marketed but many fisherman community were totally dependant on the catching of fish.
By the, passage of time, rivers were squeezed, due to present technology, fish productive areas has been
converted into cultivated lands by the construction of bunds around the rivers to save the human community assets. In this way not

Brief Note Of District Officer Forest, Rawalpindi.
INTRODUCTION:
Under the local government ordinance 2001 the office of District officer Forest came into the

Rawalpindi, Taxila, Murree, Kahuta, Kotli Sattian Gujar Khan and Kalar Syedan tehsils. Of
these Murree, Kotli Satian, Kalar Syedan and Kahuta falls in Pahar and Kahru Revenue Assessment Circle.
Upland parts of these tehsils falls in Pahar R.A.C are covered with natural pine forest with Chil, Kail and Fir
as main species. Where as Kahru R.A.C largely carry scrub species such as Kahoo, Phulai and Sanatha. In
other three tehsils natural vegetation is largely composed of scrub sp~cies and some associated species.
Some other tree species abundantly found in Rawalpindi District include Dharek, Eucalyptus, Shisham, Toot
etc. Among the planted species along farmlands, roads, streets, railway tracks and in public parks and
buildings, Eucalyptus (sufeda) is most prominent one.

PROBLEMS / BOTTLE NECKS
. District roads along with staff have yet not handed over to this office for management and control, while the
same has already taken its route in all the other districts of Punjab. The roadside planting has great
potential for development but no funds has been allocated in this regard so far. This aspect needs due
attention.
2. No funds have been allocated for the raising of forest nurseries since the creation of this office. Although
there is a huge demand of tree saplings by the government departments and farmers of the district.
3. One of the important duties of forestry sector of district government is to establish recreational parks and
amenity forests for general public. The objective could not be achieved due to the non-availability funds.
This aspect needs due attention.
4. Presently, the provincial forest department allows the cuttings of trees in private areas. As provincial
government lacks jurisdiction over these areas, therefore without proper verification felling permits are
issued which results in discriminate felling and diminishing of local flora.
5. Shortage of executive as well as ministerial staff The provincial government maybe requested to fulfill the
desired requirement.
ON GOING PROJECTS

BACK GROUND
It is unfortunate that in spite of full scale existing of the factors required for potential
production, Pakistan is lagging behind in the field of agricultural production to the extent that
it is incapable of meeting its own food and fiber requirements. The import of food items
worth millions of rupees has become its constant need. It is not impossible to overcome this
critical situation. There is great potential of not only increasing the agricultural production
both in the irrigated as well as rain fed areas but thousands of reclaimable/barren uncultivated acres can be
brought under cultivation also and utilized for crop production.
Our agriculture depends heavily on irrigation and 80% of the agricultural out put comes from
irrigated agriculture while remaining 20% conies from' rainfed areas. Our country is fading sever water
shortage for the last few years. Lack of water conservation practices, inadequate storage facilities and low
rainfall aggravated this situation.
In this context, the rainfed area in Rawalpindi District is worth special attention. The water resources in these
areas are required to be exploited and the rain water which not only gets lost but also proves to be a cause of
soil erosion in thousands of acres annually is ought to be saved substantially to be utilized for better crop
production. In addition there are hundreds of small and big streams through which a huge amount of water is
either constantly or seasonally flowing but a very little amount .of the same is being utilized for agricultural
production. The area under irrigation is very low. The requirement is, to develop facilities to bring more area
under irrigation for efficient utilization of available water resources.

MAJOR ACTIVITIES.
The major activities of On Fann Water Management are briefly given below:
1. Organization of Water Users Associations
The fanner are organized and registered as water user association under the water user association act 1981.
The water user associations are responsible to under take all the development works in the field by arranging
all skilled and unskilled labour and supervise the physical works. In National Programme these' Organizations
are also responsible for procurement of all sort of construction material for irrigation schemes. This ensures
participation of the farming community in the developmental works at all level.
2. IRRIGATION SCHEMES
In canal irrigated areas there exist well planned and sanctioned watercourses (open channels) under the
control of irrigation department but in barani areas there is no concept of community watercourses except
Small Dams command areas. Mostly Individual farmers develop their own source of irrigation for their
personal use or at maximum for relatives who share certain piece of land with them. The source of irrigation
could be tubewell, perennial streams? ponds, mini or small dams. If the tubewells ,are installed in relatively
leveled areas, the irrigation by gravity flow is possible. In this situation watercourses (open channel) are
designed and then lined with installation of water control structures. In case where source of irrigation is a
perennial river, or mini dam or pond existing below the actual piece of land to be irrigated, a problem
however remained there, that how the farmers can convey the water to their field those are higher than the
source of irrigation. OFWM solved this problem through lift irrigation schemes by laying underground' pipe
lines right from the water source to the fields where irrigation has to be done.
