Inside: ENGLISH VERSION 2 We are very proud that almost all TIST members are following the TIST Values and living by the contract that they signed. Many TIST members have continued to adhere to the Green Gas House contract which allow them to sustainably thin their trees and do harvesting of 5% of their trees when they are 10 years and older. The purpose of having regular thinning is to achieve maximum growth and value of the trees that are left standing. The cuttings also provide firewood, poles, building materials, and other benefits directly to the TIST participant. That is the reason that we have the policy of creating a sustainable forest by only harvesting a maximum of 5% of the trees per year after the trees are 10 years old. When an occasional TIST member decides to clear cut their grove, they harm all the rest of the TIST members in their Small Group, in their Cluster and in all of Kenya.The actions of very few people can cause big problems for everyone. We expect other small group members and members of the Cluster to pay attention and make sure that no one cuts trees before they are supposed to. 

The LC is going to work with some of the participants who made a mistake and cut the trees to work out a proper plan for those people to reinvest some of their profits into the TIST Program so they are able to help other farmers rather than hurt them. When we signed the GhG Agreement, we committed to maintain the trees we plant for TIST to let them grow for 30 years before harvest. This is one reason it’s so important to think carefully about what kinds of trees we want to grow on our farms. Thinning and pruning can help keep trees healthy and provide useful products while the trees grow. The purpose of thinning and pruning trees is to improve individual tree health, as well as overall forest health.This is done by protecting the “best” trees in the forest and thinning the others. For many species like grevillea, eucalyptus and cypress, the trees to thin around are the largest trees, each with a single, straight stem. Trees may have different needs for space depending on species, site, planting style (woodlot, incorporated into crop fields, or windbreak), and climate, but some general principles apply. To grow strong, healthy trees, a spacing of two meters or more is recommended. This spacing works for many TIST trees (i.e. grevillea and cypress), but remember some trees require more space like mango and macadamia. Giving trees Thinning your trees for successful growth avoid clear-cutting. proper spacing helps them get enough water and nutrients to grow to their full potential. Closer spacing is acceptable when trees are young.As the trees begin to mature, some trees will be larger and more robust than their neighbors.These are the trees that should be kept. In determining which trees should be removed, look at the best trees and determine if they are appropriately spaced. If they are not, you should remove some nearby trees. When making thinning choices, remember that growth rate varies greatly by species. If a mango tree is growing near lots of eucalyptus, the mango may be far smaller and slower growing than the fast-growing eucalyptus, but it certainly should not be cut simply because it is smaller! A mango tree is of great importance due to its usefulness in producing fruit for food and sale. Best Practices while Thinning 

• Allow crop trees to grow to maturity. 

• Thin to proper stocking (number of trees per acre). In TIST, we can select up to 5% of our trees, after 10 years, thinning by selecting as they grow, and providing income.

 • Remove dying, diseased, decaying, and poor quality trees. 

• Protect trees from logging damage. 

• Use low-impact logging methods. 

• Promote tree species diversity. 

• Monitor your forest for insect and disease outbreaks.

 • Cooperate with government agencies in controlling forest insect and disease outbreaks.

 • Prevent wild fire. DO NOT do this Clear cutting DO THIS Single tree selection ENGLISH VERSION 3 a) What is the best way to arrange people during a small group meeting? A small circle is the best. Don’t have a table because it creates barriers between people. Don’t have a chair and a large seat for the most important person. In TIST, we all sit the same way. We either all sit on the ground, or we all sit on chairs. b) What do you do if more than twelve people want to join your group? If there are more than twelve people interested in joining your group it is best to form a new group. The group can split in two, or three or four members of the original group form the core of the new group. This is better than one member trying to start a group alone. Remember to start using rotating leadership straight away. c) What techniques can you use if the group energy is low? Split up the group into pairs and get each pair to talk about the task. Dramas also help. Sometimes stopping and each person saying something good that their group is doing can also motivate people again.Also remember to keep the meeting from becoming too long. By having a co-leader who is keeping time, you can focus the group’s energy to making sure the work gets done in the agreed upon time period. Meeting Schedule. To manage time well, a Small Group should have a well

