divisional Level: Each Division will be provided with threemotorbikes, bicycles (8) and a 4WD LWB pick-up during the first two yearsof the Programme. Transport provision by KIDP in PY2 will be conditionalupon the DLPO preparing the work plans in PY1 to justify the expenditure onvehicles. Subject to the same condition, KIDP will provide transport andoffice operating costs, per diems and Divisional training courses (120person days per year) for chiefs, sub-chiefs, group leaders, etc.

8.47 Stflffjng: At District level, per diems at the rate of 60 days peryear per specialist have been budgeted. Per diems have also been budgetedfor Divisional level staff (see Tables 4.2.1 - 4.2.6, Annex L).

APPENDIX B - LIVESTOCK PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT CHAPTER 8

One of the immediate effects of forming a separate ministry for thelivestock sector in 1988 was the disruption of administrative proceduresand loss of office space and vehicles. Nowhere is the problem moreacutely felt than in the District HQ in Kitui where small offices, ontemporary loan from the USAID ASAL project, are shared by five or sixofficers. At the Divisional level, staff are housed in the honeycollection centres constructed under Phase II of the USAID ASAL Project.

Objectives

9.1 Within the overall Programme objectives, KIDP wil l assist theDistrict Forest Department with a view to:

a) conserving the catchment areas of perennial springs;

b) producing and distributing seedlings for on-farm tree-plantingand, where necessary, for hi l l - top conservation;

c) supporting the RAES which aims to increase communityparticipation in tree planting and conservation measures.

Target Group

9.2 Target groups wi l l include:

- upstream and downstream populations within and below specificcatchment locations;

- individuals, groups and institutions, especially those in themore densely populated parts of the District where naturalresources are under most pressure;

- the staff of the District Forest Department, especially thefrontline staff, for the purpose of both technical andmanagement (public relations) sk i l ls training.

Rationale

Conservation of Hill Catchments

9.3 Almost all springs in Kitui District are located high in thehills and are found mainly in five areas: Mumoni, Nuu, Endau, Mutha andon the north-south ridge separating Central and Mutito Divisions. Inorder to protect these valuable water sources, which are to be developedwith KIDP resources, it is a matter of urgency that conservationmeasures be undertaken by the Forest Department within the catchmentareas of perennial springs.

9.4 The hills gazetted as forest reserves - Mumoni, Nuu, Mutito,Museve, Kyawea and Kabonge (See Appendix 9A) - are all well protectedunder the Forest Act enforced by the Forest Department. " 3

FORESTRY CHAPTER 9

9.5 Of the remaining hills identified as important water catchments,Endau, Mutha and Mutuluni are surveyed, but not gazetted as forestreserves. Of these the spring catchment on the prominent inselberg ofEndau, in an otherwise waterless part of liutito Division, isdeteriorating due to widespread farming in the upper zones along thecrest. Until a decade or so ago, the hill was free of cultivation butpopulation pressure and a run of dry years on the plains below haveresulted in increasing encroachment on the catchment reserve, where thehumid forest soils are greatly valued by local people for yam andvegetable growing.

9.6 It is difficult to justify closure to subsistence farmers whosee reservation as a denial of their traditional rights to grazing andcultivation. Their marginal economic situation does not incline them toshow interest in the fate of others living downstream; they do not knowor care about the importance of regulated flows of clear water.Planning, implementation and follow up requires a strong technicalcapability, political commitment and popular support.

5.7 These inselberg and hill-top forests are generally too remotefor economic timber extraction and are best re-established as catchmentreserves by closure and protection from grazing, cultivation and bushfires so as to allow natural regeneration of woody species to takeplace. Soil and water conservation measures (e.g. micro-catchments) andreplanting should be carried out only in those areas where thevegetation cover has been degraded and the topsoil removed.

