INTRODUCTION
Participatory Rural Appraisal is an approach to incorporate the knowledge and options of rural
prople in the planning and management of development projects and programs. Robert
Chambers, a Fellow at the Institution of Development Studies (UK), first used the term Rapid
Rural Appraisal in 1983. In 1985, the first international conference to share experiences relating
to RRA was held in Thailand. This led to a rapid growth in the development of methods that
involved rural people in examining their problems, setting their own goals, and monitoring their
own achievements. By the mid 1990’s, the term RRA had been replaced by a number of other
terms including Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) and Participatory learning and Action
(PLA). PRA involves local people and outsiders from different sectors and disciplines. Outsiders
facilitate local people in collecting and analyzing information’s, practicing critical self-
awareness, taking responsibility and sharing their knowledge of life and conditions to plan and to
act.

The tools used in PR are secondary data reviews, participatory observations, semi- structured
interviews, mapping, time-line, trend, seasonal review, workshops etc.

WHAT IS PRA?
Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) is the process to analyze the actual and genuine situation of
the village by involving them and out its various aspects. It is a tool to motivate the local people
to engross into the knowledge sharing process about the important village characteristics like
basic services, amenities and demographic information. It’s an authentic and professional
method to accumulate the necessary information and statistics to prepare results of the research.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

This tool is basically used to encourage the participants to participate in the sharing process.
Various participatory methods and techniques are introduced at the time of implementation.
Participants are guided to elaborate the village situation and present through various means.
While using this tool social, cultural and economical development would be studied.

OBJECTIVES OF PRA
To understand and collect the very basic information about the village in terms of water,
sanitation, solid waste, agriculture, energy sources etc.
 To identify priorities and opportunities for bio-industrial watershed projects
 To encourage community participation in the analysis of their problems
 To develop workable action plans regarding paryavaran santulit samruddh gram yojana

Structure of the Report

This Report is the compilation of all the observation made, information obtained and overall
experiences of the PRA exercise conducted in Konkal Village over a period of 2 days. The
chapter 2 and 3 portrays individual Activities carried out in the village and the learning’s from
each activity.

Background:
Konkal village is located in Yadgir Tehsil of Yadgir district in Karnataka, India. Yadgir is
nearest town to Konkal village.Konkal Village is 31.9 km Distance via SH16 from Yadgir
District. Located on Raichur Road. Konkan Village is having nearby 4786 acres of land and rain
fall of Konkal village is 432.4mm.

The census of India figures its population is 6234 including 3160 males and 3074 females.The
village is having 790 households are recorded living in the village.

4
Name of the Village:- Konkal
Gram Panchayat :-Konkal
Taluka:-Yadgiri
District:-Yadgiri
Total Population:-6234
Total Houses:-790.
So many stories are there behind the name called Konkal. One of the source says that actually
some person named Konkal came into this place to live peacefully. His father was one of the
richest person in Andhra Pradesh. Konkal left his home and came into this place. Konkal also
stated his business and Farming on this land. Gradually peoples were started living with him.
That’s why the name is kept on the name of Konkal. Very few and old people knew this. But the
new generation is unaware about the fact behind this village name.

INTRODUCTION:
Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) is a systematic, but intensive action in which a multi –
disciplinary team and community members jointly and quickly assess community
needs/problems and identify project activities to address these needs. Need assessment feasibility
studies and evaluation of development activity impacts.
PRA is an approach to facilitating community matrix scoring – rely heavily on visualization and
diagramming. However, what distinguishes PRA more than any of its techniques is its emphasis
on participation.PRA practitioners generally believe that only when participants are in full
control of needs assessment, goal-setting, planning, policy making, implementation and
evaluation. Only then this process be considered fully participatory.

PRA is both an attitude and a methodology. It helps outsiders to understand village systems by
using visual techniques of diagrams, models, counting/quantification devices as well as
techniques of direct observation and discussion with villagers. But it relies on a particular mind
set. Some of the terminology being used in PRA is explained here.