-organized meeting schedule. This is important because it will help you keep focus on your agenda and the most important activities. It is also important because in TIST, we commit to work together for the long-term to grow and maintain our trees for the carbon market. We need to know our fellow Small Group members well, since each person’s actions impact our whole group and all of TIST. It is important, too, for your Small Group to have regular meetings, preferably once a week or once in two weeks.This will give all members in your group an opportunity to strengthen your group and share and learn new ideas. During your meeting, it is necessary to focus on important issues. Many TIST Small Groups have found the process below as a best practice for successful meetings: Step I. Greetings and introductions for any new members (5 – 15 minutes): Make sure everyone feels welcomed. Make it brief but let each person introduce him or herself. Step II. Opening prayer (2 minutes): A short word of prayer can help the group unite. Step III. Songs (5 minutes): hese could be songs written by your group, or songs that encourage people such as religious songs. Step IV. Agreement on task and time (5 minutes): The leader explains what will be done in the meeting and the group members agree to do the task.The time spent on each task or discussion should be agreed so that the co-leader can help keep the meeting on time. Step V. Group work on tasks (1 hour): Ideally, 

tasks should have been discussed at the end of the last meeting. Tasks might include sharing what each person has done to help TIST activities, sharing best practices, training on some subject of interest, and any other important issue that will help your Small Group to prosper. Step VI. Kujengana (5 minutes): Each group member makes one positive, specific statement to that week’s leader about his or her observable leadership of the meeting. In addition, anyone may identify a gift seen in the leader. Step VII. Closing prayer (2 minutes): Small Group Techniques: Group interaction. ENGLISH VERSION 4 A fter the harvest, do not burn the crop residues. Instead, leave them on the ground. The more residues left on the ground the better because they enrich the soil, making it more fertile. A layer of crop residue around the bottom of trees and seedlings will help increase the amount of moisture in the soil which prevents trees from getting too dry. Remember that crop remainders can also be used for compost manure. - Try to stop animals from grazing on the area. If they graze there will be less crop remainders left covering the ground. - Conservation farming holes have to be dug before the rains come. It is therefore vital to start digging them early. - Mark out where you are going to dig your holes, and get a long piece of rope or string and squeeze bottle tops on to it 70cm apart. Stretch the rope across the width of your field. 

Each bottle top marks the centre of a hole and makes sure that the holes are correctly spaced out. Mark out the rows of holes using a hoe. Each row should be 90cm apart. Just mark out the rows and holes you think can be completed that day. - On the same day as you mark a block of holes, dig the holes.The holes need to be oblong. They should be between 15cm wide, 35cm long and 15cm deep. - When you are ready to plant the grain, it is important to put some very fertile soil into the holes to help the crop to be stronger. Take some manure and good topsoil and mix it together, or use compost manure. Fill the hole with the mixture up to 5cm from the surface. That space will help capture more rain. - If you are planting maize, soak the seeds in some water for 6-7 hours before planting them.This speeds up germination and ensures that more will survive. When you plant the seeds, plant 4 seeds in the soil across the hole. Cover them with 2.5cm of the rich soil and manure mixture. After this, the soil in the hole should be about 2.5cm below the surface of the field. It should never be more than this. Clods (big lumps of soil) should always be broken up so that the soil makes good contact with the seed. - If you are planting sorghum, plant 5-6 seeds at each end of the planting hole after a good shower of rain. Cover the seeds with 2.5 cm of the rich soil and manure mixture. 

- The space at the top of the hole enables water to get to the plants when the rains come. Without this space the rain will just run off the land, taking a lot of the soil nutrients with it. - Weed around the holes regularly and each year you will find there will be fewer and fewer weeds. - Don’t be discouraged! Digging the holes now will mean they are ready for this year and you will not have to dig them next year. How to practice Conservation Farming. ENGLISH VERSION 5 C ompost manure is a natural fertilizer that helps your crops grow. It is better than chemical fertilizer because it is natural, free, and will not damage crops and the environment as some chemical fertilizers can. There are many ways to make compost manure, but the following method has been useful in some areas. Ask your neighbors in your Cluster what has worked well for them. Preparation of compost: 1. Choose an area for your compost pit measuring 4m by 4m. 2. Clean the area. 3. Dig a hole of diameter 3 - 4m and 1.5m deep. 4. Collect all the remains of the crops you have (e.g. leaves and stalks of maize, millet, beans) and cut these remains into small pieces. 5. Put these crop remains into the hole up to a depth of 0.5m. 6. Add 5 liters of ash. 7. Next add about 30cm (or as much as available) of animal dung (e.g. dung from pig, cow, goat or chicken). 8. Put another layer of crop leaves and stalks (0.5m). 9. Add another 5 liters of ash. 10. Repeat adding the leaves and stalks again until the hole is almost filled. 11. Finally add a layer of soil until the hole is filled. 12. While filling the hole with soil, put a long stick in the middle of the hole so it reaches the bottom. 

