Our crops\u2019 fields are now protected through stone bunds that we have put in place,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>In her remarks, Village headperson Ganeti commended the programme which has constructed a stone bund in Mwananyani mountain protecting the area of about 250 hectors. She has since asked people to take ownership of the programme as it is very crucial.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe stone bund covers a larger area of which protect crops from run-off water from the mountain. I am happy with this programme and it\u2019s my plea to all of us to take ownership of this which has a positive impact,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Acting Land Resource Conservation Officer for the district, Aaron M\u2019mwala said about 18968 households are benefiting from the programme which so far has conserved 16 catchments including the hills and mountains. And also saw community woodlots established.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the pilot phase we sow and planted trees in many places of which many have grown now, we have some villages which have established their woodlots. As a council we are happy with the impacts of the programme,\u201d he said. The programme is funded by the social protection multi-donor trust fund including the World Bank.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
