سازگاری با تغییرات اقلیمی با رویکرد ارزیابی فرصت‏ها و چالش‏ها در مقیاس حوزه آبخیز

Watershed management and natural resources measures including management, mechanical and biological projects are carried out to crucial renewable resources (water, vegetation and soil) and sustaining agriculture and soil fertility. However, serious concerns have been enhanced due to climate continues change impacts. This Research was carried out in the Razin watershed, Kermanshah Iran . The objective of this research was to evaluate the watershed management projects from the perspective of the local inhabitants regarding sustainable environment and agriculture. The projects were measured within Middle East and North Africa Regions Program for Integrated Development (MENARID). The results explored that pit- seeding, rain-fed orchard, check dam, concreted-stony dam and gabion and dyke. The pit- seeding was found relatively successful practice, while almost almond plantlet in the rain-fed orchards was dried. The biological project did not precept by local responders and no any income for their. The responders confirm that they did not call for participating in practices process and thereby they not willing with these measures. Some necessary issues in related to watershed management were neglected including optimizing water utility, minimizing soil disturbance, improving tillage systems, proper management of agricultural inputs. There are necessary issues for combating and adapting climate change condition and overcome land degradation in the study area.