13. Leave the compost pit for 90 days (3 months). 14. During this period use your dirty water to water the compost pit. For example, after cleaning your house or clothes, empty the used water over the compost pit. If you have animals, you can also pour animal urine over the pit. 15. This adds extra nitrogen to the compost. 16. Try to water the compost pit in this way every day, or whenever water is available. 17. After 90 days the manure will be ready. Use the stick as a thermometer – when the compost is ready it should be hot and you may even see steam coming from the stick after you have removed it. Use of compost: When you have dug your holes for planting maize, millet or other crops, add one handful of your compost manure to each hole. Watch for the results! Preparing Compost Manure - a natural fertilizer. ENGLISH VERSION 6 Deforestation is the removal of trees and other woody vegetation cover. Forests and woodlands cover about a third of the world’s land surface. They regulate climate, protect water resources, provide forest products (e.g. timber, medicine, fruit, and more) worth billions of dollars and support a tremendous variety of plant and animal species. Yet they are being destroyed at a rate of 20 million hectares per year. Half of the world’s population depends on these forests for fuel, 

yet roughly 100 million people do not have enough fuel for minimal energy requirements. Major causes of deforestation: § Deforestation occurs when vegetation is cleared for activities like farming or grazing and uses such as: firewood, brick making, fish smoking, tobacco curing, tea drying, construction, and timber. § Forest degradation is when a forest becomes less diverse and resilient due to poor use and management (for example, when old trees are all cut, leaving mainly brush, or when a useful § species is all harvested so that it disappears from the forest, or when forest is heavily grazed, so that trees can’t grow to replace those that die). § Much of deforestation and forest land degradation results from a lack of awareness of the full value of trees. § In some cases, the value of trees may be known but poverty and the idea that there are no good alternatives lead people to clear trees. Consequences of Deforestation: § Soil erosion: lack of tree cover and root binding exposes soil to erosion. § Lack of forest resources: removing trees destroys habitats, reduces biodiversity, removes food and medicinal resources, and increases competition for construction materials. People will have to walk further for firewood, and if forest products are being bought, prices will rise. § Deforestation also means we lose the many other benefits of trees: Trees act as a windbreak, retain moisture, add oxygen to the air, and add nutrients to soil. Hence without trees the local climate will become drier with increased risk of flooding, wind erosion, decreasing soil fertility and diminished air quality. What can we do to prevent deforestation and forest degradation? 

§ Establish tree nurseries and distribute or sell seedlings to the community. § Use energy-saving cook stoves that use less firewood and charcoal. § Use alternative sources of energy and fuel when possible (e.g. heating from the sun, sawdust, coffee and risk husks, grass, weeds, crop wastes, animal waste). § Carry out tree planting activities. Become a successful, effective TIST group! Encourage § your neighbors and friends to join TIST as well. § Do not cultivate land bordering a river or swamp. Leave trees and vegetation to grow to protect these waters. § Be careful to not over-graze land. Limit animals’ access to tree seedlings that they may destroy to give the forest a chance to regrow. § Encourage agro-forestry or the use of woodlots. Having trees on your land provides good access to forest products and helps protect nearby forest. Deforestation and forest land degradation are serious problems. What can we do?