Forestry in the LoHland Semi-Arid Areas

9.B It is now clear (which it was not twenty years ago) that treeplantations in Kenya are unsuccessful in areas with less than 800mm ofrainfall, except where trees can be irrigated. Under these conditions"fast-growing" exotics grow scarcely faster than the pre-existingvegetation and are out-performed by indigenous species in drought years.As a result, the low esteem in which bushland used to be held is givingway to the recognition that previous estimates of natural woodlandproductivity may have been too low and that, even at low incrementlevels, there are tens of thousands of hectares to be exploited forcharcoal.Ea3 Most indigenous arid zone trees and shrubs continue togrow even when browsed, burned and coppiced, and more protection leadsto much increased productivity.

C2] The Kenya Rangeland Ecological Monitoring Unit (KREMU) conducted avegetation survey in the District as part of the USAID-funded KituiDistrict Water Resources Study (Volume 4, Annex F, EnvironmentalAnalysis, Louis Berger Int. Nairobi, 1983). They concluded that much ofthe lowland bush country could be usefully and profitably exploited forcharcoal production on a sustained yield basis under the control andsupervision of the Forest Department.

CHAPTER 9 FORESTRY

9.9 Good rains for Acacia establishment only occur every decade ortwo and woodlands tend to consist of large numbers of even-aged trees.The need is to ensure that more young established seedlings and saplingssurvive to adulthood. It is estimated that such protection wouldprobably be hundreds of times more effective in reafforesting the aridzone than attempts to plant trees.

Hurseries and Agroforestry

9.10 Agroforestry should play an important role in improvedagricultural practices in the more humid, upland areas of the District.Planting of fodder, fruit, timber and shade trees is encouraged by MENR,MOA and MOLD and strongly supported by national leaders. The practice isreadily accepted by farmers in those areas where much of the land isalready subdivided into family farms and where there is a shortage offirewood and poles. In the drier, lowland areas, there is much lessincentive to plant and care for seedlings as supplies of fuel andbuilding material, although depleted, are still readily available onunenclosed land.

9.11 Because of the problems involved in distributing seedlings in abrief period during the rains, when farmers are busy sowing crops, onlythose people in the vicinity of the nursery can be effectively reached.

9.12 One of the major problems which has to be addressed by thoserecommending agroforestry in the drier lowland areas is the issue ofcommon property rights <CPRs). Rural people usually want to plant treesonly on permanently owned land, often only as a cash crop, and onlywhere land in general is so short that there is no state or communally-owned bush or forest nearby from which tree products may be takenwithout the trouble of growing them. In the drier lowland parts of KituiDistrict, this rules out the likelihood of successful villager tree-planting projects. Forests and woodlands, though dwindling, still coverthousands of hectares and will continue to be used by the populationswho live near them for most purposes for the forseeable future. TheDistrict's Acacia woodlands are fairly heavily used, in part as CPRs.In these areas trees &re generally stunted, grass-cover is sparse, andtrees are extensively used for browse by domestic animals in addition tomeeting a variety of human needs. Vegetation is often ruthlessly clearedfor cultivation.

9.13 Thus for both practical and ecological reasons, the ForestDepartment gives priority to the development of nurseries and thepromotion of agroforestry in the more densely settled areas of Centraland Mwingi Divisions.

FORESTRY CHAPTER 9

The Rural Afforestation Extension Service <RflES>

9.14 The RAES, under the District Forest Extension Officer,Divisional Forestry Extension Officers and Technical Officers atLocational level, is the principal government agency charged withforestry extension. In this respect, the role of the other lineministries, e.g, Agriculture and Education, is to supplement the workdone by the Forestry Department. However, in parts of the District, forexample in Mutomo Division where the MSWCP has established separatenurseries under the MOA, the Forest Department is no longer pre-eminentin forestry extension. Project-run nurseries lie side by side withForest Department nurseries and compete for scarce funds for inputs. Inmany instances the nurseries are "supply" rather than "demand driven"and over-mature seedlings are left unplanted from season to season.

