This part of the study aims to describe and analyze the ecological situation of five<br />
investigation areas and should check the ecological conditions for farming by irrigation with<br />
water from Khovd Gol. So this part of the study is mainly focused on the water and the soil<br />
situation in the suggested areas and tries to make clear, how the possibilities are to be<br />
evaluated from the point of view of environmental load and reaction.<br />
The drainage basin of Buyant Gol covers an area of 2.425 km 2 . Glaciers are part of it.<br />

Investigation Areas<br />
Five investigation areas have been suggested mostly for rehabilitation of former farm land on<br />
the alluvial fan of Buyant Gol north of the city of Khovd. Two areas belong to Myangad sum,<br />
two to Khovd sum and one to Buyant sum. The areas had been selected by a group of sum<br />
governors, land officers, engineers and land owners. Coordinates of the different<br />
investigations areas (see Map.5) were taken by GPS.<br />
The Buyant Gol delta is a huge alluvial fan, which pushed the Khovd Gol to the northern side<br />
of Khovd Gol valley. Both rivers are tributary to the Khar Us Nuur.<br />
