1 1.Water productivity and runoff gains from water logged soils Vertisols Other soils with in high rainfall areas Drainable (2-8% slope) Non drainable (<2% Slope) Topographic data (GIS) 1. Drainage + WH + Improved Crop management 2. Crop selection + Improved Crop Management Potential Interventions Modeling: Crop Water Productivity Current VS option 1, 2 Potential Models: AquaCrop, Budget, CropWat, APSIM Weather, Soil, Crop data Met. Stations, RCM, research stations Crop WP Excess Water Crop WP Excess Water Crop and Livestock Water Productivity in BNB

2 2. Crop and livestock productivity through RWMS Crop WP Livestock WP Crop Livestock management practices Weather Feed from non agri. land Feed Water Modeling: Crop WP Current VS RWMS Potential Models: AquaCrop, Budget, CropWat, APSIM Feed +Water Soil Field survey by students? Management: Current Vs Improved Senarios Input data Map + Management practices (Students) Laboratory data + Sediment quality (students) Review + Field survey RCM +weather stations Other feed sources eg. concentrate

3 Implications at Basin Scale Results from 1 and 2 are at landscape/farming system scale A similarity Analysis to identify areas in the basin represented by landscapes in 1 and 2 Analysis at basin scale would be done under necessary assumptions – Simple spreadsheet may be used
