Description
Summary:The Tinalah sub-watershed has been degraded as a result of community activities that do not adhere to conservation principles. The goal of this research was to identify the different types of soil and water conservation techniques used by the community in the Tinalah sub-watershed, as well as to design soil and water conservation activities for watershed conservation in the Tinalah sub-watershed, Kulon Progo. Data was gathered through interviews and observation. The SWOT model was used to analyze the data. According to the findings, the majority of soil and water conservation techniques used on upstream land were mechanical, with nearly 66.66% being mechanical and 33.33% being a combination of vegetative and mechanical. In the middle watershed area, nearly one hundred percent is a combination of mechanical and vegetative, whereas the majority in the downstream area is mechanical (75%). According to the SWOT analysis, the activities in the context of implementing the conservation technique are as follows: a. providing assistance to members of farmer groups so that they can support agricultural activities carried out, b. holding regular meetings between members of farmer groups to maintain a sense of cooperation, and c. developing a plan for soil and water conservation activities to protect the Tinalah sub-watershed ecosystem.
