  5. Impact on farmers livelihoods As You Sée in the aboveslide how much olive treeproductivityincreased and by simple calculationswecanseethat the productivityincreased by 125 kg olive to give 30 kg olive oil which means 120 jd per dunum .

  8. Recommendations to policy-makers to scale-up the innovation, and to remove constraints • The best way to achieve sustainable and true community development is to paying attention to the needs of local communities; giving them a chance to take about their own problems; and working with them to solve these problems, in addition to make sure not to promise them things that cannot be achieved. • Associations of water users are urgently needed especially in the areas where springs and waterways exist in order to preserve the sustainability of available establishments. • It is necessary to make sure that these associations have the necessary capacities for managing and preserving available constructions, as well as undertaking the needed training for its members. • It is highly important to pay attention to environmental consequences of the activities we undertake. Available projects, and even associations, may receive additional fund
