Synopsis (short abstract) WOCAT has developed a well-accepted framework for documentation, monitoring, evaluation and dissemination of SLM knowledge, covering all steps from data collection, to a database and to using the information for decision support. WOCAT tools provide a unique, widely accepted and standardised method of application. At the local level: Two comprehensive questionnaires on SLM Technologies and SLM Approaches for case study documentation have been developed and are constantly up-dated. The questionna ires on SLM technologies and SLM approaches provide the main pillar of the local/ study site documentation of WOCAT. The questionnaires have been continuously developed and improved over the last 15 years. The documented Technologies and Approaches are then entered into the WOCAT databases. FAO and WOCAT have a long standing collaboration which is also formalized in the WOCAT International framework agreement (MOU) signed in 2014.

    Rehabilitation of degraded land can be achieved through manured planting pits, in combination with contour stone lines. Planting pits are used to prevent water runoff and thereby increase infiltration and reduce erosion. This method is suitable on soil with low permeability, such as silt and clay, and applicable for semi-arid areas for annual and perennial crops (such as sorghum, maize, sweet potato, bananas, etc.). One main advantage is their simple implementation and maintenance.
