This compendium of 51 papers is the outcome of the proceedings of International Symposium on ‘Land Degradation: Trends towards Sustainable Agriculture’ and the Commonwealth Geographical Bureau Workshop on ‘Food Security in South Asia’, organised by the Department of Geography, M.M.H. College, Ghaziabad. It addresses various contentious issues like monitoring land quality and sustainable agriculture; land use ethics, social and environmental implications of land degradation; land reclamation strategies and techniques; and public policy to achieve sustainable land use. The book will be quite beneficial for researchers and policy makers.
