Major Impacts
Sector Impact
61 - 77 of 77
381 - Discourage burning of grasslands or marginal vegetation that holds soil
382 - Practice contour cropping/terracing
383 - Encourage rehabilitation of bare land and areas subject to soil erosion.
384 - Utilize site capture crops to quickly revegetate bare slopes
385 - Utilize cover crops to hold soil
386 - Utilize barrier crops to trap and prevent sediments from eroding
387 - Plant stabilizing trees on vulnerable slopes to control landslides
388 - Utilize Nitrogen fixing crops
408 - clean wells immediately after major rains
409 - raise the walls of wells so that rain events do not bring debris into them directly
457 - White wash (paint) the tanks for sunlight reflection to keep water cool
458 - Build underground tanks that are not exposed to the sun
459 - Plant ivy and other vines around and on tanks to keep water cold
460 - Place tanks under shelters
461 - Ferro cement tanks best resist high temperatures
462 - Avoid poly tanks that may melt and become deformed in high temps
463 - Avoid fiberglass tanks that may experience inner lining peeling, and dust may have health implications
