| Abstract
|
Healthy and productive soils form the basis for a productive agricultural system and are thus important for ensuring food security for an increasing population.
Scaling up and sustaining the positive impacts of effective sustainable land management (SLM) practices, particularly such measures used for the purpose of soil and water conservation (SWC), remains an important objective in order to ensure that the nutritional needs of a growing population, especially in regions affected by climate change, can be met. This study aims to identify and analyze in particular the long term impacts of SLM interventions because a thorough understanding of these could be an important tool to better guide future interventions. Four
individual country cases from Niger, India, Burkina Faso and Ethiopia were used to trace such long term impacts and to collect important lessons learned with regard to success factors and challenges of said interventions.
