194 - Practice mixed species cropping systems to prevent rapid spread of disease
195 - Apply local and imported pesticides and Insecticides
196 - Introduce biological control measures
285 - Use contour planting to prevent soil erosion during floods or storms
286 - Practice minimal tillage agriculture
287 - Utilize vetiver grasses to hold and prevent topsoil loss from gardens
288 - Utilize animal manure to counteract soil nutrient leeching in rainy times
322 - Plant pasture grass species that can withstand flood conditions (para and elephant)
323 - Plant pasture grass species that can tolerate water (papolo and beans)
324 - Plant fodder tree species in pastures that tolerate water
325 - Move bullock to less flood prone areas including hill side grazing areas, and plateaus
326 - Make advance arrangements where bullock could be moved in case of flooding in the primary pastures
327 - Remove bullock immediately from erosion-prone flooded areas
328 - Keep bullock pastures in grass at all times to hold top soils in place during floods
329 - Control the pooling of water in pasture eroded depressions to combat mosquito breeding
330 - Do not select aggressive Brahman bullock in flood prone areas, as they dig
331 - Do not select aggressive African fowl in flood prone areas, as they dig
389 - Apply local and imported herbicides (and chemical injections)
