Dynamics of Terrace Adoption, Propagation, Benefits & Challenges among Dryland Agro-Pastoralist Communities of West Pokot

Abstract: Conventional approach of establishing soil conservation strategies in degraded drylands has had negligible success. This has been contributed by many constraints, including; lagging of farmers in technology adoption, inadequate resources, and lack of motivation. Thus, a study was conducted among three agro-pastoral community farmer groups in Korellach Parak, Kapkitony, and Kaporowo villages domiciled in Chepareria ward, West Pokot, Kenya, to assess contributory factors and consequences of adopting terracing as… Show more

“…The surrounding hills and ridges collect large amounts of surface run-off that descends at high speeds contributing to extreme soil erosions (Mutio et al, 2021). The area experiences a temperature range between 10 • C and 30 • C and receives an average of 600 mm of annual precipitation (Nyberg et al, 2015).…”
