Renaturation project with small settlements along agro-ecological and permacultural principles
Region Almaty / Kasachstan
Introduction
This project "Boguty" is first and foremost a renaturation venture of a very dry semi-desert steppe area of about 5000ha, roughly situated 150km east of Almaty / Kasachstan.
Formative and characteristic of the site is an impressively beautiful changing landscape of soft, hilly, dry grass steppe areas on one side and abrasively rocky mountainous structures with steep canyons on the other side. Vegetation is dominated by xerophytic plants, dry steppe grass alternating with a rocky landscape. Significant are also various erosion ditches which are being formed, especially in many lower situated areas, within the typical and dominant eolian silt deposits. These erosion structures indicate temporary high surface water runoff events (i.e. heavy rainfalls and/or snow melting periods). http://en.stroystandart.info/pages-view-1.html
