Book excerpt: This book explores government intervention measures in soil and water conservation (SWC) in a dryland region around the town of Kassala, eastern Sudan. The interventions introduced from the early 1980s onwards were predominantly based on techniques of floodwater-harvesting. Generally, their achievements have remained below expectation. Indigenous SWC applied by settling nomadic Beja groups in the area since the 1950s was therefore considered as an alternative. Indigenous SWC is predominantly based on rainwater-harvesting. It was found that these techniques provide good opportunities to support the livelihoods of the Beja in the short term. However, in the long term subsistence means other than crop production based on indigenous SWC are also required to sustain their living. This is because the environmental conditions in eastern Sudan are insecure.

Book excerpt: Indigenous soil and water conservation practices are rarely acknowledged in the design of conventional development projects. Instead, the history of soil and water conservation in Africa has been one of imposing external solutions without regard for local practice. There is a remarkably diverse range of locally developed and adapted technologies for the conservation of water and soil, well suited to their particular site and socio-economic conditions. But such measures have been ignored, and sometimes even overturned, by external solutions. Sustaining the Soil documents farmers' practices, exploring the origins and adaptations carried out by farmers over generations, in response to changing circumstances. Through a comparative analysis of conservation measures - from the humid zones of West Africa to the arid lands of the Sudan, from rock terraces in Morocco to the grass strips of Swaziland - the book explores the various factors that influence adoption and adaptation; farmers' perceptions of conservation needs; and the institutional and policy settings most favorable to more effective land husbandry. For the first time on an Africa-wide scale, this book shows that indigenous techniques work, and are being used successfully to conserve and harvest soil and water. These insights combine to suggest new ways forward for governments and agencies attempting to support sustainable land management in Africa, involving a fusion of traditional and modern approaches, which makes the most of both the new and the old.
