英文摘要	Contour vegetative barriers (CVB) of locally adapted, drought resistant plant species were evaluated for their effectiveness in reducing runoff and soil loss in the farmers’ fields. Perennial grasses of desert tract performed the best and formed effective barriers against soil erosion from second year onwards. The runoff was reduced by 28 to 97% with negligible soil loss. The resultant overall 2.5 times increase in soil moisture storage increased yield of clusterbean crop by 37 to 51%. These barriers are inexpensive and acceptable to the farmers in the Indian arid zone.
