Rural Appraisal

Water problems include problems that are not easily obtained, especially during conditions or dry seasons. Indeed water is a vital requirement for human, plant and animal life. Water for human needs is used for drinking, cooking, washing and bathing water. Areas with relatively flat topography, water is relatively easy to obtain from well water sources and rivers that flow relatively not deep, so to obtain water sources is relatively easy. In the service area with flat topography and slightly hilly, so farmers to obtain water in agricultural activities and for daily needs, water is obtained from rivers and dug wells, springs and deep wells (ground water). When it rains, water sources are easily obtained from abundant river water and from dug wells that have sufficient water level. The problem of water needs for rural communities who live in hilly and mountainous areas is the need for appropriate technology Hydram Pumps which are relatively inexpensive and affordable by the community because they have the power of hydropower, are energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Community service activities, using the survey method of installation activities and field observations, Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), which involves the community. This activity is carried out through: counseling, training and demonstrations. The results and benefits obtained by the application of appropriate technology, with the potential for hydram pumps come from water power sources that have speed, potential energy and kinetic energy that gives water hammer to the inlet pipe and compressed tube, so that it causes a great pressure to lift water to a higher place.   Keywords: Hydram Pump, Hydro Power, Environment Friendly, Springs, Water hammer.   ABSTRAK Masalah air termasuk masalah yang tidak mudah diperoleh terutama pada saat kondisi musim kemarau. Sejatinya air merupakan kebutuhan vital bagi kehidupan manusia, tumbuhan dan hewan. Air untuk kebutuhan manusia digunakan untuk komsumsi air minum, masak, mencuci dan mandi. Daerah dengan topografi relatif datar, air relatif mudah diperoleh dari sumber air sumur dan sungai-sungai yang mengalir yang relatif tidak dalam, sehingga untuk memperoleh sumber air relatif mudah. Pada areal pengabdian dengan kondisi topografi datar dan sedikit berbukit-bukit, sehingga petani untuk memperoleh air dalam aktifitas pertanian dan untuk kebutuhan hidup, air diperoleh dari sungai dan sumur galian, mata air dan sumur dalam (air tanah). Saat hujan, sumber air mudah diperoleh dari air sungai yang melimpah dan dari sumur galian yang memiliki tinggi air yang cukup. Permasalahan kebutuhan air bagi masyarakat desa yang tinggal di daerah berbukit dan bergunung adalah membutuhkan teknologi tepat guna Pompa Hydram yang relatif murah dan terjangkau oleh masyarakat karena memiliki daya penggerak tenaga air (Hydro Power), hemat energi dan ramah lingkungan. Kegiatan pengabdian, mengggunakan metode survei kegiatan aktifitas pemasangan dan pengamatan lapangan, Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) yaitu melibatkan masyarakat. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan melalui: penyuluhan, pelatihan, dan demonstrasi. Manfaat yang diperoleh bahwa dengan penerapan teknologi tepat guna, dengan potensi pompa hydram berasal dari sumber tenaga air yang memiliki kecepatan, energi potensial dan energi kinetik yang memberi hantaman air (water hammer) pada pipa pemasukan dan tabung kompressi, sehingga menimbulkan tekanan yang besar untuk mengangkat air ketempat yang lebih tinggi.   Kata kunci: Pompa Hydram, Hydro Power, Ramah Lingkungan, Mata air, Water hammer

Access to safe water is stated within human rights as essential for life, as water can be a source of severe enteric infections threatening human health, in particular children from Developing Countries. Along with reference methods, need is pressing for alternative methods to flank reference ones to improve water safety on-site monitoring and in the absence of scientific facilities or even electricity supply. The Micro Biological Survey (MBS) method has already been successfully applied to water safety assessment in Developing Countries. A total of 18 water samples were collected from different sources (rivers, dug wells, tap water) within the Rukwa Region, Tanzania, and underwent analysis for Total Coliforms following the MBS method. Globally, rivers showed more frequently contamination, followed by dug wells, tap water and tanks. Results demonstrate the need for continuous monitoring of water sources, even in difficult frameworks lacking electric supply, to help improve control over water quality, possibly using alternative methods to simplify existing protocols.

The study was conducted to evaluate the impact of aquafarming on rural communities particularly on the fishermen in terms of socio-economic condition in some selected area of Muktagacha upazila in Mymensingh district of Bangladesh. For collection of data through participatory rural appraisal (PRA) tools with a well-structured questionnaire from July to December, 2017 a total of sixty fishermen were selected randomly. Twelve livelihood aspects of fishers were selected and Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient (r) was used to evaluate the changes of socio-economic status. The findings of the study revealed that through aquaculture majority of the respondents about 58.3% moderately changed their livelihood status, while 31.7% reached higher level and only 10% of the respondents were under lower level. Out of twelve selected livelihood aspects seven were positively correlated but four of them had no relationship with their changing livelihood pattern through aquafarming. The survey identified that fishermen faced various problems such as social, economic and technical. Mostly lack of capital, illiteracy on fish farming, unawareness on health, vulnerability and few institutional supports were the main constraints in their upliftment. The findings of the research revealed that aquafarming resolutely contributing for the development of socio-economic condition of fishers in the explored area and recommended that GOs, NOGs and stakeholders should take more steps for sustainable development.

South Africa has hundreds of thousands of hectares of heavily populated and badly degraded landscapes. Past attempts at land management have been either through avoidance or the top-down imposition of “betterment” schemes. Participatory methods offer a new opportunity for communities living within these catchments to share their knowledge and to become involved in planning and implementing the management process. This paper discusses the use of Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) in a catchment rehabilitation programme in rural KwaZulu/Natal, the lessons learnt and the prospects for wider application.
