Enriching community pastures - Villagers of Gudha Gokulpura in Bundi, Rajasthan take the lead

This Good Practice note, based on the experiences of the BAIF Development Research Foundation (BAIF) in Gudha Gokulpura village, Bundi district, Rajasthan, documents the regeneration of common property resources through community involvement and management.

The note shows how community protection and management of the commons has led both to increasing the output of grasses and thereby promoting livestock development, and has also contributed to improving the water table with a resultant increase in the area under cultivation and improved crop productivity.
