Literature Review
UNIVERSITY OF ZIMBABWE Impact and sustainability of drip irrigation kits, in the semi-arid Lower Mzingwane Catchment, Limpopo Basin, Zimbabwe By Richard Moyo A thesis submitted to the University of Zimbabwe (Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering) in partial fulfilment of requirements of Master of Science in Water Resources Engineering and Management ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in the Mzingwane Catchment are confronted with low food productivity due to erratic rainfall and limitations to appropriate technologies. Several drip kit distribution programs were carried out in Zimbabwe as part of a global initiative aimed at 2 million poor households a year to take major step on the path out of poverty. Stakeholders have raised concerns of limitations to conditions necessary for sustainable usage of drip kits, such as continuing availability of minimum water requirement. Accordingly, a study was carried out to assess the impacts and sustainability of the drip kit program in relation to water availability, access to water and the targeting of beneficiaries. Representatives of the NGOs, local government, traditional leadership and agricultural extension officers were interviewed. Drip kit beneficiaries took part in focus group discussions that were organised on a village basis. A survey was then undertaken over 114 households in two districts, using a questionnaire developed from output of the participatory work. Data were analysed using SPSS. The results from the study show us that not only poor members of the community (defined for the purpose of the study as those not owning cattle), accounting for 54 % of the beneficiaries. This could have been a result of the condition set by some implementing NGOs that beneficiaries must have an assured water source - which is less common for poorer households. -
Evolution of Social Science Research at ICRISAT, and a Case Study in Zimbabwe
An Open Access Journal published by ICRISAT ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Evolution of Social Science Research at ICRISAT, and a Case Study in Zimbabwe Jane D Alumira, Ma Cynthia S Bantilan and Tinah Sihoma-Moyo SAT eJournal | ejournal.icrisat.org December 2007 | Volume 3 | Issue 1 An Open Access Journal published by ICRISAT ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Evolution of Social Science Research at ICRISAT Background Social science research (SSR) at ICRISAT evolved in the context of its socio-economics program, covering agricultural economics, science and technology policy, rural sociology, and anthropology (Byerlee 2001). These disciplines play complementary roles in obtaining a basic understanding of the rural economy in the semi-arid tropics (SAT), identifying priorities for research, informing policy, monitoring research impacts and helping to direct investments by ICRISAT’s partners. The first part of this paper analyzes the evolution of SSR in ICRISAT. The second part is a recent case study on livelihood diversification behavior among smallholder farm communities in Zimbabwe. It illustrates how SSR contributes to livelihood analysis, targeting of research and development, and informing policy. The structure and content of SSR at ICRISAT has been shaped by the Institute’s overall research strategies over time. Before 1996, ICRISAT’s major emphasis was on increasing production and food security through new technologies and new uses for our mandate crops. The strategy focused on more efficient use of small quantities of inputs and their timely application to enrich nutrient-poor soils. In the latter half of the 1990s, there was renewed effort on problem-based, impact-driven science and delivery of outputs. By 1997, the Institute’s strategy aimed to identify alternative uses of the natural resource base that could help reduce poverty, promote food security, and prevent environmental degradation. -

Evaluation of the Effects of Different Water Demand Scenarios on Downstream Water Availability: the Case of Thuli River Basin

There is intensive use of blue water in the upper catchment more than its lower reaches. The paper presents the evaluation of the effects of upstream water demand scenarios on downstream users in the river basin. A model was applied as a tool to simulate the effects. The impacts of different water demand scenarios on downstream water availability were evaluated. The water demand scenarios used were based on government recommendations and future plans on water resources development, drought risk mitigation, implementation of environmental water requirement and implementing inter basin transfer (IBT) to Bulawayo, the second largest city in Zimbabwe. The study showed that implementing IBT will increase water shortages for downstream users while enforcement of environmental water requirements, implementation of government plans on water resources development in the catchment and drought risk reduction; decreases water shortages for downstream users. It is therefore clear that while the IBT is an important development for Bulawayo, the river basin management of the Thuli river basin requires a holistic approach. -

ROBINS Department of Anthropology and Sociology, University of the Western Cape ... Mrs M, 43, said she was arrested at her home ... She said the CIO was looking for her brother, and had arrested every member of her family, including four sisters and another brother, a number of her brother's employees, her niece, and two friends — eighteen people in all. She said all of them were taken to Stops Camp ... "At Stops the CIO took me into an empty room. The place was terrible. The floor was covered with water and blood. The CIO man said, 'Where is your brother?' I said, i don't know.' Then they tortured me. They made me sit down on the floor. My hands were handcuffed behind my back, my legs manacled in front. They took a post office bag, a canvas post office bag, filled with water, and dunked my head into it. Then they pulled the string tight around my neck, so tight that when you sit up, the water doesn't drop out. Not one drop of water leaked out. They then started choking me with their hands, their thumbs, their fingers.
