Shakirov settlement is located in semi-desert zone. The main problem for inhabitants of the village is lack of water for irrigation. The sowing grounds round the village are degraded, the sown area doesn?t yield harvest because of its strong salinity. Besides, uncontrolled cattle grazing aggravates the situation. Due to mass unemployment of the population felling of the forest belts takes place.

Expected results are
-Increasing of forage productivity
-Improvement of pastures
-Decreasing land degradation processes
-Reduction of wind erosion
-Creation of forest shelter belts length and breadth of aryks (3000 saplings of poplar will be planted)
-Establishing of aryk system with extension of 500 meters to supply 10 hectares of pastures with water
-Local community are active participants of the project