Irrigation schemes are the development through which multifarious steps are taken to provide the water to the
crops. These irrigation schemes includes:i)
Lifting of the irrigation water from the Smal1/Mini dams, Perennial streams and other low laying
water sources through PVC/G.I pipes by using centrifugal pumps.
ii)
connecting different fields having depression in between through PVC/RCC pipes.
iii)
supplying water to the field of lower or equal evaluation through open channels and
RCC pipes.
3. WATER STORAGE TANKS
In barani area drilling upto desired depth is quit expensive and some times impossible. In this situation
farmers normally dug wells at shallow depths o~ install turbines of small discharges for irrigation purpose.
The discharge is often less to irrigate fields. With a small delivery it takes hour to irrigate a piece of land
which is the wastage of energy and times as direct application of such low discharges results in higher
conveyance and application losses.
To overcome this difficulty the small delivery water is stored in a Water Storage Tank.
When the tank is full, the water is released to thel fields with the desired discharge. This intermittent
releases not only increase the efficiency, but also saves, time and energy. Through Water Storage
Tanks can not irrigate large area but it is quite suitable for! Small 'areas especially for vegetables and
orchards.
4. Land development and Land Leveling
Studies have indicated that a significant (20-25%) amount of water is lost during application at the firm due
to poor farm designing and uneven fields . It has been noted that Most 'of the fanners apply irrigation
i
water until the highest point in the field is covered, which leads to over irrigation. The ultimate effects of over
irrigation!' is wastage of water in burani. Areas where water is already scarce and precious thing. Over
irrigation and complex water supply to higher points is wastage of lot of water, On the; other hand uneven
fields in batahi: areas ate also on; the risk of erosion during heavy rains.
Keeping in view its advantages, the city District govt, Rawalpindi has given due importance to this activity
and managed to purchase new Tractors 'and' Laser equipment alongWith other implements despite its limited
resources. Precise Land Leveling (PLL) operations are now carried out through laser equioment, which helps
to achieve the required degree of precision at lesser cost and efforts. The water is uniformly distributed in the
Leveled fields leading to better germination of seeds. It reduces the loss of plant nutrients and leads to higher
crop yield. Impact studies on laser land leveling reveals that it:1. Reduses the application losses up to 25 %
2. Reduces labour requirement for irrigation up to 35 %
3. Increase crop yield up to 20 %
OFWM staff provide free technical services for surveying, planning , designing and leveling of their firms. In
addition tractors with laser equipment , scraper, front blade and mould boold plought are rented out to farmers
on subsidized rates i.e. Rs. 250/ hour.
Installation of Turbines/Tube Wells
On farm Water Management also deals with augmentation of underground water resources through dug wells
and tube-wells. Under this activity the turbines/tube wells are installed based on the ground water potential of
the area. This activity is focused where surface water is either not available or in-efficient to meet the crop
water requirement. Deep turbines and shallow tube-wells are planned on the basis of feasibility and
requirement of the areas.
Dug wells
Apart from stream flows, small pockets of fresh ground water are also available at certain locations in District
Rawalpindi. Where Dug wells prove to be potential source for irrigation water. If the water is lifted through a
pump installed at this place the water exhaust within a short interval of time because of the fact that water is
collected in such pockets/ aquifers through a very slow horizontal and vertical seepage phenomenon. The
water is, stored/collected in the pit at the lower part of the dug well overnight which is lifted in the day time
with diesel engine pump or electric motor for irrigation.
High efficiency irrigation technology (sprinkler/ Drip):
In rain fed areas, the water being scarce resource demands that it should be used most efficiently for the crop
production with out washing single drop of water. In the undulated lands, gravity irrigation is not possible. If
the soil is sandy it causes heavy loses due to seepage. Barani areas having rich soil could be converted into
highly productive by sprinkler and drip irrigation system and more area can be brought under irrigation with
less quality of water. Sprinkler irrigation is used for growing highly value crops such as orchards, vegetables.
These schemes may be installed at dug, wells, storage reservoirs, mini dams , streams and spring in the rain
fed areas.
