en80 | These practices at farm level have the following benefits:- Reduction of run-off and soil erosion; Conservation of soil moisture for plant; growth; improved crop and pasture yields; Increased ground water supplies; Reduced siltation and flooding | Zochitika izi pa munda zili ndi ubwino wotsatirawu: kuchepetsa kuthamanga kwa madzi komanso kukoloka kwa dothi; kusunga chinyezi ku mbeu; kuchulikitsa zokolola komanso zakudya za ziweto; kuwonjezera kupezeka kwa madzi pansi padothi; kuchepetsa kukwilirika ndi kusefukira kwa mitsinje | agriculture | agriculture document |
en81 | Biological conservation practices aim at maintaining good ground cover in order to protect the land from rain-drop impact and run-off, and build up soil organic matter for soil structure improvement. | Kuteteza zamoyo kumafuna kusamala zomera zophimba mthaka ndi cholinga chofuna kuteteza dothi ku mvula ndi madzi othamanga, komanso kuchulukitsa chonde mumthaka kuti dothi likahle labwino | agriculture | agriculture document |
en82 | Maintenance of good ground cover on gardens through recommended crop husbandry practices and preservation of grasses, trees and litter on uncultivated land, should be promoted | Kusunga zomera zophimba dothi mminda potsatira njira zovomerezeka za ulimi wa mbewu komanso kusunga udzu, mitengo ndi zinyalala mmalo omwe sanabzalidwe mbewu kulimbikitsidwe | agriculture | agriculture document |
en83 | Manure and crop residues should be used to improve soil fertility, structure and water holding capacity | Manyowa ndi zotsalira za mbewu zigwiritsidwe ntchito pochulukitsa chonde mdothi, kukonza dothi komanso kuthekera kosunga madzi | agriculture | agriculture document |
en84 | Integration of trees/shrubs with crops and or livestock enhances conservation of soil and water resources through root binding of soil particles, improved canopy and leaf biomass fall that increases soil organic matter | Kuphatikiza mitengo/mafutu ndi mbewu kapane ziweto kumathandiza kuteteza dothi ndi madzi kudzera mitsitsi kumanga dothi, kupeleka mthunzi komanso masamba amagwera pansi ndikuwonjezera chonde mdothi | agriculture | agriculture document |
en85 | The grass strips should be planted with suitable trees such as Gliricidia, fruit trees and crops such as bananas and pigeon peas that provide good ground cover and are beneficial to farmers | Mizere ya udzu ibzalidwe mmalo ndi mitengo yoyenera monga Gliricidia, mitengo yazipatso ndi mbewu monga nthochi ndi nandolo zomwe zimaphimba dothi komanso ndizopindulits akwa alimi | agriculture | agriculture document |
en86 | All land with a slope of 2% and above requires physical conservation measures. These should be properly constructed and regularly maintained | Malo onse otsetsereka ndi 2% kapena kuposa apa akusowa kuwateteza ndi njira zomwe sizamoyo. Adzikonzedwa ndi kusamalidwa pafupipafupi | agriculture | agriculture document |
en87 | Some of the recommended physical conservation practices are contour ridging, tied/ box ridging, gully reclamation, raised footpaths, field boundaries, stream-bank protection and contour vegetation strips | Zina mwa ndondomeko zovomerezeka zosamalira malo ndi kukonza akalodzera, mabokosi, kukwilira ngalande, kukonza njira zokwera, kuyika malire mminda, kuteteza mphepete mwa mitsinje kubzala zomera mu akalodzera | agriculture | agriculture document |
en88 | Contour ridging is the practice of making ridges and realigning them along areas of similar height(contour) in a field | Kukonza akalodzera ndi mchitidwe wolima mizere ndi kuyiwongolera kuti ikhale pamalo okwera mofanana mmunda | agriculture | agriculture document |
en89 | Contour ridging should be promoted in order to enhance water retention and contour marker ridges should be used in aligning planting ridges | Kukonza akalodzera kulimbikitsidwe ndi cholinga chofuna kuwonjezera kasungidwe kamadzi ndipo akalodzera agwiritsidwe ntchito powongolera mizere yoyika mbewu | agriculture | agriculture document |
