| dc.description | The increasing human population in developing countries is putting pressure on their finite land resources and causing land degradation. The majority of households depend on land and other natural resources for fulfilling their immediate needs and achieving their long-term livelihood ambitions. In developing countries like India, land degradation has been exacerbated in the absence of effective land use planning, leading to overexploitation of land resources. As a sequel, misery for large segments of local population and destruction of valuable bio-diversity is increasing by many folds. An integrated approach to planning the use and management of land resources entails the involvement of all stakeholders in the process of decision making on the future of the land and the identification and evaluation of all biophysical and socioeconomic attributes of land units. This requires the identification and establishment of a use or non-use of each land unit that is technically appropriate, economically viable, socially acceptable and environmentally non-degrading. Current land use issues, which require a resolution formulated with the aid of holistic approach in the rural areas, are frequently derived from environmental versus developmental conflicts. | - |