Rain Water Harvesting/Conservation Technology
It may be a new term for fanners in Pakistan, but it is not new in developed countries like USA and
Australia where hundred and thousand areas of land have been brought under cultivation after
introduction of this technology. Although the total rain fall in Rawalpindi is enough for crop production
yet the pattern of rainfall is not conductive for better yield. The term rainwater harvesting refer to a set of
activities. It encourages the safe reception of rainfall is encouraged that farmers should not leave the land
follow particularly during heavy rains. In filtration is increased by proper dikes and leveling of fields and the
safe run of is done by construction of spill way structure while save disposal of all flowing water from the
fields to low laying ponds or rives is carried out by planned grass water ways.
In the absence of proper land leveling, deep till age and proper dikes, both water and fertile soils are washed
away every year. In order to make best use of rain water in rain fed areas water harvesting technology sites
can be developed where in rain water form catchments areas are directed towards cropped areas. In small rain
fall areas , micro catchments with in the field can be planned.
9. Farm Designing and Capacity Building
Existing topography of lands and farmers fields in barani areas are not according to the proper design with
respect to irrigation system and water supplies. It is duel to lack of awareness about irrigated agriculture.
Hence farms are designed to bring maximum area under irrigation to minimize the field application loses and
to incrase the water productivity by economizing the available water resources. Farmers are trained for
irrigation agriculture as well as for change of cropping pattern.

COST SHARING
Approach.
On Farm Water Management follows a bottom-up approach to practice efficient irrigated
agriculture through active involvement of the farming community. Farmers/water users are
initially informed about the objectives of OFWM Program and its expected outcome. Afterwards,
farmers are motivated through repeated follow-up visits to organize themselves into groups and are
registered as water users association (WUAs) under on farm water management and water user’s
association ordinance 1981. the WUAs undertake development works of all the OFWM activities
like irrigation schemes, construction of water storage tanks, drip/Sprinkler irrigation Schemes and
land leveling etc. All of OFWM program to create sense of ownership and possession amongst the
farming community.
In NPIW program this ratio is 80:20. Government provides 80% subsidy and farmers have to bear
20% of the total expenditures in the form of skilled and unskilled labor. Joint accounts are opened
in the bands where funds are transferred in three installments after the verifications of consultants.
Farmers committee finalizes the material rates for construction of schemes and all procurements
are carried out by the farmers.

Based on the achievements of 1st two years, Governmentrdof Punjab has enhanced the targest under NPIW to
130 Irrigation Scheme in District Rawalpindi , for the 3 year, i.e. 2006-07.
MONITORING ARRANGEMENTS
The success of any program is primarily on intensive monitoring of the program. It is important that
functionaries at that level must have clear vision about the program. The role of monitoring functionaries is to
facilitate, keep eye on the work, trouble shoot, avoid delays, ensure adherence to the standards and
specifications, avoid wastage of resources and deep the program on track so that it meets its objectives.
There is an elaborate arrangement for internal and external monitoring and evaluation of OFWM, works being
carried out under different programs. A brief description is given below:i)
Beneficiary Involvement (Cost sharing)
Water user associations (WUA) of farmers are organized at all schemes prior to their development. The
farmers assist OFWM technical staff in survey of command area of irrigation schemes and in the
finalization of its designs. Framers arrange the construction material at site and ensure its quantity/ quality
before making the payments to the suppliers. Farmers carry out execution of works their sites and they
ensure that the execution of civil works have been accomplished according to the standards and
specifications being the payment masters of all skilled and unskilled labor in addition to bearing the cost
of water source and land development. In this way, in execution of schemes, farmers share investment
cost of about 50% and they always try to get best possible quality of work of their sites.
ii)
Supervision by OFWM Staff
Water management officer/Supervisors however provide technical assistance for planning, designing, and
during construction of irrigation schemes and supervise all the execution work as per standards and
specifications. Moreover Assistant Agriculture Engineer, office of the District Officer, OFWM, carries
out inspection of the irrigation schemes from the initial stage of surveying till its final completion i.e.
design approval, spot checking and verification of completion, reports. District Officer, OFWM, at
District level also carries out field inspections to check the physical works in the field.
Besides, Executive District Officer, Agriculture also visit the offices of District Officer, OFWM, and
Deputy District Officers, OFWM, and field works in all thesils. So much so District Coordination Officer,
Rawalpindi himself inspects many sites of OFWM, in the field to check quality and impact of the
schemes.
iii)
Project Management Unit.