5 Ukataji miti na kuzorota kwa mashamba yenye misitu ni shida kubwa sana.Tunaweza kufanyeje? Ukurasa 6 Wanachama wa Giaki TIST Cluster wakati wa mkutano wao wa kila mwezi mwezi uliopita. KISWAHILI VERSION 2 USIFANYE hivi Kukata miti yote FANYA hivi Chagua mti mmoja mmoja. T unajivunia sana kuwa wanaTIST wote wanafuatilia maadili ya TIST na kuishi wakizingatia kandarasi waliyotia saini. Ni wanaTIST wachache waliovunja mkataba huo, wakakata miti yote na kuiuza kutumika vinginevyo. Kwa kweli ni chini ya asilimia moja ya mashamba elfu arobaini katika Kenya imekatwa katika miaka nane ambayo TIST imekuwa Kenya. Madhumuni ya kupunguza miti ni ili miti iliyobaki ikue na dhamani yake ipande inavyofaa. Miti hii iliyokatwa pia hutupa kuni, fito, vifaa vya ujenzi na faida nyinginezo kwa mshiriki wa TIST. Hii ndio sababu tuna sera ya kuanzisha msitu endelevu kwa kuvuna miti isiyopitisha asilimia tano baada ya miti kufikisha miaka kumi. Wakati mwanaTIST mmoja napoamua kukata shamba lote, wanadhuru wanaTIST wote katika kikundi chao, katika cluster yao na katika Kenya yote. Kwa kweli, matendo ya wachache hao yaweza kuletea shida kila mmoja. Tunatarajia wanakikundi wengine na wanacluster kuwa makini na kuhakikisha kuwa hakuna anayekata miti kabla ya wanapopaswa. 

Kikundi cha OLC kitafanya kazi na baadhi ya washiriki waliofanya kosa na kukata miti kufanya mpango wa hao watu kurudisha sehemu ya faida yao katika mradi wa TIST ili waweze kusaidi wakulima wengine badala ya kuwaumiza. Tulipotia saini mkataba wa makubaliano wa GhG, tuliahidi kutunza miti tunayopanda katika TIST na kuiacha kukua kwa muda wa miaka thelathini kabla ya kuvuna. Hii ni sababu moja ya kwa nini ni muhimu kufikiria kwa makini kuhusu ni miti ya aina gani tunayotaka kukuza katika mashamba yetu. Kupunguza miti na kupogoa kwaweza kusaidi kuweka miti ikiwa yenye afya na kutupa vitu vinavyotumika miti bado ikikua. Kwa ujumla, maana ya kupunguza na kuipogoa miti ni kuboresha afya ya kila mti, pamoja na ya msitu wote. Hili litafanyika kupitia kuichagua miti iliyo bora zaidi katika msitu. Kwa aina nyingi za miti, pamoja na miti ya mbao, grevilea, mikaratusi na cypress, miti hii san asana huwa miti mikubwa zaidi, kila mti ukiwa na shina moja lililonyooka. Miti yaweza kuwa na mahitaji mbalimbali ya nafasi kulingana na aina, mahali, ilivyopandwa (miti iliyo mashambani ya mimea ya vyakula ama miti iliyopandwa ili kupunguiza upepo) na tabia nchi, lakini kuna kanuni zingine za kijumla hutumika. Kukuza miti iliyo na nguvu na afya, nafasi ya mita mbili hupendekezwa. Nafasi hii ni sawa kwa miti mingi ya TIST (grevillea na cypress), lakini kumbuka kuwa miti mingine huitaji nafasi zaidi (miembe na mikandamia, kwa mfano). Kuipa miti nafasi inayofaa huisaidia kupata maji na virutubisho tosha vya kuikuza hadi panapowezekana. Nafasi ndogo zaidi inaruhusiwa miti ilipo michanga. Miti inapokua, miti mingine itakuwa mikubwa kuliko majirani. Hii ndiyo miti wapaswa kuacha. Kuchhagua ni miti gani ya kukata, angalia miti iliyo bora zaidi na ujue kama ina nafasi ifaayo. Kama haina, wafaa kutoa miti mingine iliyo karibu. Unapofanya uhamuzi wa kupunguza miti, kumbuka kuwa kiwango cha ukuaji hutofautiana kulingana na aina ya mti. Kama mwembe unakua karibu na mikaratusi mingi, mwembe unaweza kuwa mdogo na unaokua pole pole zaidi ya mikaratusi inayokua haraka,

 lakini kwa uhakika haupaswi kukatwa kwa sababu ni mdogo zaidi! Kwa kweli, mti kama mwembe ni wenye umuhimu mkubwa kwa sabubu ya matumizi yake katika kupeana matunda ya kula nay a kuuza. Mazoezi bora unapopunguza miti 

• Iruhusu miti kukua hadi ukomavu. 

