Book Description
Agricultural terracing is intrinsically intertwined with the overall livelihoods, and living style and situation of people. This is most distinctly so in highlands of predominantly agricultural regions and countries. In many important ways, in the similar vein, the processes and patterns of sustained growth and development in human settlements, such as the rural settings in particular, have very strong linkages with agricultural terrace systems. Clearly, therefore, the need for and importance of improved and sustainable management of, and hence a better understanding about, these systems have been persistently growing. Besides technical and financial backing, a thorough understanding of and due consideration to the location and people are crucial. Only then, achieving the aims and ambitions of any conservation program would be possible. Being a brief yet balanced account of various vital aspects of agricultural terracing, this book should be of considerable interest and use to everyone concerned with using the land and preventing its degradation. However, its extensive readership may mostly comprise planners, policymakers, professional as well as student researchers, teachers and students of agriculture and forestry, agriculturists, silviculturists, pedologists, extension workers, environmentalists, conservationists, nature lovers, tourism promoters, resort managers, landscape architects and some farmers.