In national program for improvement of Watercourse in Pakistan (The Punjab Component), project
management unit has been established to supervise the office record as well as field works to ensure the
completion of this program as per standards and specification.
iv)
Supervisory Consultants
The supervisory consultant is recruited by the government to undertake supervision and monitoring for
third party validation. In National Program for Improvement of Watercourses, “Punjab Water
Management Consultants” has been assigned this job. The consultants are responsible to approve the
design of schemes; spot-checking for quality cont4rol of material and physical works at site and verify the
completion reports.
v)
Performance Evaluation/Impact Assessment
The activities carried out by OFWM, department Rawalpindi have changed the economic condition of the
farmers as they are getting more yields after the installation of irrigation schemes. It has changed the life
style and mind of the people and they are taking more interest in agriculture as ever before, they are
generating their income from the agriculture land and it ahs changed the trend of migration from rural to
urban areas. The employment opportunities have been generated in the rural sector which has supported
the government in providing employment to unemployed persons, because most of the members of the
family and of other families are engaged with this profession.
Agencies like WAPDA, Punjab Economic Research institute (PERI) and P&D had been doing impact
evaluation of different OFWM, activities in the past to determine their overall impact on crop, yield, area
and production etc. similar arrangement in future will also be made.
ORGANIZATION ARRANGEMENTS.

Average cost of irrigation scheme is 160,000/- which is less. In
irrigated area against an average unit cost of 0.7 million, the
schemes of 1.4 million have been completed and average is taken
at district level which comes within the limit of 0.7 million. The
same procedure as an average at district level may be adopted in
barani area as well.
Budget may be released as per assigned targets during early part
of the year so that execution of the field work may be smooth and
on time.
Out of total strength of 49 OFWM in Rawalpindi, 10 posts are
vacant at present. There is no additional staff provided in batani
area and programme is being executed with the regular staff only.
Deficiency of staff may hamper the progress and cause difficulty
in achieving the target on time.
New computers motorcycles and level sets have been provided in
irrigated area. Accordingly the same may be provided in burani
area also.
One field engineer consultant be deputed in each case District .
The irrigation schemes with higher most may be covered under
DERA programme. The funds of DERA programme may also be
allocated to on farm water management, Rawalpindi .
DO SOIL CONSERVATION RAWALPINDI.
BRIEF NOTE ON SOIL CONSERVATION IN DISTRICT RAWALPINDI
HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT.
A Soil Conservation Pilot Project was ~established in 1953 with the help of lCA of U.S.A and a
Directorate of Soil Conservation and Erosion Control was created in Punjab in 1954 within the Forest
Department with "Ws headquarter at Rawalpindi. The Soil Conservation Directorate was taken away from the
Forest Department in 1960 and made a wing of the Agriculture Department. Thus the activities of the Soil
Conservation Directorate continued in the four Provinces on West Pakistan basis till the disintegration of one
unit.
After dissolution of one unit in 1970 the Directorate of Soil Conservation Punjab, which now forms a
Wing of the Agriculture Department, Punjab is functioning largely over the potohar tract, salt range and the
foothills of Dera Ghazi Khan District. The Directorate acts both as an extension service for providing the
advice to the farmers about soil and Water Conservation as well as an operational agency for assisting them in
the Soil Conservation works and practices.
After the implementation of Devolution Programme in 2001 in Punjab, the post of District Officer,
Soil Conservation in Rawalpindi District has been created with Deputy District Officer, Soil Conservation in
Kahuta and Gujar Khan Tehsil carrying out the same functions.
TOPOGRAPHY.
Rawalpindi District comprises Seven Tehsils (Rawalpindi, Jaxila, Murree, G!ljar Khan, Kotli Sattian,
Kallar Saydian and Ka1}.uta) with total area 12,90,013 acres with cultivated area 6,65,560 acres and
uncultivated area 6,24,453 acres.
Rawalpindi District constitutes the e~stern' half of ;the Potohar uplands qnd lies between latitudes 32°
30' and 34° 30' N, and longitudes 72° 30' and 73° 30' E. In the North's and East the area is bounded by the
Himalayan foothills, in the South by the Salt range and in the West by Attock District and the Gandgarh
range.
The High Potwar Plateau represents a synclinal trough between the salt range and the Rawalpindi
foothills, filled with Tertiary and quaternary deposits. The District has a complex geological history of
mountain building, alluvial and loessic depositions and erosional cycles. Interbedded conglomerates,
sandstones, shale' s and siltstones mainly underlie the area of whole district. The Haro and Soan Rivers
comprise the main drainage of the potwar uplands unlike the rivers of the Punjab Plain's; the Potwar Uplands
Rivers are eroding material, not depositing it. The riverbeds lie far below the general level of the land
consequently erosion has been very active in the plains and has resulted in a network of deep gullies.