• Punguza hadi inavyofaa (nambari ya miti katika ekari). Katika TIST, twaweza kuchagua hadi asilimia tano ya miti yetu, baada ya miaka kumi, kupunguza kupitia kuchagua inavyokua na kutuletea pesa.

 • Kata miti inayokufa, iliyo na magonjwa, inayooza na isiyo na ubora.

 • Linda miti kutokana na uharibifu kutakana na ukataji wa magogo. 

• Tumia njia za ukataji magogo zenye athari chache inapowezekana. 

• Himiza wingi wa aina za miti. 

• Fuatilia msitu wako ili kujua kukizuka wadudu na magonjwa.

 • Shirikiana na kampuni za serikali katika kudhibiti kuzuka kwa wadudu na magonjwa. 

• Zuia mioto ya msitu. Kupunguza miti yako ili ikue vizuri, jiepushe na kukata miti yote. KISWAHILI VERSION 3 a) Ni njia gani bora zaidi ya kuwapanga watu wakati wa mkutano wa Kikundi kidogo? Msiwe na meza kwa sababu inajenga vizuizi kati ya watu. Msiwe na kiti cha kukaliwa na mtu aliye na muhimu zaidi kati yenu. Katika TIST, sote twaketi kwa njia iliyofanana. Sote hukaa chini udongoni au sote kukalia viti. b) Mtafanyaje kukiwa na watu zaidi ya kumi na wawili wanaotaka kujiunga na kikundi chenu? Kama kuna zaidi ya watu kumi na wawili wanaotaka kujiunga na kikundi chenu ni vizuri zaidi kuanzisha kikundi kipya. Kikundi chaweza kujigawanya na kuwa vikundi viwili, ama wanakikundi asili watatu au wanne wawe msingi wa kikundi kipya. Hii ni vizuri kuliko mwanakikundi mmoja kujaribu kuanzisha kikundi peke yake. Kumbuka kuanza uongozi wa mzunguko kutoka mwanzo. c) Ni mbinu zipi mwaweza kutumia ikiwa nishati ya kikundi iko chini? Gawanya kikundi kiwe wawili wawili na uulize kila jozi kujadiliana kuhusu kazi iliyopo. Michezo ya kuigiza husaidia pia. Mara kwa mara kuwasimamisha na kila mtu kusema kitu kizuri ambacho kikundi chao kinafanya husaidia kuwapa watu motisha nyingine. Pia kumbuka kuuachisha mkutano usiwe mrefu. Kwa njia ya kuwa na msaidizi wa kiongozi anayesaidia kuweka masaa, unaweza kuelekeza nishati ya kikundi kuhakikisha kazi inafanyika katika muda uliopangiwa. Ratiba ya mkutano. Kutumia muda vizuri, kikundi kidogo chapaswa kuwa na ratiba ya mkutano iliyopangika vizuri. 

Hii ni muhimu kwa sababu itakusaidia kuzingatia yaliyo katika ajenda na mambo yaliyo muhimu zaidi. Ni muhimu pia kwa sababu katika TIST, tunajitolea kufanya kazi pamoja kwa muda mrefu ili kukua na kudumisha miti yetu katika soko la hewa. Tunahitaji kujua wanakikundi wenzetu vizuri, kwa sababu matendo ya kila mtu hushikilia kikundi chote na TIST yote. Ni muhimu pia, kwa kikundi chako kidogo kuwa na mikutano ya mara kwa mara, ikiwezekana mara moja kila wiki au mara moja kila wiki mbili. Hili litawapa wanakikundi chenu nafasi ya kuimarisha kikundi na kugawana na kujifunza mafunzo mapya. Wakati wa mkutano, ni muhimu kuzingatia mambo yaliyo muhimu. Vikundi vingi vya TIST vimeona utaratibu unaofuata ukiwa mwenendo bora zaidi ili kuwa na mikutano ya kufanikiwa: Hatua ya kwanza. Salamu na kujijulisha kwa wanakikundi wapya ( dakika tano kufika kumi na tano): Hakikisha kila mtu anajisikia nyumbani. Hakikisha ni fupi lakini muache kila mtu ajijulishe. Hatua ya pili.Maombi ya kuanza (Dakika mbili): Ombi fupi laweza kusaidia kuunganisha kikundi. Hatua ya tatu. Nyimbo (Dakika tano): Hizi zaweza kuwa zilizoandikwa na kikundi chako, au nyimbo zinazowatia watu nguvu kama nyimbo za kidini. Hatua ya nne. Kuitikiana kuhusu kazi na masaa (Dakika tano): Kiongozi anaeleza yatakayofanyika mkutanoni na wanakikundi waitikie kufanya kazi hiyo. Masaa yatakayotumika kwa kazi hiyo au mjadala yakubalianwe ili msaidizi wa kiongozi aweze kuweka masaa ya mkutano. Hatua ya tano. Kazi ya vikundi (saa moja): Ili kufanya vizuri zaidi, kazi yapaswa kujadilianwa mkutano wa mwisho ukiisha. Kazi zaweza kuwa pamoja na kugawana

