Haraghie Stone Bund
The stone bund is an embankment constructed along the contour to minimize soil erosion and prevent runoff damage from downstream fields. It is constructed from stone/soil, with a ditch at the upper side of the bund for stabilisation. The technology is suitable for areas with gentle to undulating slopes and in cultivated areas with moderate soil depth.
