In light of remote sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS) techniques, the study is an Land use Land endeavor to map LULC patterns of district Ganderbal of Kashmir Himalaya for the year cover, 2018. Images from Landsat-8 (OLI) were used to extricate land cover maps. The study Remote sensing, GIS, region was delineated through visual image interpretation technique into 10 Kashmir Landuse/Landcover classes viz, forest, forest scrub, grassland, snow, wasteland, Himal ayas agriculture, TOF, built-up, water body and wetland. LULC map (2018) so generated revealed that among all the LULC classes, forest occupied maximum area of the map i.e. 33.96 % while as wetland with an area of 1.35 % occupied minimum portion of the map. Article Info The LULC map was likewise validated using ground truth points. The overall classification accuracy of LULC map came out to be 90.14 % with kappa coefficient of Accepted: 0.8897. The outcomes of the study could be used as a spatial standard to illuminate land 04 October 2020 management and strategy choices made by organizers, specialists, environmentalists and Available Online: different stakeholders for sustainable LULC management in the district Ganderbal of the 10 November 2020 Kashmir Himalaya. Introduction benchmark necessity for sustainable management and planning of natural assets The capability of satellite based data as a (Read and Lam, 2002). Exact and opportune basis for producing significant information for land cover maps play a vital role in different LULC is at this point broadly perceived areas of the developing world including land (Lambin et al., 2003; Yuanet al., 2005; Saadat use planning, food security, modeling of et al., 2011), albeit starting endeavors were hydrology, and planning and management of made since mid seventies for application of natural resources. The investigation of various interpretation procedures in LULC conveyance of land cover is significant for mapping (Anderson, 1976). The significance legitimate comprehension of the earth’s key of exploring LULC and their effects is a qualities and processes, including profitability 3838 Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci (2020) 9(11): 3838-3847 of land, the variety of plant and animal Despite the fact that, there has been an species, and the biogeochemical cycles (Giri, expansion in LULC information bases using 2012). Foresters use land cover maps to create distinctive remote sensing procedures, there harvest management plans in a sustainable exists incredible variety nearby and scale of manner, coordinate biodiversity protection, study, purpose of mapping, classification and take part in climate finance activities like plans, types of mapping, and precision REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from appraisal. Sustainable LULC is vital not just Deforestation and forest degradation and the for the sustained livelihood of 115 million role of conservation, sustainable management Himalayan individuals, yet in addition a lot of forests and enhancement of forest carbon more individuals living in the adjoining Indo- stocks) in developing nations (Hall et al., Gangetic region have been sorely affected due 2011; Potapov et al., 2019). to quickened erosion because of wrong land- use rehearses in the Himalaya (Semwal et al., Land use land cover has been mapped from 2004). different sources like geographical maps, soil study associations, and statistical data and so In the present study multi-temporal satellite on; yet these are helpful for explicit purposes images of Landsat-8 (OLI) have been utilized only and are not truly reliable. However, with to map the LULC classes of district the advent of remote sensing technology, Ganderbal for the year 2018. With expanding every one of these issues have been cleared scale of human induced change and effects on out beating all the restrictions and have lead climate, it has gotten critical to have land to honest and speedy portrayal of the real assets inventory of the district. There have world in the most ideal manner. The advent of been restricted endeavors to examine the the free U.S. Landsat data strategy, the LULC and inventory of assets in the study longest running file, has frequently assisted region (Mehraj, 2018). Thusly, to address this with catching the most crucial human paucity of LULC baseline data set, the aim of exercises on the surface of Earth throughout the study is to generate land use land cover the previous 40 years (Kennedy et al., 2014). map of the Ganderbal district in the state of Landsat, in terms of frequency and coverage Jammu and Kashmir, India for the legitimate stays an ideal answer for viable capture and investigation of land use and its pattern, the evaluation where and when significant natural reason and its impact on the environment and and human-induced changes have happened, humanity. by demonstrating fundamental identification of on-going alterations (Kennedy et al., 2014; Materials and Methods Wulder et al., 2015).

The mechanical analysis revealed that soils were clay Author: Baseerat Binti Nabi laom, silty loam and loam in texture. The pH was slightly acidic to slightly Email: alkaline. The organic carbon content was high in all the three altitudes under [email protected] study. There was an erratic distribution of electrical conductivity in all the three altitudes. Introduction Apple (Malus domestica) has a diverse climatic adaptation and most of the apple varieties require about 1500 hours of chilling below 70C to break the rest period. Due to its chilling requirements, it grows best in relatively cooler climates than other deciduous fruits. Apple is one of the important fruit of Kashmir valley as all the requirements for its growth and development are met under temperate conditions of Kashmir valley. The average temperature should be around 21 to 24oC during the growing period.

  • An Over Look on Watershed Management with a Case Study of Ganderbal Watershed, Kashmir, India
    An Over look on Watershed Management with a case study of Ganderbal Watershed, Kashmir, India Ruhhee Tabbussum1, A.Q.Dar2 1.National Institute of Technology, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India 2.National Institute of Technology, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India ABSTRACT Land and water management is increasingly being based on watersheds, and the watershed, or integrated catchment, approach has received wide acceptance for implementing projects for the improvement of water quality. The watershed approach is being promoted as a means of bringing about environmental improvements, particularly at scales that require changes by multiple landholders. This paper provides an outline of the implementation of watershed programs in the Jammu and Kashmir, with particular reference to examples in Ganderbal District. Watershed implementation projects have in-built evaluation activities to monitor progress in terms of farmer participation and effectiveness of their participation. Outcome evaluations in terms of impacts on water quality are much more difficult, generally long term, and expensive.Conflicts are increasing over shared water resources between agriculture, industry, and urban domestic use as well as between State governments. Sustainable water management is thus crucial for economic development and livelihood of the people. Watershed management is necessary for the sustainable protection of natural resources and environmental health. Watershed management, which recognizes the hydrologic (water) cycle as the pathway that integrates physical, chemical and biological processes, is an important approach to achieving the goal of a sustainable environment. Watershed management projects are usually initiated in response to issues and concerns around existing environmental health, proposed land use practices, land use management or restoration demands.