 ni nini kila mtu amefanya ili kusaidia kazi za TIST, kugawana mienendo bora zaidi ya kufanya mambo tofauti, kufunza kuhusu vitu fulani na jambo lingine lolote la maana litakalosaidia kikundi chenu kukua . Hatua ya sita. Kujengana (Dakika tano): Kila mwana kikundi anasema jambo moja nzuri kwa kiongozi wa wiki hiyo kuhusu uongozi wake ulioonekana katika mkutano. Kuongezea, mtu yeyote aweza kusema ni zawadi gani katika uongozi ameona katika kiongozi huyo. Hatua ya saba. Ombi la kufunga (Dakika mbili): Mbinu za vikundi vidogo: Mwingiliano wa kikundi. KISWAHILI VERSION 4 B aada ya kuvuna, usiyachome mabaki ya mimea, badala yake yaache chini. Jinsi unavyoacha mabaki zaidi chini ndivyo unavyorutubisha udongo na kuufanya kuwa wenye rutuba. Safu ya haya mabaki yakizunguka chini ya mti au miche husaidia kuongeza kiwango cha maji katika udongo jambo ambalo huzuia miti kutokana na ukavu mingi. Kumbuka kuwa Mabaki ya mimea yanaweza pia kutengeneza mbolea. - Jaribu kuweka mifugo mbali kwani mifugo ikila itaacha mabaki machache yakifunika udongo. - Mashimo ya kilimo hai yafaa kuchimbwa kabla ya mvua kuja na ni muhimu kuanza kuyachimba mapema. 

- Tia alama utakapochimba mashimo yako, halafu utafute kamba ndefu na ufungie vifuniko vya chupa vikitengana na centimita sabini. Nyoosha kamba kuvuka shamba lako ili kila kifuniko kiwe kati kati ya shimo ili kuhakikisha kuwa mashimo yana nafasi inayofaa kati yao.Tumia jembe kutia alama ya kuonyesha mistari ya mashimo ili kila mstari uwe centimita tisini kutoka kwa huo mwingine. - Siku hiyo hiyo unapotia alama, chimba mashimo yaliyo na umbo la mviringo. Yafaa kuwa na upana wa centimita kumi na tano, urefu wa centimita thelathini na tano na centimita kumi na tano kwenda chini. - Unapokuwa tayari kupanda mbegu, ni muhimu kuweka udongo wenye rutuba shimoni ili kusaidia kutia mimea nguvu. Changanya mbolea na udongo mzuri wa juu, au utumie mbolea ya mimea. Ikiwa una saruji na mbolea ya viwanda, iweke shimoni na ujaze kila shimo na mchanganyiko huo hadi centimita tano chini ya ardhi ya kawaida. - Ikiwa unapanda mahindi, lowesha mbegu kwa maji masaa sita kufika saba kabla ya kupanda. Jambo hili hufanya mbegu kuota haraka na kuweza kuishi. Unapopanda mbegu, panda mbegu nne udongoni kuvuka shimo na ufunike na mchanganyiko wa udongo mnono na mbolea sentimita mbili na nusu. Udongo katika shimo utakuwa sentimita mbili na nusu chini ya ardhi ya kawaida. 