CLIMATE
The average rainfall in the district varies from about 45 inches in the North's to less than 20 inches in
the South east. The climate of the area is characterized by rainfall from both monsoon and Western
disturbances giving a twin peak type distribution with the maximum precipitation occurring in July to
September. The summers are pleasantly cool (90-100 fO) while winters are severe with considerable frost
and snow in month of January.
OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the Soil Conservation Department are as under:
i)
To contain soil erosion process in the cultivable areas and the adjoining uncultivated lands and to
save these areas from further degradation through adoption of sustainable soil conservation
program on' catchments/ sub catchments basis.
ii)
To make maximum use of run off by conserving it into the field by various moisture conservation
measures.
iii)
To bring more area under cultivation through reclamation and gully control techniques.
iv)
Exploitation of water resources through various means of providing assured water supply for
irrigation purposes. (Mini Dams, Ponds and Dug wells).
ACTIVITIES:
To achieve the objectives, the following Soil and Water Conservation activities are carried out:
.
i)
TREATMENT OF CULTIVATED LAND:
The cultivated arable land is the most valuable assest in the catchment areas. These lands are situated at
the foot of the hills and are largely sloping. They however have been damaged very severely by sheet and
gully erosion. Their treatment consists in the construction of new terraces, improvement of the existing
terraces strengthening of embankment, construction of water disposal outlets, chiseling and deep ploughing,
introduction of cover' crops, contour ploughing, conservation oriented tillage and practices and introduction of
high yielding varieties of crops. Detailed designs are prepared after studying the condition of each individual
field in each catchment. These operations are supplied by the Govt. to the farmers at subsidized rates at
District level.
ii) Treatment Of Eroded Gullied Land.
The gullies are situated at the lower end of watershed and they conduct the bulk of the rainwater coming
from above. This is a continuous process and keeps the gullies eating back into the arable lands. The eating
back process is so fast that some of the lands which were shown as cultivated fields during the settlement of
1905 did not exist at all during the settlement carried out in 1955. It is, therefore, imperative that the growth
of gullies should be arrested as soon as possible. This is done by diverting the water from the watersheds and
plugging the gullies. The gully plugging serves another may useful purpose of reclaiming valuable
agricultural lands in the beds of gullies. These operations being expensive are carried out after detailed
survey. Proper designs are prepared for the construction of check dams and spillways etc. The technical
advice where required is being\ extended at District level by the experts in line.
iii)Range Improvement Afforestation And Check Damming
The lands situated at higher elevations, in the hills and mountains and those having shallow soil or having
badly cut up topography are suitable only for raising trees, shrubs find grasses for vegetation. Such lands are
generally the communal lands, are overgrazed and denuded. These lands in fact are the source of excessive
run off eroding lands, causing gullies, washing away embankments and structures and silting up water works
finally resulting lip serious soil destruction. To avert this catastrophe, such lands are planted with trees,
grasses bushes etc and check dams are also provided to retard the run off and arrest the sediment load
depending upon t;4e nature of soil. The economical results from such lands accrue after long periods and the
work being of protective nature. These areas after necessary treatment are protected and used for grazing.
iv)Development Of Mini Dams/Ponds
The collection of water into Mint Dams/Ponds is also an improvement measure in reducing run off intensity.
The farmers are encouraged to set up small storages for the dual purpose of drinking water for livestock and
local irrigation. The Ponds and storage tanks are designed after proper survey and investigation.
v)Stream Bank/Kas Traininf!
The hill torrents cause considerable damage through steam bank erosion particularly wren they enter the
arable lands or the plains. Apart from eroding the valuable agricultural lands, they also spread large tman6ties
of sterile sand and debris on the adjoining agricultural fields. The' stream bank erosion is controlled through
the construction of water diversion spurs/walls and planting trees grasses along the bank wherever necessary.
All these activities/interventions are executed with full participation and involvement of farmers/farming
community on 50:50 and 20:80 cost sharing basis. All the expenditure on these activities is incurred by, the
farmer himself under the technical supervision of field staff and after completion 50% or 80% share of the
farmer is reimbursed to him in the form of Bank DraftiRTR/Cheque/Pay Order etc.
