Research on the integrated system of the rainfed rice cultivation area in South Asia from the viewpoint of environmental planning

本项目在南亚进行实地调查，目的是：(1)分析由于引进灌溉计划而引起的区域生态系统变化；(2)确定重建研究地区生态平衡所需的主要因素；(3)详细阐述作为学术领域的“环境管理”概念框架。这是一个为期四年的项目的一部分，始于1987年。1987年进行了一次实地调查，1988年组织了一次讲习班，总结上述调查的结果。整个项目的理论框架于1987年确定。本项目旨在(i)分析研究地区在过去两年，即进行初步研究后发生的变化，以及（ii）对1987年和1989年的研究结果进行比较研究，以阐述上述概念框架。1990年8月1日至9月20日在项目框架内在印度泰米尔纳德省的Egapullmallu村和尼泊尔特莱平原的Mohana村进行了实地调查。

This project conducts a field survey in South Asia in order to (i) analyse changes in regional eco-system due to introduction of irrigation schemes, (ii) determine the predominant factors required to re-establish ecological balance of the study area, and (iii) elaborate the conceptual framework for "environmental management" as an academic field. This is a part of a four years long project, which commenced in 1987. A field suvey was conducted in 1987 and a workshop was organized in 1988 to summerise findings of the said survey. Theoretical framework of the entire project was determined in 1987. This project aims at (i) analysing the changes in the study area occurred in last two years, namely after conducting the initial research, and (ii) conducting a comparative study on the findings both in 1987 and 1989 to elaborate the above mentioned conceptual framework. A field survey was conducted within the framework of the project on 1 August to 20 September 1990 at (i) Egapullmallu Villeage, Tamil Nadai District, India, and (ii) Mohana Villeage, Terai Plain, Nepal.