Mavimbe makubwa magumu ya udongo yanafaa kuvunjwa ili udongo ufikie mbegu vizuri. - Iwapo unapanda mtama, panda mbegu tano au sita katika kila mwisho wa shimo baada ya mvua nzuri halafu ufunikie mbegu na centimita mbili na nusu za udongo wenye rutuba uliochanganyika mbolea. - Nafasi inayoachwa juu husaidia maji kuingia kwa mimea wakati mvua inapofika. Bila nafasi hii maji ya mvua yatabebwa juu ya ardhi na kubeba virutubisho vingi. - Toa magugu karibu na mashimo kila baada ya muda na kila mwaka hutapata kutakuwa na magugu machache na machache zaidi. - Usife moyo! Kuchimba mashimo sasa kutamaanisha yatakuwa tayari mwaka huu na hutachimba tena mwaka ujao. Jinsi ya kulima kwa njia ya kilimo hai. KISWAHILI VERSION 5 M boleo ya majani ni mbolea ya kiasilia ya kusaidia mimea yako kukua. Ni bora zaidi ya mbolea za viwanda kwani ni ya kiasili na haina athari za kuumiza mimea na mazingira. Kuna njia nyingi za kutengeneza mbolea, lakini njia ifuatayo imekuwa saidifu katika baadhi ya maeneo. Uliza majirani zako katika cluster yako ni gani imewaonekania. Utayarishaji wa mbolea: 1) Chagua eneo lenye upana wa mita nne na urefu wa mita nne la kuchimba shimo lako la taka 2) Fagia sehemu hiyo 3) Chimba shimo la mduara lenye upana wa mita tatu au nne na mita moja na nusu kina. 4) Kusanya masala yote ya mimea uliyo nayo na uyakate kuwa sehemu ndogo ndogo ( kwa mfano majani na mashina ya mahindi, mtama, maharagwe) 5) Weka masala haya ya mimea katika shimo ilo hadi kina cha nusu mita. 6) Halafu ongeza lita tano za jivu 7) Halafu uongeze centimita thelathini (ama kiwango 

kilichopo) za kinyesi cha mifugo (kwa mfano kinyesi cha nguruwe, ng’ombe, mbuzi au kuku). 8) Ongeza safu nyingine ya majani ya mimea na mashina (nusu mita) 9) Ongeza lita zingine tano za jivu. 10) Ongeza majani na mashina tena hadi shimo likaribie kujaa. 11) Hatimaye, ongeza safu ya udongo hadi shimo lijae. 12) Unapokuwa ukiweka udongo shimoni, ingiza fimbo ndefu katikati mwa shimo hadi ifike chini ya shimo. 13) Liache shimo la taka kwa miezi mitatu (siku tisini). 14) Katika kipindi hiki tumia maji yako machafu kuweka katika shimo hili. Kwa mfano, baada ya kuosha nguo au nyumba, yamwage maji uliyotumia juu ya shimo. Ikiwa una mifugo waweza pia kumwaga mikojo ya mifugo juu ya shimo. 15) Jambo hili litaongeza naitrojeni kwa mboleo yako. 16) Jaribu kuweka maji kila siku kwa njia hii, ama wakati maji yapo. 17) Baada ya siku tisini mbolea itakuwa tayari. Tumia fimbo kama kipima joto – mbolea inapokuwa tayari lazima iwe na joto na waweza kuona mvuke ukitoka kwa fimbo hiyo baada ya kuitoa. Matumizi ya mbolea hii: Ukishachimba mashimo yako ya kupanda mahindi, mtama au mimea mingine, ongeza mboleo kiwango kinachotoshea katika kiganja chako katika kila shimo. Angalia ili kujua matokeo! Kutengeneza mbolea kutokana na mimea – mbolea ya kiasili. KISWAHILI VERSION 