en90 | Since few farmers cultivate on the contour, ridges tend to channel water out of the fields in an uncontrolled manner, which aggravates surface run-off and erosion | Pakuti alimi ochepa amalima ndi akalodzera, mizere imataya madzi kuchoka mminda mopanda zopinga, zimene zimawonjezera kuthamanga kwa madzi ndi kukoloka kwa dothi | agriculture | agriculture document |
en91 | Contour ridging is a simple practice to reduce such impacts. To do this, peg and construct contour marker ridges as guides to re-align planting ridges. Marker ridges are best made during the dry season (soon after harvest). | Kukonza akalodzera ndi mtchitidwe wosavuta wochepetsa mavutowa. Pofuna kuchita izi, konzani milambala kuti ikhale kalodzera woongolera mizere ya mbewu. Akalodzera amakonzeka bwino nthawi yadzuwa pambuyo pakukolola | agriculture | agriculture document |
en92 | Several instruments are used in marking contour lines. The low cost instruments are the A-Frame, line level and Phiri-Lino Frame | Zida zambiri zimagwiritsidwa ntchito pokonza akalodzera. Zida zotsika mtengo ndi monga A-frame, line level ndi Phiri-Lino frame | agriculture | agriculture document |
en93 | These instruments are simple to use and therefore should be promoted. Other instruments such as dumpy, quickset and Abney levels require advanced skills | Zida zimenezi ndizosavta kugwiritsa ntchito choncho zilimbikitsidwe. Zida zina monga dumpy, quickset ndi Abney levels zimafuna luso lapadera | agriculture | agriculture document |
en94 | The line level is a relatively cheap, quick and accurate tool in marking contour lines. It consists of a miniature spirit level that hangs from a taut string between two poles | Line level ndiyotsika mtengo, yachangu komanso yolondola popanga akalodzera. Ili ndi spirit level yaying'ono kwambiri yomwe imakolekedwa pa chingwe chokungika kwambiri pakati pa dondo ziwiri | agriculture | agriculture document |
en95 | Details of its materials, construction and use are as follows:- line level, 5m of string, 2 sturdy sticks, 1.6-2.0m long with flat ends, 1 knife, Pegs to mark contour lines | Tsatanetsatene wa zinthu zake, kapangidwe komanso kagwiritsidwe ntchito zili motere: line level, chingwe cha 5m, ndodo ziwiri zolimba zotalika 1.6-2.0m zokhala ndi kumapeto kosapendekeka, mpeni umodzi, zintchiri zoyikira zizindikiro za kalodzera | agriculture | agriculture document |
en96 | Trim the ends of the sticks to make them flat. Then place them upright on level ground, preferably the floor of a building | Dulani kumapeto kwa ndodo kuti kukhale kosapendekeka. Imitsani chatsonga pabwalo, makamaka pabwalo mnyumba | agriculture | agriculture document |
en97 | Cut a groove around each stick at exactly the same height (about1.2 to 1.6m or chest level to make reading easy) | Kumbani ngalande kuzungulira ndodo iliyonse pamtunda wofanana wa 1.2m mpaka 1.6m kapena pachifuwa kuti kuwerengera kusamavute | agriculture | agriculture document |
en98 | Hang the line level centrally on the string and tie a note on each end of the level to stop it from sliding | Kolekani line level pakatikati pachingwe ndipo mangani mfundo mbali zonse ziwiri za line level kuti isasunthe | agriculture | agriculture document |
en99 | Tie the string ends in the groove of each stick. Set the 2 sticks upright on a level surface (e.g., floor) with the string tight | Mangani mapeto a zingwe mkhosi mwa ndodo. Imitsani ndodo ziwirizo moloza mmwamba pamalo osapendeka ndipo chingwe chikungike | agriculture | agriculture document |
en100 | Mark their exact positions on the floor and read the line level then switch the positions of the sticks and read the level again | Ikani chizindikiro pansi pomwe pali ndodopo ndipo onani line level kenako sinthani poyika ndondo ndukuonanso line level | agriculture | agriculture document |
