→ Recognition of the problem.
→ Analysis of the cause of the problem and its effects.
→ Development of alternative solutions to problems.

🔶 Restoration Phase
→ This phase includes two main steps:
→ Selection of the best solution to a problem identified.
→ Application of solutions to the problems of the land.

🔷 Improvement Phase
→ This phase deals with the overall improvement in the watershed and ensures all land is covered.
→ Attention is paid to agriculture, first management, production, forage production, and pasture management.
→ Social-economic conditions are considered to achieve the objectives of watershed management.