 Fact : A thing done, an actual occurrence, a piece of evidence presented as having

objective reality.
 Opinion: A view or judgment formed in the mind about a particular matter; a belief
stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge.
 Hearsay: Something heard from another
 Inference: The act of passing from one proposition, statement or judgment considered as
true another whose truth is believed to follow from that of the former.
 Assumption: A fact or statement taken for granted or supposed to be true.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS PRA
Introductory session of PRA was conducted by team members with Zilla Parishad Member,
President of Gram Panchayat, Panchayat Development Officer( PDO)and the village
accountant. The two days PRA schedule and activities were briefly discussed with members
before starting the actual session. To make effective PRA and even though they are localized,
we took the help of Four Research Scholars of the Department of Social Work from
Gulbarga University, Kalaburagi. They are also having well knowledge of PRA. They are
also helping to convert the language and also to understand the villager’s language. We
introduced the tools and techniques with specification for work in the meeting and observed
positive response from the participants.

RESOURCE MAPPING:
After briefing the actual PRA started with Resource Mapping. The Village Resource Map is
a tool that helps us to learn about a community and its resource base. The primary concern is
not to develop an accurate map but to get useful information about local perceptions of what
natural resources are found in the community and how they are used.

During PRA we have drawn village Map with the help of Villagers, in which we added house
locations, agriculture land, waste land and wild land were included. The map indicates public
and private infrastructure, main road, link road, village streets, Public toilets and temples, etc.
In this mapping we indicated the location of water supply sources too. For Resource maping
we followed satellite maps along with village Khasara maps for marking. With the help of
Gram Panchayat member and all villagers we marked the required locations according to
EDP sub plans. The resource mapping findings are as follows:

VILLAGE RESOURCE MAPPING IN KONKAL VILLAGE, YADGIR, KARNATAKA

TRANSECT WALK:
Transects are an ideal points of departure for a research/planning process in a village,
because we establish the villagers as the experts on living condition of that area. As villager
and facilitators walk through the village, they can observe both natural and build aspects of
the environment. During the transect participants locates and pinpoints the various physical
aspects of the village land. Conditions and physical features such as soils slopes, soil types,
farming practices, status of crops grown, deforestation, soil erosion and soil & water
Management. Through the direct field observation and exchange of information farmers learn
to identify production problems which will gradually lead to the identification their causes
and possible solutions. The findings can be mapped and later reported separately.

BIODIVERSITY
Various plants were observed while transect walk especially Neem trees are seen scattered
the directions of the village. Trees like tamarind, Yedi Babhul and Ficus religiosa etc
observed on the outskirt. Babhul is used mainly as firewood and no more plants planted here
for financial support. These plants grown naturally. At the outskirt of the village some other
catagories like shrubs, bushes etc are seen on the road side. Sugar apples are also there at
outskirt of the village.

AGRICULTURE
Most of the farmers cultivate the crops like Pearl Millet, pigeon peas, Jowar and cotton. Support to
the main road they are also cultivating some vegetables, which are required to their house.they are
also doing horticulture.
Farmers are Not adopted any irrigation method in the cultivation. They are totally depend upon rain.
Only some farmers are having well in their land. They use the motor to pump water for their land. But
only few well seen in the villagers land.

SOIL
Black and some red soil noticed while transact walk in the village and the black soil
percentage is more than red soil. Villagers are also using Fertilizers to increase the fertility of
soil.

75% land is having black soil and 25% is red/mix soil noticed.

8
 CONNECTIVITY
Village is not having proper connectivity of state transport facility from district head quarter
Yadgiri. Only two buses comes and goes and those are also not having proper time.
Villagers are going by Private vehicles like Jeep, Tamtam (Auto) and cruisers to the market
place. And this village is very near to Andhra Pradesh Border. And Narayanpet (Andra
Place) is having 20 km distance from the village. Only 30 min way from here. So some
villagers also to Narayanpet Market to buy or sell goods and needful things. Destroyed
internal roads found at the time of observation. But the Ydgiri road and Narayanpet Roads
are well developed and good roads.

