Degraded and wastelands of India - Status and spatial distribution
Integrating the work on degraded and wastelands in India, with a detail on the nature and cause of degradation, extent of damage with right management strategies to bring them to 'productive health' Posted on 07 Dec, 2010 10:16 PM

This book by NAAS and ICAR builds-on and integrates work done by different institutes of the ICAR and the Department of Space in the area of degraded and wastelands in India. NRSA had already published the state level and country level information earlier. In addition, the nature and causes of the land degradation, and the degree and extent of damaged lands needed to be determined, so that appropriate management strategies could be designed and implemented in a defined time-frame to bring these lands to ‘productive health’.
