  • India Nation Action Programme to Combat Desertification
    lR;eso t;rs INDIA NATION ACTION PROGRAMME TO COMBAT DESERTIFICATION In the Context of UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION TO COMBAT DESERTIFICATION (UNCCD) Volume-I Status of Desertification MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT & FORESTS GOVERNMENT OF INDIA NEW DELHI September 2001 National Action Programme to Combat Desertification FOREWORD India is endowed with a wide variety of climate, ecological regions, land and water resources. However, with barely 2.4% of the total land area of the world, our country has to be support 16.7% of the total human population and about 18% of the total livestock population of the world. This has put enormous pressure on our natural resources. Ecosystems are highly complex systems relating to a number of factors -both biotic and abiotic - governing them. Natural ecosystems by and large have a high resilience for stability and regeneration. However, continued interference and relentless pressures on utilisation of resources leads to an upset of this balance. If these issues are not effectively and adequately addressed in a holistic manner, they can lead to major environmental problems such as depletion of vegetative cover, increase in soil ero- sion, decline in water table, and loss of biodiversity all of which directly impact our very survival. Thus, measures for conservation of soil and other natural resources, watershed development and efficient water management are the key to sustainable development of the country. The socio-ecomonic aspects of human activities form an important dimension to the issue of conservation and protection of natural resources. The measures should not only include rehabilitation of degraded lands but to also ensure that the living condi- tions of the local communities are improved.