6 Ukataji misitu ni kutolewa kwa miti na mimea mingine yenye mbao. Misitu na vichaka hufunika sehemu moja juu ya tatu ya ardhi. Miti hubadilisha tabianchi, hulinda maji, hutupa vitu vinavyotokana na misitu (kwa mfano, mbao, dawa, matunda na vingine) vinavyo ughali mkubwa na huruhusu mimea na wanyama wengi tofauti kuishi. Hata hivyo inakatwa kwa mwendo kasi; hectare milioni ishirini kila mwaka. Nusu ya wanaoishi kwa hii dunia hutumia misitu kama nishati, hata hivyo watu kama milioni mia moja hawana nishati tosha kutumia kwa matumizi madogo madogo. Sababu za ukataji misitu § Ukataji miti hufanyika wakati mimea inakatwa ili kufungua shamba kutumika kwa njia nyingine kama kufungua shamba ili liweze kulimwa au kwa matumizi mengine kama kutumika kama kuni, kutengeneza matofali, kukausha samaki, kukausha majani chai, kujenga na kama mbao. § Kuzoroteka kwa shamba lenye msitu ni wakati msitu unakuwa na miti ya aina chache na unashindwa kuyavumilia mabadiliko yanayokuja kwa sababu ya utumizi na usimamizi mbaya (kwa mfano, miti mizee inapokatwa, ikiachwa midogo, ama aina fulani ikikatwa yote, hadi inapotea kutoka msituni, ama msitu unalishwa wanyama zaidi ya 

inavyoruhusiwa, hadi miti inashindwa kukua badala ya iliyokufa). § Ukataji miti na uharibifu wa shamba lenye msitu mwingi hutokana na kutokuwepo kwa ujuzi kuhusu thamani kamili ya miti. § Wakati mwingine, thamani ya miti yaweza kuwa inajulikana lakini umaskini na kutambulika kusio sahihi kuhusu ukosefu wa lingine la kufanya hulazimisha watu kukata miti. Shida zinazojitokeza kufuatilia ukataji wa misitu § Mmomonyoko wa Udongo:Ukosefu wa miti ya kufunika ardhi na mizizi huacha udongo hatarini na huruhusu mmomonyoko wa udongo. Ukataji miti na kuzorota kwa mashamba yenye misitu ni shida kubwa sana. Tunaweza kufanyeje? § Ukosefu wa rasili mali ya msitu tunayohitaji: kukata miti huharibu mahali pa wanyama pa kuishi, hupunguza viumbe hai/ bioanuwai, hutoa rasili mali ya chakula na dawa na huongeza ushindani ili kupata vifaa vyz ujenzi. Watu wanahitajika kutembea mbali zaidi ili kupata kuni, na bei za bidhaa zinazotoka misituni zinapanda juu sana. § Ukataji misitu unamaanisha ukosefu wa faida nyinginezo za miti: miti hupunguza upepo, 

uhifadhi unyevu, huongeza hewa safi hewani, na huongeza virutubisho udongoni. Kwa hivyo bila miti hali ya anga ya mahali hapo itakuwa kavu zaidi na kuongeza hatari ya mafuriko, mmonyoko wa udongo unaosababishwa na upepo, kupunguzwa kwa rutuba ya udongo na kupunguzika kwa usafi wa hewa. Tunaweza kufanyeje ili kuzuia ukataji wa miti? 1. Kuanzisha vitalu vya miti na kukuza miti ya kupanda na kupeana au kuuza miti kwa wanajamii. Twafaa kutia moyo wengine kupanda miti pia, na kujiunga na TIST! 2. Tumia meko ya kuokoa nishati, ambayo hutumia kuni na makaa chache 3. Tumia nishati badala inapowezekana (kwa mfano, joto la jua, machujo ya mbao, maganda ya kahawa, nyasi, magugu, mabaki ya mimea, taka za wanyama). 4. Kujihusisha na shughuli za upandaji miti za jamii. Kuweni kikundi kizuri cha TIST chenye mafanikio! 5. Himiza majirani na marafiki yako pia kuingia katika TIST 6. Usilime shamba lililopakana na mto. Iache miti na mimea kumea ili kulinda maji haya 7. Kuwa mwenye macho usije ukalisha mifugo shamba kuliko inavyoruhusiwa. Usitake mifufo ikaribie miche isije ikaharibu na kunyimu msitu nafasi ya kukua mara ya pili. 8. Himiza kilimo mseto na matumizi ya mashamba madogo ya miti. Kuwa na miti shambani mwako hukupa vitu vinavyotokana na msitu na husaidia kulinda msitu ulio karibu. Published by TIST-Kenya.
