Response needs-Badakhshan
Agriculture: due to high elevation the province mostly cultivate single crop. Major crop is wheat but replaced by maize at
higher altitude. Almost 80% of the area is rainfed. Eastern districts of the province has some irrigated land, while in the EastNorth, rainfed area is more under cultivation. In these districts agriculture activities can be planned in order to increase the
productivity;
1.
Crop selection: At higher altitude, wheat productivity declines, while maize productivity increases or remain the same.
Farmers should be encouraged to cultivate more maize
2.
High yielding varieties of Maize should be disseminated for better production and adaptation.
3.
Wheat improved seed is lacking in the area… need interventions
4.
Use of fertilizer is bear minimum.. Can be supported
5.
Crop diversification: It is very important to diversify the crops to focus more on horticulture and vegetable. Most of the
fruits and vegetable come from neighboring provinces. A number of fruits plants can be introduced both for irrigated
as well as rainfed.
6.
Afforestation is one of the major potential activity.
7.
Support in irrigation channels can help increase productivity.
Livestock
Livestock rearing is the major livelihood of the areas. It increases with increase in elevation and at some stage it replace the
agriculture activities. The livestock sector has great potential for possible interventions like:
1.
Livestock shelter
2.
Livestock management
3.
Breed improvement
4.
Medical facilities
5.
Fodder plants introduction
6.
Control grazing programme
7.
Poultry development-home-based
Other programmes
Relief Activities
1. The rate of food insecurity and vulnerability is very high in certain districts due to limited livelihoods, harsh
weather and poor communication. Households in such districts will need targeted food assistance. Others
will need food for work, which will enable them to develop livelihood sources and increase their income.
2. Support in education
3. Health, sanitation and nutrition
4. Potable water
