The Supply-Side Story of Zero Tillage Service Provision in the Eastern Gangetic Plains: Perspectives from Machinery Owners
A vibrant fee-for-hire service provision economy is required in the Eastern Gangetic Plains (EGP) to ensure that resource-poor smallholder farmers can access and benefit from agri-mechanisation. While the literature on sustainable agri-mechanisation (with an emphasis on Conservation Agriculture-based Sustainable Intensification) has focused on the potential impact on farmer livelihoods, there has been a significant gap in understanding the supply…
From Plot to People’: A Photovoice Exploration of South Asian Farmer Livelihood Diversification Strategies When Extra Time and Money are Found Through Zero Tillage Adoption
Impact evaluations are dominated by the application of development economics to assess the direct impacts of change at the plot level, while studies that focus on the impact of such plot-level changes on livelihoods remain rare. This raises questions about the ‘so-what’ of the adoption of labour and money-saving practices such as Zero Tillage to the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. Piloting a qualitative photovoice methodology with 25 South As…
What agricultural transition means for women in male-headed households in South Asia: An in-depth exploration of intrahousehold evaluation processes
Women's participation in agriculture is increasing in the Eastern Gangetic Plains due to various external drivers, but they continue to play a limited role in agricultural decision-making. Yet there is limited understanding of the perspectives of spouses in male-headed households post-technology adoption. To understand post-technology adoption experiences of spouses, we conducted qualitative and semi-structured individual interviews with househol…
Farm mechanisation in Nepal's Terai Region: Policy context, drivers and options
Nepal Terai has historically had higher rates of mechanisation compared to the rest of the country and has the potential to expand and intensify its constrained agricultural productivity through agricultural mechanisation for smallholder farmers. This review provides a timely reflection on the pathways in which mechanisation has occurred in India and Bangladesh to inform the development of future mechanisation pathways and policies for Nepal Tera…
Putting power and politics central in Nepal’s water governance
Whose river is it? An assessment of livelihood and cultural water flow requirements for the Karnali basin
Sharma, A., E. Karki, N. Eriyagama, G. Shrestha, M. Jeuland, and L. Bharati. 2020. Whose river is it? An assessment of livelihood and cultural water flow requirements for the Karnali basin. Ecology and Society 25(3):22. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-11763-250322
Spatial politics and local alliances shaping Nepal hydropower
The politics of river basin planning and state transformation processes in Nepal
Reframing women’s empowerment in water security programmes in Western Nepal
Water security has become the new buzzword for water and development programmes in the rural South. The concept has potential to focus policymakers and practitioners on the inequalities and injustices that lie behind lack of access to affordable, safe, and clean water. The concept of women’s empowerment also provides an opportunity to do this. However, the vast majority of water security interventions using the term are apolitically and technical…
