The effort in common lands with regards to forestry, soil and water conservation has given high priority in its approach beside land and agriculture development. The objective of the programme is to arrest rainwater runoff and conserves it in situ where it falls. Water and soil conservation also leads to improved green cover in the project areas leading to improve productivity of land. Under this programme, wastelands are developed in an integrated manner based on village micro watershed plans. The plan is developed with the participation of local people in regard to their needs. JJK has gained a high degree of technical competence in constructing cost effective water harvesting structures and community mobilization.

JUTE CRAFT
With the support of "NABARD" Integrated Tribal Development Project in Bishnugarh Block of Hazaribagh District. The “Wadi” model of tribal development is holistic approach addressing production, processing and marketing of the produce and also other needs. The core of the programme is “Wadi” and other development interventions are built around “Wadi”. The “Wadi”' means a ‘Small Orchard' covering one or two acres. The Tribal Communities are dependent mainly on agriculture, forests and livestock for livelihood. But the dwindling forest resources accentuated by primitive agriculture practices like shifting cultivation, mono-cropping, etc. have jeopardized the agriculture and livestock productivity which has led to shrinking of water resources and reduced fuel and fodder supply. This has largely affected family income leading to rampant migration leaving their productive assets idle.
