1. Orientation course for Ethiopian Team on NRM and Rainfed Agriculture - Overall structure

2. Participatory Development of Natural Resources (Land, Water and Trees) Demand-driven approach (net planning, direct funding to the community) Better fund flow upto the last level (transfer of funds directly into the bank account of labourers and other service providers) Integration of watershed programme with Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) Intensive use of Information Technology (IT)

3. Sustainable and Equitable Management of Developed Natural Resource Pooling of Bore well water for sharing with those who do have wells; and using it for critical irrigation to rainfed crops Moving from conservation of soil to improvement in health of soil (through addition of biomass based organic manure) Natural regeneration of tree component in common land through social fencing; before making investment on plantation of new trees (Based upon the experiences in Ananthapur district)

4. New paradigm in Rainfed Farming System Agriculture System of Rice Intensification (SRI) Non-pesticidal methods of pest management (NPM) Processing of NPM produce (red gram) at village level NPM shop for production and supply of inputs at local level Community managed seeds system (CMSS)

5. New paradigm in Rainfed Farming System Livestock for poor Fattening of ram lamb and goat kids Reduction in mortality through community managed preventive vaccination, day-care centre for goat kids, Community managed insurance and night shelters Backyard poultry (rearing of BYP by individual households and collective marketing of eggs by the CBOs) Easing Bullock draft constraints

6.