9.15 The primary aim of the RAES is to impart tree-growing skills tofarmers and promote simple and inexpensive but effective methods andmaterials. It is the policy of the Kenya Forestry Department113' to haveat least one Technical Officer in each Location and one nursery in eachDivision. These are meant to serve primarily as demonstration nurseries.As such they should be well run, have a maximum diversity ofagroforestry species well adapted to the local conditions and localneeds, act as seed orchards and experiment with technically difficultspecies.

9.16 RAES nurseries should also serve as storage and distributiondepots for materials in support of tree-planting groups and individuals.RAES should not aim to increase steadily the number of seedlings itdistributes, but rather to increase the quantity and quality of treeseed it makes available to farmers and groups.

Resources of the District Forest department

3.17 The diversion of funds into the agroforestry enterprises run byother agencies has seriously affected the capacity of the DFO to carryout his routine regulatory and extension functions. Currently there areonly three forestry vehicles operational in the District <see Appendix96). These are frequently off the road as they are all over ten yearsold and in need of major overhaul. The situation is made more difficultby the fact that departmental vehicles are required to travel to remoteareas on unmade roads at all times of the year.

9.18 The Forest Department annual report for 1988 comprises a longcatalogue of activities which failed to take place for lack of funds.The recurrent budgetary allocation for the DFO (1988/89) (see Appendix9C), who controls 335 staff (see Appendix 9D) amounts to Ksh 554,000,about one tenth of the bill for salaries and wages (about Ksh 5.4million annually).

CHAPTER 9 FORESTRY

Outputs

Regulatory Functions

9.19 KIDP will provide infrastructural support to the District ForestDepartment (transport and offices at Divisional level) to enable it tocarry out its regulatory functions within the District better,especially the policing of gazetted reserves and the gazettement ofimportant catchments which remain outstanding (Appendix 9A).

5.20 The DFO will be able to call upon the services of the CommunityEducation and Training Section of the PMU for the purpose of mobilisingpopular support for particular conservation measures in specificcatchment areas.

Agroforestry Extension

9.21 KIDP will support the RAES as the main Government organisationfor the promotion of agroforestry extension in the District. Initially,resources will be provided for the rehabilitation of Divisionalnurseries in Central and Mwingi Divisions (Nzeeu and Nzeluni). Nurseriesin these Divisions will receive priority over the nurseries in drier,lower-potential Divisions. The nurseries of institutions and groupswithin these Divisions would qualify for material support from the RAESwith resources provided by KIDP.

9.22 Subject to the agreement of the DAO Kitui, the KIDP budget forthe running of the school nursery programme and the central nurseries inMutomo Division will be transferred to the DFO. This will allow therationalisation of the nurseries in Mutomo where MOA and ForestDepartment exist side by side.

Inputs

9.23 Tables 5.1.1 - 5.1.6 in Annex L show the forestry budget for theProgramme period. The budget for PY2 to PY5 is indicative and will bereviewed in March 1991 in the course of the annual programming andbudgeting exercise.

9.24 The main expenditure at District level is for vehicles (two 4WDlong-wheel-base pick-ups - one each for the DFO and the DFEO - andrunning costs (30,000 km per year per vehicle) and a tractor for use intransporting nursery materials and clearing firelines in Central andMwingi Divisions. KIDP will meet the cost of per diems up to 120 daysper annum for the DFO and the DFEO, or other staff at the discretion ofthe DFO and DFEO.

FORESTRY CHAPTER 9

9.25 At the Divisional level, KIDP will provide motorbikes, bicyclesand operating costs for Divisional Forestry extension staff throughoutthe District, but support to nurseries and group nurseries willinitially be confined to Mwingi and Central Divisions, The ForestDepartment will be provided with an office and store (28 square metres)in the KIDP office blocks at Kyuso, Mwingi and Mutito.

9.26 Per diems will be provided to Div.FEOs up to a total of GO daysper year. This will enable them to attend District training sessions andcarry out regular field supervision of TOs. Per diems will be paid tofrontline staff CTOs) - 30 days per year - to enable them to attendroutine training sessions at Divisional and District level.