GENERAL
Both kacha and pakka houses are seen in the Konkal village. Temples, Dargah and Maszid
exists in the village. Village economy is almost equal level. But no particular or large source
is there. Agriculture is become source for the village peoples. Even though ll wells in the
village are empty. No underground drainage system is available in the village. But the
pipeline from the house of the peoples connected to the underground drainage system. but by
the name of some development work those are all destroyed and not repaired yet.
Community Toilet found in the village for both Men and Women. But nobody uses that
properly. It is not maintained. Villagers not using that. That is completely become dirty. Only
nearby 20% peoples are having Individual toilets at their home with septic tank provision.
Lack of solid waste collection system is noticed in the village. Villagers on sweep roads
which are in front of their house. Main road and other roads are not cleaned. And there is also
no proper place for solid waste dumping.
SEASONAL CALENDER
A seasonal calendar is participatory tool to explore seasonal changes (e.g. gender-specific workload,
diseases, income, expenditure etc.). The objective behind organizing this activity is to learn about
changes in livelihood over the year and to show the seasonality of agricultural and non agricultural
workload, food availability, human diseases, gender – specific income and expenditure, water, forage,
credit and holidays.
A seasonal calendar in this context is a list of important activities and events throughout the year. It
helps to identify the busiest months, times for specific activities, crop sequence and the period of
labour demand for men, women and youths.

Because this Konkal place is very hot place. No times rains found here. That’s why people go
for cultivation after summer time only. And Jowar, Pearl Millet, Pigeon Peas, Rice,Corn and
Finger Millet they prefer most of the times with the help of wells in their own agriculture
land. But all the times they grow vegetables which become profitable for their own as well as
from the view point of the economical support.

We had discussion with this group on the facilities and services available in the village in
connection with EDP sub Plans. The group members discussed the issues they are facing
as well as gave their suggestions to improve the conditions. The discussion points are as
follows:

 Sanitation is the major issue of the village as very less households are with toilet
facility. The rest goes for open defecation as there is no provision of community
toilets especially for women.
 There is need of two more community toilets and also there is need of
maintenance of existing public toilets, which are in very bad condition.
 Promotion of Individual toilets is very poor and need motivation for individual
toilets rather than community toilets.
 No support from Gram Panchayat regarding individual sanitation construction.
 No proper solid waste collection and disposal system followed in the village.
 Need solid waste containers in the village and mainly at the junction point.
 Villagers need guidance and support for small scale business.
 The water supply scheme is available in the village but it is not sufficient.
 Main roads also have to be maintained.
 Water purifying unit is needed to the villagers.
 Need strong bridge to go for Nandepalli village.
 Need one more cremation ground with compound to limit and secure that.

LIVELIHOOD RESOURCES MAPPING

Lively hood analysis aims to examine the details of Individuals or groups livelihoods
in term of income, assets, expenditure, consumption, etc. A wide range of methods
was used to discuss a broad range of issues. Two main categories of analysis were
considered. Firstly, occupational and employment issues were raised, generally at
community level, which provided a profile of area. Ownership of livestock and
agricultural production at community level was also discussed. Secondly, individual
livelihood was examined, which was focused on income and expenditure etc.
Seasonal changes over time were also discussed. Framing is the main occupation of
the villagers both subsistence cropping and cash cropping is done in the village.
Villagers are following both synthetic as well as organic fertilizers for their crops.
Crop residue and grass burning is seen followed by the villagers. Vegetable
cultivation giving additional support to regular crops and maximum crop are
depended on rain. And only some are having well in their land. The small scale
business is not developed yet in the village. SHG groups are there but they are also
not aware of the government schemes, plans and programmes.
