    Land As A Resource

    Uploaded by

    Dhaval M Parsana
    Land is a critically important national resource that supports all living organisms and forms the basis of infrastructure like roads, industries, and housing. In India, land resources include agricultural, commercial, residential, and barren land, with 54.7% of total land used for agriculture. As population and urbanization increase, land is under tremendous pressure for housing and development, resulting in high land prices, scarcity of land, and more land being used residentially and commercially rather than for agriculture. Solutions include improving land distribution, relaxing building laws, and developing waste and barren land.
