be conducted in two ways. One way is with respect to the yield, and another with respect to improvements in soil and water, climate, and ecosystem. To achieve effective results, researches, problems and strategies should be supported. Establishment of a ready market for the produce from the compact hardpan soil should be initiated in the form of community markets, associations or cooperatives so that communities may be encouraged to participate. The experiment can be replicated using other economic plants for other potential target groups. This may include public relations and trainings both in theory and practice in villages, schools and other community areas. Figure 9.
